eye of the spider

I want

to develop my

mother’s habits

quirky

what

do you think

you are saying

for profit

detention

centers

time was a customer

I am here

to buy glasses

we have

water glasses

wine glasses

colored glasses

we even have

glasses for parfaits

supervision

that is

what

you have

   maybe I was

and

do not

want

to do that

anymore

I visited a

painting

once

and when i

left

I took some

color

stayed forever

in

my eyes

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

taking this

moment

to wonder

if

I will ever

see you

again

happy

like a bar

like a church

like a celibate

priest

is it sunday

grace being
polite
learns to
walk away
finally

lasting in the happiness

she could dream
arrive and disappear

cloak and dagger
stuff
time bent stupid
true
insufficient

do not ask
do not ever
do
that again

the
giant hand
that saves
babies

the
world’s largest
toilet bowl

filled with music

just
a bunch of
spoiled motherfuckers
and thieves

bitchin’
about welfare

some people get
joyful letters
filled with
quotes and pictures

here I am
eating a cheeseburger

wish you were
here

like a leaf
I left
only to return

in the next
life
I
want to be
a bartender

in
the name of decency
please

wonder
if he knew

figured out that
nothing adds up

just add zero
