Jouissance
The tyranny of fast comfort
causes:
A recline in culture
A hard lean
into the life of a roach..
who will eat:
any old eyebrow,
any sad scrap,
any soap displayed…
in a catchy package.
The Venus in Fuchs
awakes to find
a sea of Gregors..
and an army of Father’s with rolled up paper
swatting at the ugly dimples.
Now,
we have no taste for milk.
No use for a woman in a fur scarf.
The temple becomes the couch,
to hid behind and grow paunch.
The denizens left
languish
as snakes who once had limbs
but now must slither through a tincture
of benzoin and fat..
hoping that the fried skin,
will not stick to the bandage.
Their tongues are cut
and cropped into tounge-skinned satchels,
which are used to carry plastics and balms
to be spread over imaginary ailments.
Bought by the Jack-off-in-the-office-box-
-ed, authority, ordered like a 6 piece pox,
stuffed with inflammation and tufts of knuckle puss.
She cums in sizes..
with buns, hot crossed
like it, want it, it’s a must.
The caloric prophet, on his potato totem,
preaches..
There is no pink slime..
ONLY
lean finely textured beef..

SKINNY ROSES
In my youth, walked alone.
The house decomposes and all the skinny roses
grew their thorns without grace.
Another window closes on all that’s supposed
to make me unafraid.
Sent me off in a quiet boat.
Apologies are useless, only leave you muted.
Brought a trial, but not by fire.
If this lasts a lifetime, the only way to fight is to lie
about what you love.
I’ll keep my coat on inside
or make my own fire.
