i only eat monsanto, smoke eight packs a day, speed through school zones drunk, and am a master of barely restrained circle pit line dancing
heel to your throat, do-si-do this mother fucker, i will allemande left hook you in the kisser
i left many a partner swinging from the old cherry tree, spinning from the heaviest branch, waiting for the dip, six feet deep, full eye contact and soft kisses on the neck
disappointment like expensive cologne, dabbed behind the ears, smells like onions and placenta, stir fried with water chestnuts and innocent tears, roasted toasted and served on a bed of whole grain lies
i am that shiver up your spine in the middle of the night, the dark thoughts that come from out of nowhere, the road rage barely concealed, middle fingers out the window, innocuous and all encompassing
only working on the Sabbath, a modern day messiah with the fashion sense of the pope’s hat maker, all subtle insecurities and penis waving bro magnon cave culture youth
tripping the tryptophan lines straight off a turkey waddle, flush with engorged lymph nodes and a misunderstanding of simple behavioral interactions
the myopic sense of random pulses and sputtering infractions, grime coated and fresh from the river bank, breathing life back into all who wash up on the shore, cannonballing for another go
the wavy lines when you close your eyes, the black stain on the wedding dress, the sudden storm during the picnic, the loss of trust when caught in yet another lie
the broken glass in the cotton candy, rat poison in your coffee, the bowl of antifreeze left out for the neighbor dog, mongrel, shitting every where, the blood in your vomit
an ulcer, an abrasion a tear in the ligament that controls that deadened right foot, big toe broken and left to heal crooked, jauntily angled to the left, crip style and painful to the touch
the broken wire in your phone charger, just enough contact to trickle charge but never enough to make it home, lost in a sea of wifi, not a signal received, bouncing off a satellite to no one
a vegan carnivore, hardcore unplugged, an empty concert hall, the broken baffle, the insignificant struggle between light and contrite, failing to contribute, redistribute and disrepute
your dream made real and microwaved, refrozen and sent to a halfway house for broken dolls, the last home for the discarded playthings and sketches of an abused orphan
ill equipped for this meandering life of lazy currents and leaking boats, a pale pail against the turning tide and jettisoned unmentioned into the captain’s chair as the reef tears the ship
a final bow from the bow, starboard stars listlessly reciting odes to the dreaming insomniac, insignias and infection, intermittent and in a constant state of indigestion
like a gentle hatefuck, loving and violently agitating, a systemic oppression, gerrymandering and molesting the constitution until it stands for nothing
a bill of fights, flights and repeated plights, and a dollop of ketchup on your well done stake right into the heart of democracy, segregated and masturbated until you see stars and are covered in stripes
we, the feeble have gathered to form a more imperfect reunion, with self hate, repugnancy and loosey goosey with truth, oh man
Yikes!

Yeah, that’s what I said somewhere around onions and placentas. But don’t worry, I thought it was good.
