poetry and prose by stephen chute
Friday, May 16, 2025
in need of ear plugs
there are some noises that
bother you
more than others,
a barking dog,
all night,
outside,
a baby crying on the bus.
someone chewing
their food loudly
at the table beside you.
Yoko Ono's
music.

that kind of boy
the wrecking ball
eating light and yet still needing stretch pants
the Sunday paper coupons
failure
telling Becky to get over it
the over sixty protest
instant karma
the first grade report card
her daily circle
the concert pulpit
punch drunk on love
before the school bus came
nothing yet
that can't be me
picking blueberries
less adventurous
why even think anymore
i think we can make money on this debacle
Violet at the deli counter
flexible hours
the red bulb is blinking
three days of rain
the girl fight outside of a bar
breakfast at denny's
the shampoo girl
now i remember
a new kid behind the counter
boiling water
oh, sugar pie
the thin walls and floors and ceilings
the bottom line
the subway car we lived in
the soup and cold compress
don't settle
four seasons
summing each other up
the daily morning phone call
waiting for help to come along
take the long way around
don't cash until Tuesday
chewing on beef jerky all day
dear Russia
Friday was payday
Best on the Beach
here we are
until further notice
her collection of sea shells
leftovers
better days are coming
the wagging tail and the butcher
the shaving mirror
or is it just today?
something to do before bed
finding home
the three-day weekend
the arched shadow and hiss
the quiet husband
never the horse's fault
same old
she's absolutely right
step lightly
i blame technology
solving the math of you
Joe's autopen
the clearing of birds
the puddle of your dress on the floor
keep it moving
the green people
going shopping with women
his heartfelt prayer at dinner
rare happy endings
will the world run out of chickens?
one card fits all
waiting for the governor to call
a peculiar gift
sorry i said i'm sorry
Safeway has fish now
the local camper deluxe
my goal for today
the calm water
the seven year itch
the lidocaine blues
just passing through
no one to blame it on
a little dab will do you
my robot is on order
his childhood
they are all aliens
back to bed
the ex-patriots from tv land
my mother, my phone
taking the doctor's advice
finding yourself
but it doesn't last
only the caught say let's move forward
how to be a politician
watching the river flow by
change between the cushions
the hidden room
