Spindle Lamp Tendril

You shut off the faucet
And you hate the dryness
What on this fuck's earth
Am I supposed to do with that?
I used the grill-burns on my forearms
To highlight my alcohol problem
And you wanted the perfect sauce
With which to eat my arms
With which to eat
My fucking arms
You're eating my arms

Pedestrians Reallocated 4.270

They ran our drugs
Some had bugs
Their gaits trod ineptly
Due to drugs and bugs
The sidewalks filled
Some insects killed
Between shoe leather and cement
Pedestrians thrilled
We are the products of reallocation
All we ever demanded was a sidewalk nation
We are the end result of the reallocation
We use drugs mixed with bugs to ensure penetration
We use all of our love
To avoid isolation

Abnormal Geometry 2.6701a

this toast is good
have some of this good toast
you wouldn't know good toast
if it hit you in the face
have some of my good toast
I will train you to recognize
good toast from bad
because I am a toast coach

Platitute(s) 2.213

words with your father
when you knew he was sick
words like "rotisserie"
and "onanism" flew freely
because for once
the playing field was even

Measure of Comfort 2.61

I stopped writing
And then I used MOC 2.61
(hospice workers and good nuns)
Hospice workers and good nuns agree
MOC 2.61 is a shield against woe
We who pull from the benefit know

Data Symposium (Seasonal Affective Disorder Variant 2.045)

we held hands at the Data Symposium
and kissed on the steps of your front steps
you told me how your electrical bills had lowered
since you switched to the blue LED lightbox
that you bought from Lloyd's Pharmacy
I asked why you didn't just take pills
like normal people
and you told me about the dream you had
where Shuji Nakamura borrowed your cutlery

Permission Template

you rescued an idea
from that dick at IKEA
who made you have that dream
about Ann Landers
you had borrowed her apron
with the Raiders logo
so you could buy a scratcher
for the frosting lottery
