Auction Comics: June 2018

Is that God, I thought while being potty trained in front of an eye on a TV set in the time of the first space age president who said we go to the moon not because it’s easy but because it’s difficult.

I wanted to know more about God when I took a screwdriver to the back of the TV that showed me how to reveal who The Wizard Of Oz really was.

I saw a beautiful city made from glass tubes that glowed with the color of golden amber.

I crawled into a TV set discarded in a backyard and looked out to the burnt out buildings of The South Bronx. A vast wasteland was TV believed the first president of The Federal Communication Committee.

I saw a cowboy from Death Valley Days ride out into The South Bronx as President Ronald Reagan who promised to rebuilt a town that basically was a homeless shelter for the working poor and those that looked for work.

I came out of a dumpster across my second home called Public School 161.

I had the wood to build my time machine for the science fair.

I also built a shoeshine box to set shop between a newsstand and The White House, an Italian American supermarket on Prospect Street.

I made money to buy wires and mini light bulbs to be put together with a soldering pen.

I was 7 years old with dreams of being a scientist.

At the age of 5, I invented a space ship made from a paper cup before creating a sleek ship made from construction paper and copper fasteners.

Years later, I tried to recover memories while working part time on a garbage truck.

I found a Newsweek magazine on the street with my birthday.

On the cover was a picture of a boy in R.E.M mode or dreaming.

It’s all I have in the way of a baby picture of myself.

I put it together with another discarded item on Global Warming never knowing to use it for Homelessness Made Easy For Dummies

Creativity is a great mystery
