a young boy stopped me on the street the other day
asking about who ran this country
i sincerely replied
"the bank

 

wouldnt it be better
if everyone walked around naked
so they didnt wear clothes
made in sweatshops
by poor starving children

 

death is not the end
nor is it the beginning

tis just a mere interlude in
the wonderful monstrosity
of life

 

the slug lays on its throne
           (is it alive)
it has overthrown the world

now if you turn on my television
from the tv itself
it thinks the remote is lost
because you didnt use it

 

lust over gorgeous languid summers
cook beauty though elaborate
milk the life I want
swim in floods of light
     like a petal when blowing in the storm
from white, black
stare, drool like our puppy
watch their next picture

 

this is the end
but closer to the beginning
where everything happens
spontaneously
without thought or logic
dreams are reality
and reality is a dream
