The Door
I awoke to the two-hit tan wristwatch on the sheer sliding mantle top
The sound of tiny bells sounding trapped in a bored gods flipflop
Hanseatic divided lines pined internal rhymes in 4 dimensional time
as cool dudes and pork rinds danced in my porn-addled mind
The girl on the floor writhed piquantly and slowly
More horror stories stopped winning decent tonies
and the sad bad old dad still wouldnt blow me
i thought it was time to skip town, yeah, get a little off the ground
gotta eat a little dental floss to stay alive
feelin woke cause im too white to talk jive
and the statues fell around me outside
neoliberal iconoclasts and newt worm jingle bells sinking in the mud
deep down read the children’s book i could not speak to her
my kneecaps ate at my stomach like a long metal pipe
pierced through my stomach and attached to the door
the big oak door on the other side of the room was big
dumbass
big fuckin door in between the wall and the floor
if you wanted to get in or out you had to go through the door
there was a window but the thermostat goblin would get veeery angry if you opened it
shouting slurs, Suit McGoot scooted to his doom
an ass burnt away by linoleum waxwork
and still, I was uneasy
That beautiful body accentuated by them lovely lumps
of skin that were sticky to the touch
started shaking and reminded me of when she used to wear a crutch
and my cool tool wondered if i was a fool, wondered if i was being used as such
Everything has a use words in black written on a white chalkboard
green stains on the wall
left by a saint of some sort
and that corner koi screamed an awful phrygian tune
about inequality and food distribution
and the underground punk scene in Khartoum
Jupiter! Jupiter! Your luck’s just run out!
The news came today! You can scream and you can shout!
You can rip your vocal cords right out!
Penises are out of style so the men are growing longer toes
and nobodys shoes fit no more
but thats just the way it goes
the museums are the place to be
phalluses stacked in warehouse rooms where they get your pills to eat
so there i was, licking the dust off the floor of that goddamned room.
it tasted like mayonnaise and old racist cartoons.
and that plant i was growing was getting taller by the second
and smelled a putrid, oozy stench
(wooly parsimonious van clarke ding bop)
that shag rug that spoke chinese isnt getting any older
YOW!
BRRRRRRRR!
Sex is too good to keep!
The citizens of meat town need their hard earned sleep there
kiddie corner i walked right into the table
my abdomen split in two
and gil scott heron proceeded to eat my pussy
I was tired so i took that hat off
and my hair dripped with purple sweat on account of that new medication
the doctor called me a pioneer but that only made me miss my dvd player
That evil body got up off the ground and pervasively strutted across the gazebo
those hips were straight murder wanted in 43 states of mind
of mine
it took to that garden like the first time a baby rides a bicycle
which i learned to do overnight
no more a thought
i was an automaton
and i couldnt breathe
that shifting floor around me quaked
and i moaned louder than hades ached
for tax reform and getting baked
in an oven like a fruit strudel
the body approaching that exit beamed a smile at me through its crusty anus of a face
mine returned a blank stare that sounded like this
and all of a sudden it was far too late
the seal was broken and a psychotic break unleashed from that hole in between the wall and the floor
the jig was up and ego death could not help
i panicked words to bubble up through decaying crevices in my soul
and pried open my tired mouth like a public mailbox
O, for a lonely night in March
When a patriarch is being assassinated
and a herd of bison roam the city street
a greek chorus recruited by a firm in central asia
O, for a greek chorus recruited by a firm in central asia
O, what a refrain, as your devil speaks thy name
STEP AWAY FROM THAT DOOR
