Enormous Mirror

my exposed skull. a dream of gore while the boors are snoring. i smell like blood. you sang an ancient song, i’m still embarassed when i come. cease to exist. blind hands move and pull apart their clothing. their cure can’t stick. i get my head kicked in and yet my body will writhe again. the sky took shape: an enormous mirror. and that’s okay with me. i watched a virgin birth and then went home to wait my turn.

swallow me out of this world. i am a worm and no man. you can touch the wound in my side. remember black for three days. i will arise in a haze. it will still taste like night. i gather men to see the score. faces of death and frowns galore. i sleep next to the mortal coil. no new worlds are possible. i can’t die in a hospital. a glass cave will host my rotting skull. red grape wine you’re so fine. orange jubilee you’ve got me. red banana and buck bunny. this earth is not shatter proof. an unreal youth. walk from the dump to tabooli and back. i stain a cloth in my visage. i kiss a hand with no corsage. the earth beneath dreams i could leave. drinking up the outer darkness. there will be weeping and the gnashing of teeth. chug this bile. smash the bottle on the floor. what once cried isn’t human anymore. i hate my body. vomit blood between sobs. after tonight: everything’s gone.

Figuring Out The Shower

might have left some teeth embedded in your breast. you might have swam here in my dream, but now you turned into guts. your skin hissed loud when it was touched. you sat and summoned a flood. nude, you’re the one i trust -- from now until my side wound heals. oh oh oh you swallowed the song whole.

Low Morale

i have lost the will to live. in my nightmares, i am celibate. if i pound this nail into my wrist, you’ll always know i was perfect. i’ve got low morale. the troops shove their rifles into their mouths. unholy hands held a rosary. i pass the humans and their sharp teeth. the seizures grip me every minute, traumatic tears make the the floor gleam. i’ve got low morale. sacred death quakes this haunted ground.

Finally Happy

they weep and gnash their teeth. there’s a portal out of this realm but you’ll have to destroy me. wrap me warm in cloth and beat me up. my floor’s made of wood and it splinters my foot like a path into my bad moods. i need to think, and i could, then a blow, then i couldn’t. i die in the world my dad created. there is a free bottle of pop when you’re forsaken. can’t watch you split the moon. i won’t be around to make you frown and not show a single tooth. there’s no answers in the punk rock tune. i can’t lie on the floor for a night without war, i will color all my dreams with gore. i need to believe, and i could, then you leave, and i couldn’t. the city and the girls all leave their tshirts. with tincture on their breath and sad commercials. there is a redeemed world that’s rid clean of me. she wipes a tear and says, “i’m finally happy.”
