The Hyphen |
|
When he was diagnosed with a disease containing a hyphen, interest grew |
|
within the hospital. |
|
Physicians visited from departments which had no hyphen diseases. |
|
A group of doctors even came from Buffalo, asking him questions and |
|
texting their impression to each other. |
|
They further asked him to recommend a strip joint |
|
and he told them he knew only of Peaches Flamb |
|
, |
|
a Gentlemen's Club, but only because Channel Six |
|
had interviewed neighbors objecting to sex |
|

A poem or fragment, derived from Frank |
|
B. Ford[1]'s Google Drive. Ford was an experimental poet |
|
and playwright, and it |
|
was his wish to have his work publicly archived online |
|
after his death. |
