This is the Damn Poem

This is the poem procured from the excrement of Oprah Winfrey’s book of the month This is the poem found coursing through the irritable bowels of a Shetland pony This is the poem hijacked from sweat drenched bar stools & strangled rectal meat This is the poem gleaned from the pituitary gland of a morbidly …

A Wifely Duty to Shave Ass

(For Bryan Borland) We spoke, Comparing notes of audio and hooch; He told me he was listening gangsta And downing a 40 oz., I told him I was listening to one of Hank Bukowski’s live records And craving a bottle of cheap wine to go with it. But I couldn’t get it; The liquor stores …

Pass the Season

These moments are just little snapshots, frozen celluloid dimensions where I keep these secrets. It’s like a flip book. No, a journal, black words written on fallen dry leaves, hard bone, white snowflakes, dandelions, seashells pasted together by the hands of the children we will never have. Yesterday I realized that everyone must be careful. …

She’s got her arm Around contestant number three; He’ll probably end up disappearing Like the other two. One of her offspring walks in; A young petite Bible-thumper Looking more flamboyant Than Lady Gaga on LSD.

Cat People #6

In a lonely place you’ll order the usual: black coffee and crumb cake.    I’m still fond over macaroni and cheese. It was the best thing    my mother ever made besides shy cowboys. Don’t scare.

Sir Guillotine Gives You a Painless Death

When they tipped the basket of heads, collected at the base of the guillotine and they tumbled forth like the awkward unsteady steps of a toddler, the eyes moved, teeth bit, and chewed at the weave of the basket. One mouth, they say, bit down on another’s ear and wouldn’t let go. Two men, their …

Car Skeleton

Behind a stout apartment building Lies an automobile graveyard. Go there. You’ll see a rusty car skeleton; The edges are saffron and sharp, And there’s motor oil on everything. Since your about eight years old, You probably shouldn’t touch it. But do it anyway. As your taking the burned car battery out, Notice the hill …
