Walking new body on ‘Frisco’s Embarcadero,

Pacifica Radio blasts radical paranoia in general 

-- but now specifically about how my radioactive 

titanium left knee and hip are alt-right gov’t’s 

way to get back at moi for protesting Trump.

Despite hard work + pretty good pedigree,

this geriatric Jewish word-tinkerer’s best friend is 

the most undereducated as well as youngest member 

of our men’s group --  the only guy interested in

having children -- and also a half-Irish widower.

As far as he knows, never had kids of his own while I 

have 3 off-spring plus 6 grandsons. He commutes monthly 

to stroll with parents through hometown Bahston Gahden. 

But other Tuesdays all the guys skulk out from individual 

podunks to instantly become ourselves -- or anyone else.
