What’s John Writing II (Come, All Ye Salty Sailors!)

Dewey want to see the writing
any writing can be the writing
maybe, sometimes the writing sees

whatever writing Dewey doing

Dewey almost
never stop writing

writing the revolution
writing the end times
writing the heart

scriving
scrivening
scratching

scribing
Dewey a scribe
for their tribe?

Dewey not
employed by the Tribe
in any scribing capacity

Dewey don’t submit their scribbles
to the Tribe
for publication

why do Dewey write?
ain’t their writing mostly
an embarrassment for them?

Dewey everyman?
no, have to be
non-gendered

everydude, everyfella?
no, everyone:
that's the gambit

as far as they’re concerned
Dewey are
everyone

suppose Dewey should plan a performance
and invite all their friends
on social media?

if their friends didn’t
come
would Dewey be mad?

Dewey don’t expect
their friends
to come

think of Dewey’s own evenings—
so luxurious not to have to
go somewhere!

but how can Dewey be
everyone
if no one comes?

Dewey themselves

come synecdochally
they come and come and come
