Truth In Nonsense
butane eyes belie
the truth in your excrement
smeared on the walls of my mind
slithers on the wind
slimy of hand and heart
chemically addicted gnat
acidic angel with wire hair
blood flows from a drunk carpet
absorbing corruption
cigarette smoking a human
exhaling the ashy soul
the tobacco coughs up a turd
the welfare check talks back
children ringing off the hook
go unnoticed playing off key notes
river of stone
flowing nonsense
from it's garaged nose
housing a white woman
virgin whore
whose skin is snow
black of day
kisses the tarmac
ears to an empty computer
talking walls
don't listen to the ramblings
of a guitar string that has snapped
(For Get Weird Comp.)

wow it's like a new genre of poetry - nonsense poetry that is not nonsensical by any means, yet it appears that way - its definately weird and strange, so much so I can't explain why I like it :-)

I really like you imbue the artifacts of daily life (computer, carpet) with such entertaining weirdness. I hope your walls take the time to listen. Loved this! Good luck with the comp.

Your opening drew me in and.. just 'wow' down your lines! powerful images, m'lady!
The addiction for me, is the word flow & combo used, so effective..
"acidic angel with wire hair
blood flows from a drunk carpet
absorbing corruption"
~very best word-smack I've had all day.. I'm thinkin pasta & beer ;)
"cigarette smoking a human
exhaling the ashy soul "
~truth in your kooky verse, smokers guilt here, totally..lol..enjoyed..
great comp entry.. I am now a fan of your vocab & shall be following you.(no stalk, just follow) ha.
best nites to you LadyC ;)
