Pulp Poem of the Week



The calm,
Cool face of the river
Asked me for a kiss.

Pulp Poem of the Week



Only dumb guys fight.
If I wasn't dumb
I wouldn't be fightin'.
I could make six dollars a day
On the docks
And I'd save more than I do now.
Only dumb guys fight.
Langston Hughes
"Prize Fighter"
1927
