ADULTS TURN TO TOY PARTIES

I thought I had lost you in the storm.

I was afraid I had lost you

in a completely different part of the lot

on the totally opposite side of the mall.

I bought stuff I didn’t really need, AGAIN. Thinking

of her, and how you forget to remind me of her.

She reminded me of the major year-end sale

of my life, the one I still think about all the time,

the infinite pull of two monsters moon docking

each other in the back booth at Stuckey’s after practice.

It hits me mostly at night when I’m too fucked up

on anxiolytic properties and alcohol machines.

I thought I needed her.

you told me I didn’t need her anymore.

I should just go down to the park and find someone

to give it to me hard because I needed it hard.

Run her through a spin cycle then call the purple heart truck.

Suddenly I remembered every word I’d said to her

was total bullshit.

All those things I’d ever felt about you were straight

total bullshit, then I got the little man cleaned up

for Sunday school.

There were two figures in the rain trying to walk

to the porno store a block and a half or so up,

a tangle of wires, massive black change-your-life

Cockzilla rebuilds downtown Tokyo.  Seattle

can sink or swim, yall don’t really give a fuck.

We were all listening to the radio,

you could see it coming through the walls

like Houdini, his appendix or whatever,

reports of the typhoon or whatever it was then

turning 180-degrees on its wheelbase

for another unforgettable trip to happy city!

That was total bullshit, asshat,

yah, me and my homeys went boogie boarding

off the top of the statue of liberty,

unmotherfuckingbelievable! At least one of us

feel like dying each time they play that mandolin.

Like a buzzsaw in my skull, love makes you do things

I would normally handle easily with a glue gun.

The entire enormous bush got yanked

in my eye before I had time to blink or put up

a new one exactly like the original excepting memory.

The building was lifted slowly off its foundation,

flipping around the other way, it’s another Fisher Price

fresh view of the missile silos reflecting absently.

But who thinks ecru wainscoting and Spanish prayers

for salvation on a floating armature is safer?

a 1979 through 1989 Operation Cyclone

hatchback in excellent gently driven condition

smashed out the supposedly bulletproof plexiglass 

testicles of the pitbull, Amputee Lifeguard.

Police speculate it was gang related. Act Of God.

Stand up comedy renaissance.

“Those trusts have some odd balls under them.”

Witnesses to the execution observed

the execution was flawless but overall it lacked fire.

When the all clear was eaten by an Italianate marble

vestibule where Washington had once been feted

to radical temperature fluctuations and now common

total fucking bullshit.

From the sensitive uppermost tip of the foreskin

rug, hand tufted, no child labor that we’re aware of, to

the unwinnable argument about GOD as all knowing all seeing

condiment no more than twenty seconds long or it hardens

and becomes indelicate, you can’t take it back and then oh! no!

He will find what he hadn’t lost.

Is it ok if I call you mine?

Is it ok to wear white to a black wedding?

I was so afraid.

I was afraid I hadn’t lost you.

You lost a lot of water in those first four days

just incase you hadn't heard,

you lost a prometheus and artemis,

and the artemis was drunk as hell.

There isn't a particular reason why 

I hadn't lost my virginity until four.

Whether the person has passed away,

contact was lost, or the strength 

of the mechanism was both

too much and yet not enough. 

If you hadn't taken your own life

I would have taken you out for pancakes.

When I saw you, I was afraid to meet you...

When I met you, I was afraid to kiss you...

When I kissed you, I was afraid to love you...

Now that I love you, I'm afraid to

think you’re going to break that newborn? 

You’re not alone. Someone you love is addicted

to abusing Journey. 

News flash: Not having a job gives you a lot of time

to help the poor, losing their balance in boats. 

Only love is a moron gluing feathers on a flume.

If I hadn't lost my job in advertising

I never would have lost my Virginity.

I never should have gone anywhere near NPR.

I was so afraid she’d ask me out. 

I was afraid to have a girl, because

I was afraid of worms.

I knew she wanted me badly enough

to destroy an entire city block.  Her dreams

of becoming an inspirational wheelchair

free success story were only realized when she

became a rockstar with edema in the right foot and ankle.

But others, especially in the United States, represent

what American readiness to challenge logical explanations

is all about. Americans call history textbooks stumbling

blocks to unity.

Some think that “The First Thanksgiving” wasn't really

a thanksgiving, resembling a tea dance. As a matter

of fact they call it “The 1621 Harvest Celebration”

because they agree it was more like what you might call

a harvest celebration.

Historians call this comprehensive type of information anti-

systemic data.  Though none will admit to being open

anti-systemites. They just enjoy some ‘you’ time and a hot drink

from a king’s head, thanks to chemistry!

Some of the most prized domestic teas took years

to accomplish it, while others take only minutes to kill.

This party is made up of both varieties.

A female-only gathering of cannibal chieftains and their

sharks where participants learn about and buy sex

toys is a type of party plan similar to Tupperware

massacres in prohibition, or any, era Chicago.

Watch Bambi with a genuine sharkskin Monster Dildo,

our most popular baby name for 2012.

What does my dream mean? 

When cats die do they go into hiding

waiting for the chance to reorganize and recruit?

I waited all night outside in the storm but she never came.

I was afraid of that.

Last update ... 

I was afraid the Lock Nest monster (sometimes called Nesty

or Nest) was not a real hokes. 

but I don’t know what you’ve got to lose your rag about.

A WEDDING HAS OCCURRED

(B-ROLL)

(VO UP)

ANNCR - The screeching subway cars collided

in a tastefully understated ceremony,

the young bride flying as far as a hundred

yards in either direction and embedded

in the tunnel walls.  Some of the tile dating

back to the depression era was handmade

by giant terminal ants.  A single ant can carry

an entire show on its back despite a poorly

developed script and characters.  Yours

is the one gay color.

When they die they continue to sing for as long

as seven hours.  Some things don’t need to be

explained, like the meat you dream is wearing

your meat tuxedo and appearing live on Access

late in firing position, the lazy curl of the Fosterbird’s

lower abdominal piercing. African Variegated

Amethyst Kidney Stone.

A TERM IS A DIVISION

I know I’m not the Emily Dickinson of poetry but

I hate poetry; even the 1% that doesn't suck

as much as the camera inside it.

I can recall only two poems that I've actually ever really liked

(Muskrat Love and Commercial Trash Dumpsters).

1 Star 2 Stars 3 Stars 4 Stars 5 Stars

without the tears this is so where I am.

...just sayin'

I'm a little confused...

you use some phrases that are a little akward...like

At the last minute a word is waiting

for another application to complete.

I deny all technology but my comp

and this poem sucks like monkey butts,

keep working on it and work on your self-esteme too.

So what if it's difficult; writing with your feet is difficult

This doesn't suck exactly but it is confusing and random,

make it sound like something a person might say

not heard that way before and not to be

something that rhymed but didn't suck:)

Have someone else who isn't your best friend 

just say it already, we’re dying here.

And the basic principle is –

the less you understand it; the better it is for all of us.

The better it looks, the better it sells.  

Kind of like modern art:

The better you solder it, the better it works.

Songs are better than poems, but for me

only because of the music part. 

No amount of prep will matter or be

repeated or ever be remembered

because you will see the signs and leave

when someone mentions Black Veil Brides 

in an everyday conversation. 

When you understand how to apply

the principals of hypnosis 

in an everyday conversation,

you will become a master of influence

and one of the most powerful one billion

teenage poets in the world.

Can you answer this question?

Would you use the word caveat

in an everyday conversation?

It is still shocking, though, to hear

a little nine year-old girl say, "Asshole"

or "Goddamnit" or "fuck" or one of the other

four words of worship,

one that always had been a household word

like poet lariat or televised hanging

used in speaking of the ordinary.

i guess it worked.

 face to face is best I think, for anythings,

everyday recurrences of living

in a hole in the ground with

someone else who isn't your best friend, 

not newly chosen or long considered

among the most revered of contemporary writers,

the grand blessing of life, the basis of every virtue.

How long is a baby considered a newborn?

Or a matter for comment afterward?

Read your poetry back to you and ask yourself

Holy shit, I’m an Indie Motherfucker!

Who would ever have thought it was the one

telltale sign of grout erosion due to leakage. See

if it sounds natural, and if it doesn't, how you could

fuck with their heads, messing with the

saying itself from the beginning through

the scene featuring the destruction of the green

planet by powerful subsonic waves.

An interesting way to get people to read it,

I guess I just wanted to see if I could write

in time to the words.

All its uses and circumstances to

donate for a substantial write-off, ask one of the Nuns to

read your poetry back to you and ask yourself

am I the writer I want the world to think I am, or can I

win big at the poker table!  Or take a chance, go all-in, and

utter at last that meaning of its own

“I Can’t Believe it’s NOT EVEN Not Butter!”  GOD!

for which it had long been the only word

you have previously suggested here.

though it seems now that any word would do

shitty poetry isn't defined yet.

Well my peotry got published so mine is good

and i want to see your lips move

with over thirty books of poetry

it's depressing to see so many people

waste so much time on being...INTERESTING.

NOW ENTERING MANUAL BREATHING MODE

The night's work was over.
Most of the workers sensed the real life.
One could not embrace the intention
of the heroes. Next day, no scooter.

So the whole craze about the artist
went over his head, since he fell asleep
half way through the predictable plot.
Then came the planes and swiffers.

Danny DeVito waited in the baggage claim
with a sign that said "DeVito".
He was clinging firmly to his coke zero.
It only showed in a single frame.

"I'll be right back" everyone
in the world said to the space station.
"I mean, who doesn't want to be velvety-
rich!" said the station master's buttered nuts.

That seemed weird, the way she drowned
before that movie began. Anti-anti-climactic.
This is how revolutions are fomented. One
pint of blood on a corn muffin at a time.

Now the internet is turning young girls into living
conditions, staring doe-eyed at the waving crop
of yellow bonanzas, wielding butterfly bows, cupie
lips on porcelain denoted by black hail.

One gave his last muffin to a young girl
and she played flight of the bumblebee
with a butter knife crusted in his precious nuts.
The red balloons aka her muffin will not be televised.

Hey you! you got white stuff in your hair!
Is this product placement? Too much white product?
Was it what you expected? How do you get that white
stuff off your tongue?

"I'll be right back," his wind rattled.
The construction site had a bright banner
that made it an exiting construction site!
That eight foot ball of filling blood was answered

with a meteor, with a fire safety manager,
with a portable in-ear war thermometer,
with grease to prevent the dance floor
from rising into a cavern of its scars.

The pod, when they blew it open, was filled
with the most beautiful sounds. Sounds of
rejected sinks. Laughter of retards writing
all of Mozart then playing with C-4 and a Colt

45 Malt Liquor and a 45-rpm of Mozart "handling"
himself in a tricky situation involving blacks. The blacks
don't care about tongues. They're just tongues.
You trade one in at the clinic for a real-life Barbie

then you bow her until she breaks out
in Keep the Home Fires Burning.
Love at eleven compromised the plaster
looking like striations of Acai juice or invented blood.

The blood squeezed out of a Plymouth.
C-4 requires a binder to work. Something to bind it
to work. The Cars That Ate Paris released in the US
as the cars that eat people. But ya gotta drive.

In space no revolution is possible without corn.
In space no young girl can be sexualized until she's a doll.
In space no amount of blood can fill any ball.
In space no one can hear you bathe your eyes.

No one ever hears Mr. Bubble coming until someone
loses an eye.  The teacher with the ruler with the metal edge
bought us one nut each then left us to get home on our own.
The ending ran backwards before the opening credits.

It blew. Hitchcock walked.

You Are Not a Boy

You are not a boy but pimples don’t let you live free?
in glad tidings we greet thee oh Roosevelt of the coal chute,

Against that wall of on-demand binding

Flattens his tongue on that sphere,

Arnold gave his life to golf, it just won’t end yet.
Give of me my cold, my hungry, my thin pleasure
found in boards unshuffled upon on the quarterdeck,
the Enterprise was destroyed before any of us were born
singing, destroyed by the evil that lurks in the hearts of men…
destroyed like so many eggs and ham (not any known shade
of green) Then the Pleasure of nice weather no longer rhymes.
Just like it never did.
Question: to every black man who dreams of a white woman in his bed,

And one water, no cup.

It was in Chicago.
They made me give it back.

I threw out my back in Chicago.

Not at all.
We just repeat what he said.

There was, seriously, nothing

We spoke via body language.

I’m still quoting lyrics

or win a man’s rejection of a woman
affecting an attitude of musicality
in an upward firing bat tornado.
Neither one makes sufficiently
little sense.

Do you think you’re a dinosaur?
Do you think I am in need of assistance?
Just because I am saying goodbye
with my mouth while my words are
saying play me some loopy fiasco?

Their sense of dusk is uncanny.

Listen to Me

Before becoming something I can put in a can and sell to myself at cost
please read the "You should defile me if" section at the bottom of my auto-
erotic snake aquarium.

And while we’re pleasing me…

Please demoralize the grass under my anus as I’m slipping a finger anywhere
but where you think I’m thinking of slipping a finger. Then take your sin
and silence it, you amplified falsehood. It’s my obesity, they’re my glaciers
and I can see for miles and miles and miles and there’s nothing for miles and miles
and miles. The demoralization has to do with confirming a theory I’ve had since
the day we met, roughly three months from “gentlemen, synchronize your analytically
alien itsy anal probe watchdogs starting the second before…now.”

No, Seriously, Listen to ME

Did you know that the same chemical that’s released AFTER you have sex
is also released AFTER you have sex with a dog? And that the dog understands
this fact? And pretends to enjoy it? Did you know that thousands of dogs
in the same mass grave can read the word “defilement” and each come up
for air at a completely different moment? AND ALL the males will be immaculately
neutered? The females, of course, will be sprayed. And pretend to enjoy it.
But only six, naturally selected, like, by nature, will be wearing my logo thumb-
screws. And that’s how I decided to be a psychic on TV. It beats doing squats.

Here’s a poem I wrote to make men (people, too) want to fuck some of me:

you are indirect, a thinness
at a mid-sized squat station
chosen by your peers to die
unshod. my inclination, though,
is to paraphrase Isis,
“I am my mime, as much as my mime is me.”
consciousness, another word
for sulking, sulking another word
for slut, megawatt. I rule my realm
with a lamented malted hoovered
down too fast for the guilt to attain
maximum entropy. time for a breaky.
kiss kiss. arthur is rimming my doorbell.

(I love how “megawatt” fits right in there
like it was made for the job. now I just
have to remember what the job was.)

Now Hear Me!

OXYCONTIN! That’s that sex dog hormone stuff!
So, I’m all about writing about things.
and noticing how many dogs within a 20 mile radius
are secretly (or not so secretly) thinking about releasing
theirs on me and pointing it out in the media.

Finding a dress that intends to look like a puptent.
Finding a coat that makes me look complex, long, located.
Eating the most ants at the family picnic.
Eating the most garishly decorated spring-roll
at the family picnic then crushing one off the high board
to the song I want to avoid getting married to.
I laicized a priest once before realizing what it meant.
Twice, actually.
Did I say spring-mattress? I meant hold still while I do my finger-roll.
Running my sipper straight through the dreams of your switches.
I did read a poem, once, see?
Now I’m going to have a three-way with some dogs
and a fresh batch of leeks.
Feel sorry for me, don’t feel sorry for them. I love leeks.

Headwear: there’s a question. I just bleed at the hair when it rains.

Then I appreciate windows that have never opened.
So, now, do I do more than just correlate you with my icecap?
Or do you covet my leek?
I’m constantly running just ahead of heavily armed appraisers.
My biggest Asset (get it?) is this Sikorsky six seater Valium.
Second biggest is my dreamless patchwork gayness.
Third is my static Valium with patchwork gays removed
and replaced by dreams that consist entirely of black sleep
margins. I’ve written, among one other thing, a treatise
on cooperating with trees that don’t elect to cooperate with
my Assets. Then I patchwork them.

What Do You Hear? Do You Hear Me?

Hear my hair being red.
Listen to the rustle of my smile.
My unsoundable carbon.
My grin doctor.
That poem I said was the essence
of summertime but I am a platypus
deputy gringo grinding away to bum
your piddling melody plow?
My pre-stung allergy?
The cello I gave to a bum
to horn in on your theory of air
in the skulls of the Yucatan, where
every man who’s a male is also a male
anal despoiler?

My sleeping soundly.
My termination of your dream.
The fumble that I am gathering
on a run toward the mile marker?
With a spitwad beneath my skunk flower?
I bit that bee that he might be a lens
through to the minus column
in your undreamt of insinuations.
I left my original misgivings at an alternative
country gig, hoping to tease their skulls
back to the Yucatan to finish my great
American navel.
So I got thwarted. I’m not finite.
I’m just your current issue of Paranoid Times
shoved under the smoke door.

We All Love the Music of Me!

For Christ’s sake somebody get me a catamite!
Or any silly formulaic defect I can show to the board of directors.
Books are bullshit unless written at night while I’m sucking on…oh, forget it.
I’ll suck on just about anything. Especially a symbol. Most especially a symbolist.
My favorite symbolist is Efrem Zimbalist. Junior.

Watch Me Think!

Why does every man my age seem to want to spackle my stone-
dead tail to his wand like it’s some kind of medal sport?
Why are there so many psychiatrist babies?
And why do they all sit cross-legged
when beating me at “Who Can Lose More Interest in Biography?”
It’s all so slender, isn’t it?
So airily slender?
Cruel, in a way, but still capable
of creating a foremost vodka.
A mission to set fire to another agent’s mission.
Terribly slender and sad.
Like babies.
Like yesterday.
Like a twit.

Then a gust of availability blows all your dayglo babies sky-high.
Does that veal you can drink indispose you? It seems my approaching
seems to cream to the sight of you riding me like a draft, like kippers
in heat, breast-deep and born to swoon. I pretend otherwise but I don’t
know how to lay. At least not how to lay a PEZ dispenser of Charlie Tuna.
This begins to feel like a charity ball for the disabled baby shithead you
as opposed to the jollier you I automated in my blog monkey’s anus.
There’s a breeziness about it all.

In steerage the Jews lost many of their numbers across the wide ocean.
Why should that make me feel jawless? Why thresh about it?
My fleetness of anus seems to have taken the wind out of your sling.
This brings me back to the militarization of babies.
To the tenses I prefer in the rain. The taint of the rain is fruitful.
Let those babies leaf through my portfolio. Let them become Germans
with thumb-screw patents pending. I’ll never be late for that dance.
I’m a specter, an inspector, an open but off limits sphincter, like you
need to visualize a velvet rope or electric fence. In the rain.

You’ve got fins, learn how to stop using them.

Quit Watching Me Long Enough to Listen, This is Good

I wrote a story once about how you petted a polecat.
You were very pretty. I threw you into a pit.
It was amorous. I wanted to see you suffocate
in the Antarctic with your suffocation serum
just out of reach of your cane.
I bought you a Persian lilac.
I threw you to Prussians.
I tore off your Prussian Disguise goggles
and sent you to Atlanta to serve out the rest
of the season in the minors.
I did a miner once. He liked it like they all do.
Like a pity. Like the foodless. Like my figment
turning to ink. The seizure you mistake
for a caesura because you know there is no such thing.
It irks me when you know anything so I send you
to the Angela Davis Advisory Board for epic pity
and to be sloppily sodomized by those who’ve
sloppily sodomized me in my dreams.
It always happens under an overpass next to a salvage yard.
The killers drink tea then decapitate an advertising exec.
This is usually the point at which I begin streaming.
You just sit there.

Now that you’ve heard my story,
now that you’ve herded my tail,
you turn into a random static pattern
that defies itself amorously.
It wears a fat suit of perfect flannel
and slaps me as if I were young.
You, meanwhile just sit there, jubilant,
thriving in flannel, dashing off poems
of anything happening anywhere
there’s a threatening metal Yoda.
The tension is spooky but you
fine-tune me until I misperceive
a gimp as a potential teammate
and stick my stems in a threaded jar
then flick boogers at your happy meal
with the veal shake.
The frostiness is almost funny but
it bothers me and has since I was
sodomized in a frosted vase by
Mayor McCheese, he’s a man too.
All men like you are specifiable
by the silver in your kill scopes.
Now you’ve gotten up under me again.
Now I think I’ll grab a TV dinner made of
actual TV’s and eat them like I used to
when I was never a teenager, examining
each individual sliver of glass to see
if it shows any signs of having sent
a happy birthday satchel bomb
to my anus.
(A girl can dream. But a girl is another story.)

HOW SCIENTISTS WEED OUT WAFFLES

My wife tried to make you a hurricane pancake,
but I think it just looks like meatwad dancing.
Dancing is forbidden. Blueberry eyes that cannot see
are not eyes even symbolically, they’re adorable slut wear.

Bless her heart, those plates are hideous.
Morning laughing fishes hideous, to get the troop
ships to look like a chicken trying to escape.
The road is precisely a step too wide.

This plate is Finnish design: Arabia’s Paralysis
(Paradise in English) Yes, Finns are coma crazy.
Once you reach a certain wife level there, you stop wifeling.
Just take up your maps and go home to the crab boat.

The pig has stopped breathing. But not shaking.
Once broken apart it is embarrassing to reassemble
the pig in view of a public that wants more heat, more noise.
Pigs are doing their duty. Who told them what that looked like?

Forgive that pun, I was overcome by your pancakes, sir.
I think your wife is trying to distract you from the mixed
breed strychnine diet she’s putting you on. Look to it.
There might be a book there.

Ice on my fingers and my toys, and I’m a Taurus! Jesus!
Dancing is stupid. I would say re-wife her but the ship is too
confused, the world has the same plates as my childhood.
My entire relationship with my plinth has been based in lies.

Flexing sun pancake thing showing off its “OH face”.
Do I look professional? (shakes out hair)
That dishware makes me want to slap you
into a sex retreat for spectrum couples.

I want Goliath to slap you now. With a wind
that starts out still and splits into various hurricanes
with drumsticks, taffy and sleeping jerks.
Insert a celebrity name-drop here, I’m bored with it.

Give his boat chocolate chip eyes, give the sand
a carpet of marshmallow anus. Large pile of mustard.
Meatwad wants a stupid turkey to slap back that chorus for him.
Meatloaf for dinner music again. This is every man’s lot.

It’s the path that’s laughing, the voteups get the money, the bitches,
the hour is the same hour as the wisdom of drivin’ in my car.
Something else is pounding. Something else standing.
A black cloud on the horizon. Burnt flannel batter. Grunge-ola.

Here’s a fruit roll-up. I was gonna make you a casserole
for your loss, but uh, but, I didn’t. A no eyed girl is waltzing,
whispering “Porky…” to the potted miracle product.
Genderless creamy pink puke that spreads like ham-like food.

Huddled in long black coat, low drawn hat, disfigurement.
Probably himself. Wanting to eat himself.
After eating those (cellophane) feedercakes.
You should have seen the 9/11 french toast sticks.

A noise like a boot coming out of a bucket of cum.
Suddenly…propeller.
I have to admit, I did have fun
trying to put the chicken back together.

Now go home and wait forever for it.

Postscript:
when a hurricane pancakes over a church
it’s a government sanctioned form of incest.
When a pancake forms a close cropped afro
over a whorehouse fronted by the Pelletier Touch-

Free Carwash in Pelletier, VT, it’s breakfast
for non-poets with ID, eggs your style with choice
of two bacon strips, sausage patties or links and two silver
dollar buttermilk handjobs. (pork based death cycle on request)

The Pelletier Touchfree Carwash is technically
in Barre. Possibly how they get away with
the fuck yourself empty here signage.
Possibly money has changed hands under the booth.

We thought it was a sense of place in time, but weather
is the clue we’ve been missing all along. Preferably weather
outside. Something with a temp and breathable in the minute
before the mushroom cloud pancakes over the Pellitier

psychiatric hospital in Waterbury.
It’s always obvious, in front of your face, always
the nose right over your thing.
And I am a big nose man.
