IMMORTALITY
I WANT MY IMMORTALITY NOW MO FOS
WHILE I CAN STILL ENJOY IT
Dentist said: It’s very bad while poking around inside
my head But I already knew that Mouthfuls of blood
since Xmas Yet here in bleak Reaper-friendly January
the crucifixtions of 2017 begin to evaporate As the pull of
Spring seduces with bunnies chicks +chocolate Carlton
card hell around the corner Won’t you please just let me
bleed out in peace?
Easter manufactured from the pagan celebration of Oster
Worship of the egg The Great Round Giant hips+thighs All
that the fame whoring culture of now despises No you are NOT
woke as Ms. Steinem + other hip intellectuals would lead you
to believe
Last night on the Grammy’s scantily clad young women gyrating
on the knees of men Hair flicking Soul eviscerating How do you
expect to get behind #TIMESUP amidst all of this vibrating? I mean
to really make a dent +stop worshipping the objectification of breast
vagina +penis alike
In the Neolithic when the naked ape was naked the body was worshipped
as fertility God/Goddess Mind you we still performed human sacrifice of
young virgins But that is just the duality of the human being From sublime
heights to profane crevices Sacred substances to cesspools of the mind
Powerful men dropping like flies
And the humble dung beetle wagging a finger: I told you Apes water finds its
own level Ditto depravity But today there is hope! You know h o p e That
which springs eternal Lurks in the darkest corners Even among the just trying
to survive the mildly depressed+worried It is that twinge inside when humans
see: a road a mountain an alcoholic at the LCBO counting out pennies for four
tallboys
The twinge of hope as I stand in front of the gallows on Bathurst St. each week
(where my old mother paints the Jazz greats in a dingy room) And shout at the
top of my lungs: OPEN FUCKING SESAME! The creaky doors of fate creak open
Take the step! And all will be provided for safe passage You can relocate to Peru
where reportedly the government is seducing ex-pats with $12 pedicures Or do not
take the step And continue to play checkers with the monster in your basement

I want my immortality now bitches..
