Jas Abramowitz 
Lawrence, KS
Poet, Madman and Politcal Refugee 
 
Jas Abramowitz is a man of many words.  Sometimes too many.  
You can find him spouting off at the mouth with Opus, or his band MaximumSuck.  
Jas has over 12 years experience writing and performing 
having appeared on stage, in video, and random coffee houses across Kansas.
Currently he can be found, sitting in a chair, mouth agape and drooling, in absolute awe 
of the incredible perfomer/poets.   Once they stop using such big words all the time, he'll be fine. 
A dictionary?  P'shaw. Dictionaries are for losers. 
He is truly honored to be a part of Opus
to have the chance to offend, infuriate, entertain, 
and (if he's lucky) touch 
you in bad, bad ways.


Flirty Girls

Goddamn, pretty, boyfriend havin' flirty girls!
They drive me crazy as they coo at you in bars…
You knowing, they knowing there is another
And yet she stares in your eyes and smiles
Making the subtle comment or contact 
That's obvious enough to be smelled by the dog across the street
Even jokingly propositions you!
And you know if you could beat up the boyfriend— 
But you know you can't, so you don't and you go home and think:
Goddamn, pretty, boyfriend havin' flirty girls!
