How Death Became Moonshine
My tribal ways
Defy logic, reason, syntax and the largest grapefruit known to my aunt
How could it be otherwise?
My introspection
Fails me
Again and again, not unlike a piece of stout corrugated lime-juice resin
My first impression
Was of an enormous horse, twice the size of the Eiffel Tower
Another illusion?
My secret crimes
Are secret no more now that I have published them to the hoary press
Cheap, Dirty Dozen
My cat of bronze
Sits frozen in time and space
And purrs
My teeth chchchatter
And my nostrils, ears, eyeballs and a towering pizza studded with amphetamines
Shatter like ice, forever...
My brain spins like a top
Then, turning once too often, sinks through the ice of time
Onto a rat's tail
Mighty taunting whore
Sits astride the world's phallus and laughs uproariously
Just a tease?
