The man with the burning mustache Is busy faxing my fingernails. Through Monday's telescope There is no sign of Tuesday's breakfast. The kitset monk Exacerbates the anger of the penguin. I am a vulnerable vertical On an immensity of envelopes. The armchair assassin Knows my weakness And plots. The tourists in my nose descend, Assailant voices Reminding me of my choice: I have mainlined mortality. Nothing is certain Therefore all things are possible. In a wobbly universe The tilting horizons of mayonnaise Promise no insurance. A comet shoves through, Hot, purple, flaring, Dispersing the forgetfulness of ravens. The aftermath of friction Revealing the locusts in my mind. It is ten o'clock. The chocolate is condensing. Flaring sugars. Crystalized fish. My eyebrows have invaded my brain. I look through the window. The octopus is rising. The stone has split to fracture up tomatoes. Beyond the event horizon The yellow rain falls, Illuminating Vibrating plastics, Soaking The cells of a dead dog's ears. My elbows slowly get warmer And the knitting needle purrs. |
Author's note: this poem records some of my experiences in a previous existence when I was a member of a packet of crayons which got high on naphtha and then underwent an organically transformational experience which involved encountering an automated cheese grater and then being fed to the maw of a large electric eel.
