shotboy.

i was wearing a prom dress...
& i was down there in the dirt,
i was digging a frantic hole
in which to bury the dietary
dictates of indigestable
dogma...

everyone is so hungry &
given false food disguised as leisure time...

someone said to me,
Let the dead eat hostess potato chips.

approved to be sold with deodorant as
amerikkka's most wanted repetition....an image of regenerated disintegration..
aired frequently in order to effect
successful hysterical mass imitation...
for those who get high on the
dust of the spectacular....

...& no one will know what really happened, because the camera angles were all wrong...
but i couldn't leave until i found a suitable
replacement...
finally, i settled upon a barbie doll...
& as i escaped thru an
electrical outlet,
i left barbie sticking out the other end of the socket...
i'm feeling quite dizzy & nauseous but i like it...
because the beating
wings
fill my ears, & i feel full of that sound,

& it takes the edge off that

empty

feeling of invisibility & disintegration...
carving broken glass & making wind chimes.

someone said to me 'you do not exist',
& i said 'this is my body..'

someone said to me 'you are not a legal tenant of this world',...
& i said 'this is my
blood..& this is my blood-stained sheet.'
..someone said to me 'no one
will
respect you if you believe in nothing.'..
*i said '..but i DO

believe...i
carry my past like a bullet....

& i said ..sometimes i wish my words
were sharp enough to cut my own
throat..to take me beyond the idea
of the fear of death...

inside my head...

my head is full of butterflies..
& i can feel their wings beating on the

inside of my eyeballs &
its making everything i think to seem

fuzzy...fluttery...

after i came down i couldn't talk for three weeks..

how many senses did you miss out on while you were alive?
