Headache
A small bottle of Tylenols
Costs a meagre 20$$$$
Now I have a real headache.
Costs a meagre 20$$$$
Now I have a real headache.

Detritus
Police sirens
muffled voices
the detritus of life
hung out to dry
Seminal fluid
splattered on plywood
obscene desires
rarely materialise
Drifting off
out of time
the warning won't be
televised

not surprised
I once found
myself at the
end of the
rainbow...
nothing was
there
myself at the
end of the
rainbow...
nothing was
there

More plastic
The old lady wished to look
And stay young forever
So, plastic surgery
Here and there and everywhere
Now everything is stiff
And fake
Even the forced and rigid smile.
And stay young forever
So, plastic surgery
Here and there and everywhere
Now everything is stiff
And fake
Even the forced and rigid smile.

Foundations Are Crumbling

alright....
to feel like this
who am i

with each
breath...
feel less human
should
it be....
this dark
anybody there?

poverty
The poverty
The stigma of poverty is like coal dust.
Cling to us no soap can clean away
We don’t know if we are welcome.
Look into the eyes, do we see aversion?

walking across campus
1978
walking across
campus
tripping on acid
for the fiftieth
straight
day
heard the bells
of the chapel
ringing
thought it was
God talking to
me
I didn't
listen
walking across
campus
tripping on acid
for the fiftieth
straight

Monotony
This little town closes in
Like a cage door shut behind me.
Like a cage door shut behind me.

drab
Feb. 7th
the sky as grey
as the concrete
I walk upon
the day is a black
and white move
running in reverse
need an expresso
and a Parodi

Changes
In a novel
Reading of deception
In regards to a glorious past
Of fighters struggling for their land
Now filled with weaklings
And shopping malls.
