Andrew or a Joseph
This dapper gentleman is Andrew Carruth Cahoon. My great-great grandfather. His father was Reynolds Cahoon,1790. One of the first to join Joseph Smiths merry band of men who started the Church of Latter Day Saints. Andrew was born in 1824. His son Joseph was born in 1858. He had two boys named Andrew,1895, and Joseph,1905. Joseph died in 1933. I don't know of what. He is buried in Salt Lake City. Andrew had a son named Joseph Clifford Cahoon,1942. Presumably,named after his uncle. Joseph Sr., had me,Joseph Jr., in 1965. He died in 1990.I have two sons. That's right, Joseph III and Andrew. That's six generations of having a Joseph or Andrew. Glorious.

Bluebird
Charles Bukowski
there's a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I'm too tough for him,
I say, stay in there, I'm not going
to let anybody see
you.
there's a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I pur whiskey on him and inhale
cigarette smoke
and the whores and the bartenders
and the grocery clerks
never know that
he's
in there.
there's a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I'm too tough for him,
I say,
stay down, do you want to mess
me up?
you want to screw up the
works?
you want to blow my book sales in
Europe?
there's a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I'm too clever, I only let him out
at night sometimes
when everybody's asleep.
I say, I know that you're there,
so don't be
sad.
then I put him back,
but he's singing a little
in there, I haven't quite let him
die
and we sleep together like
that
with our
secret pact
and it's nice enough to
make a man
weep, but I don't
weep, do
you?
