Poem - even smile / living on nothing

i remember you
and your pistol tatoos
in escondido

i hope you
aren't dead or
hurt or in jail

but you
never know

because escondido
was like last stop
before the desert

remarkable
creatures we are

how much
of a beating
we can take

remarkable
how one can
make it look
tolerable

even smile
living on nothing
