I Don't Trust My Own 2 Feet Or Know what To Share About Their Steps From Here to There
Goose, moose, loose, noose
spruce, truce, whose line is it?
oh its mine,
ya I'm fine
no I don't dine
or drink wine
or whine except when I stub my toe
or lose my snub nose or miss a bug grow
One in a window, one that I know,
a spider or spider or spider
or a spider, one of those,
one with lots of eyes
and a diet that's gross
I watch them through a haze
of glass uncleaned,
I watch them grip web as wind blows
a breeze that is mean
I watch flies dead
they get spun up and cleaned,
blood is dirty
organs are dirty
skin is dirty
future is dirty
happiness dirty
dreams are dirty
being more than poop is dirty
them flies and their wings,
I bet they can't even dance
I doubt they can sing
I doubt that they do much of anything at all
besides see a bunch
at a time,
both ends of the hall,
larvae that crawl,
trucks and potatoes
and trees that are tall
Stupid fly,
them spiders are where it's at
them and the cats
and making prank calls during tests
“is your fridge running?
wow I'm impressed,
I can barely get mine to walk”
then they hang up
and I hold
a gun to my chest
I'm feeling perplexed, vexed
stressed and in debt
I chase a fly, singing
baby you are mine
let me be as a spider
let me sip the wine,
bring me to your family
you can feed off my spine, never mind
I'll just unwind,
no chasing today, I'll
just taste some hay bales, made out of clay,
horses here, neigh
cowards
just pretend there's a gust
so I must sway in place
for like, 11 hours, I'm a pony
I touch a wall and pretend I have power
to write a song, skip all my showers
grab a knife and filet
my flawless, beautiful leg
to make bacon for cake,
use the bones of my bone
to spell out on top, T as in steak,
then make tea in the lake
go to the beach and just rake
for hours and days
stretch my wrist till it's sprained
I aim guns at tourists
who complain about my shit
in their way, then I play
jump rope and hopscotch
with some kids and complain
and then rage at poorly tied knots
when two short ropes are wrangled together
and I debate whether murder is earned
or deserved over poorly drawn blocks
with their segments severed,
an awful display
What dope made those?
I'm trying to jump, 1 2 3 4 5 and 6
I feel I've been tricked by some chump
I really do and am liable to thump
with the butt of a magnum
with the flagrance of the sun
that has fun burning me up
Is summertime done?
it needs to be up
give me some winter,
a hot coffee in cup,
boiled eggs delivered
by some dastardly truck
who knows where we are
who spies from afar
when
we sleep
he hides in fake cars
he's a creep in the stars,
the man on the phone,
he hands me weird things
when I'm alone
sand filled scones and on the road
he stands brandishing lobes
with giant earrings made of earwigs
as big as globes that you'd buy
from a dollar store or some place
that likes earth or something
THAT WAS QUITE THE DREAM
NOW ON TO real matters
I don't trust the mailman
I don't trust my doctor
I don't trust a dog, I wish ill on sponsors
I don't trust a log
why'd it leave the base
of such
a radiant tree?
I don't trust the fog,
I can't really see
I don't trust a cog
I don't trust the face of
man made machines
I don't trust a pond
and cannot swim with ease
unless I have fins on my feet
and arm inflatables, squeezed
on my biceps and triceps,
I don't trust the sea
I don't trust wands
magic, wizardry,
is not for me
I don't trust your God,
what's he done for me
and why don't I see
of miracles you speak?
I don't trust a job
or supposed
diplomacy
I don't trust a hog,
that's bacon on it's feet
and I don't trust a yawn
when I don't wanna sleep
or feel any need
and
I don’t trust my lawn
where ants creep
and voles quietly peep,
it's a land of sneaks,
tiny feet and big beaks,
nibbling up all of my green
and I don’t trust a sheep wandering
up hills, steep, that's a coat walking
soon auctioned to be reaped
I don't trust a yolk
in a store, what a
joke of a soul, home
closed off in a shell
perhaps to be cracked
or spread thin and then fold
over cheese that reeks
and is borderline mold,
be the egg, either
scrambled or boiled
in a cauldron,
I don't trust a carton,
rows full
of life forces severed,
feathers in coffins
I don't trust a switch
that's on and off too often
I don't trust my stitches
sitting eight inches
atop my hip as
I don't trust my grip
climbing out from some
soft angled, gradual ditch,
smooth it out or just dip
so I can ride flat or get air
on my bike
I don't care, just don't look
so dumb
sitting there,
like deflated despair
like a cradle or swathe
bathed in green hair
I'm impaired, swimming in flask
give me my wishes
and
let them be cast
I don't trust a splash
I don't trust a splish
in every one of my sips
I don't trust fishes
with human looking lips
who swim over for kisses
I don't trust suspicious
hooligans in mittens
exposing rotten
finger
tips laced with blood glistening
I don't trust dismissive,
those who don't listen
I don't trust messes or
flies in your kitchens
I don't trust the world
I don't trust my eyes
or the sky, I don't trust a pigment
on the side of a box
lying about phony nutrition
I don't know superstitions
but I coughed and threw fits
and all of my salt spilled
onto pages of fiction
as soon I crashed laughing through
myself in my mirror
and my wig split and
I don't trust they'll be air
in my pigskin in the spring
when I spring into whipping
sick spins over picnics and
into some twigs mitt
I don't trust others proclaims
of precision,
when some, they get splayed
by sloppy incisions
which leave limbs, minds and spines
with
injuries extensive
which is why
I don't trust your help
cuz I don't trust the system
I don't trust in my health, hearing
my heart whisper, don't worry
we'll get em
I don't trust my wealth,
that's but digital pittance
I don't trust in stealth
by my own admittance
I admit that I tripped
and crashed into fences,
while stealing fences for fences
I don't trust in Hell
and it's variety of sinners
I don't trust in hearsay,
with no show shown,
that is only tell and no winner,
for me and no picture
I find it
like being served
foodless plates
that are claimed to retain
tastes of splashes of wine
and former
formal dinners, where diners reclined
to these now empty pitchers
with residue of lime,
the backwash of some spitter,
your hogwash has grown thin
and is starting to drift
atop the swell of my inquisitive tinder
flames tickle and blister
I don't trust bells
painting pictures of time
with irritating chimes
and finely made, shiny gold shimmer
I don't trust wells
water fountains with grubs
and small worms churning
like on the lawn, only
creepier,
deeper and dimmer
I don't trust shells
or the crabs within em
I don't trust my cells
or padded cells that pin em
or whacky gels
for hair not enough cemented
I don't trust forests felled
or bugs that yell in full sentence
I don't trust a weld
when I lay on metal plates
so high up and so dented
I don't trust a gremlin
dry or wet, full or unfed,
that fur is demented
I don't trust or fuss
with a truss
if I can grab and bend it
and I've no trust in hues
easily blended,
I like buds that bloom,
not taking life for granted,
sticking to their own and I've
no trust in windows tinted
or those who harbor resentment
I don't trust floors patched
or tech implemented
I don't trust in you,
sue me, send it, I'll
write out your impending
and guaranteed doom
if you even look offended
at how I end it, sour
I don't trust splendid
spruce, truce, whose line is it?
oh its mine,
ya I'm fine
no I don't dine
or drink wine

or lose my snub nose or miss a bug grow
