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?
