A song

(sung in melody and hipster rap)


I know
Its been a long time
So darling…
how are you?
I hope you’re really happy
And getting older too
I see you in the pictures
And raise a toast toooo youuu

Here’s to your health
And your wealth
And your narcissistic  sex
Here’s to your ugly tattoo
And your fake I love yous
Here’s to your very bad breath
And your so-sincere regret
And your lies and your spies and your phsycophanatic flies
Here’s to  yoooouuu.

I know it’s been a while,
Dear,
I hope you’re doing fine
I think of you a bit
Dear,
And say a prayer sometimes

Heres to your burgeoning waist
And your infinite bad taste
And your miserly ways
And your gross phlegmatic sprays
Here’s hoping the truck that runs you over is swift
And hits you twice
And hits you thrice
And hits that bitch of a wife…

I only have loving thoughts, dear,
And hope you’re doing fine….
Here’s to you, my lovely,
We must catch up sometime.

still

Be still, my heart,
Be still...
Come down from the windowsill
Of my throat,
Don’t jump to my gut.
Be still,
my heart,
Be still.

you and me

a funny force fit
a size too tight
it works really
but the edge cuts a bit
and its suffocating me

i like how it looks
and maybe
id like it to fit
when im forty

but the truth is
it wont
and although
i dont
say it out loud
id rather go naked
than
force fit
you.

The body


   he was an environmentalist, an amateur magician and broke. he wasn't unfit, but wasn't buff either. Lean meat, but enough of it i'd say. he would walk to work every morning - a real save the world sort. Still, when he passed on, his will was, to put it mildly, a bit of a shocker. The meal was to be prepared by one of his former friends - for his culinary expertise i suppose. The recipe however, like the guest list, was quite specific. his eyes and liver were to be donated, the rest prepared in a sauce that would taste 'close to his heart'. 
     The invitees were twelve in all, although it was an open meal and any who wished could partake of it. Funnily, although one might assume that most would be queasy at the thought of eating a recently deceased dear friend, none went hungry that night. Perhaps the philosophy of not wasting the body as a foodsource was well-preached and his friends were obliged to honor his last wish..  or perhaps they discovered they liked the taste of blood. Still, when christ was resurrected, his eyes and liver did miraculously reappear. Perhaps he wasn't an amateur magician after all.

Give me a box
of paradox
a cockroach of contradiction,
termites of black and white
fucking the vermin of vermillion,
a puppet show of status Quo
with white collared decapitees
and a cup of full cream
cock sucking if you please.

Give me heads nodding agreeably
and a spot of well adjusted,
give me money, security
without the aftertaste of disgusted.
Take a stand, i don't want a stand,
take it! all yours i entrust it
Just give me sweet ambiguity
without
the aftertaste of disgusted.

tall

He was 4 feet seven inches short, which, combined with his rather dry personality, didn't get him any action. So his bed was his to do what he pleased with. He took it to a carpenter friend and asked him to make it shorter. He insisted that the bed be made 4 feet seven inches long exactly. The friend, being a friend, was comfortable enough with him to point out that that would be too short, because, um, where would one keep one's pillow? He argued that he didn't need one, and he was aware that the carpenter just assumed he was being too proud to admit his lack of foresight, but insisted anyway.
When the bed came home three days later, he slept on it with his feet sticking out, and, after a long time, had tall dreams.

:)

ok, so the last post was black. I wasn't in a good place. A long night of awakeness, much battle with pointless demons and dragons, and i was tired. Luckily though, i don't think the spark ever dies, and poetry, well, she's gonna be evoked right now...

sometimes i want to clingwrap a kiss and deepfreeze a moment and stop a stopwatch and touch it one more just once more and know it again
but cling wrap tears when you pull it too tightly
and fairies have wings that take freezers unkindly
and its meant to go as i am too
but the good news is i just found...
