Good morning america
Good morning America.
You already fucked this poem once
Don't do it again.
Good morning America
Your radio waves soothe me
but again I can't beat the bullshit out of bed
and last nights dreams face elimination.
The deejay's throat is silver lined phlegm
the moon is a lozenge stuck in the
sphincter
and he plays white zombie
for me
I phoned it in last night
and it was him
the same voice around the clock
around the dial.
The new 100.3 Xerox
Americas hits of the millennia
over and over again
add nausea.

Between Legs And Logs
leaning forward
into the monitor,
the back legs of my office chair,

by the eternal ages
(indeed that of a three foot plastic key ring tape measure could possibly hold)
with great euphoria these two predestined scholars skid back
to where their timepieces simply combust
rather artlessly
in the future mind you
they wept at the sight of God and two chained six eyed dogs
snap their hypodermic needles in
anticipation of devouring the meat thrown to them by Yahweh
the decider of Fate who in 7 days laid a massive cage
for the unevolutionized monkeys to procreate coagulate and masticate
every unterritorialized shred of chewed up sofa cushion they could get their thumbs on
and in so doing revealed a button that hurtled them into the 21 century as brain children of Satan pass the salt preparation H(ell) is not the cure all
pushing that plastic button gets them candy not confetti
