STRETCHED
SAW YOU STRETCHED OUT
in this room marty atkins bravely battled
the behemoth cancerinterruptus people
came and went but he stayed couldn’t walk
or talk or pray so i did for you and now regularly
howl my grief at the moon some say: just don’t
focus on these memories yet certain ones remain
etched into the grey matter brain now reeling with
footage of those days but in the moments before fully
awake we laugh and plan my trip to buttfuck your little
one horse town in Mexico where you found peace and
bought a donkey i’ll come in february on an ice floe +
follow the path of the monarchs over lake ontario
so wait for me and make me the salmon risotto bro

..energy can neither be created nor destroyed ..
it can only change forms..
some people say he’s with you just in a different form
but i don’t care much for this pleasantry i don’t want a
monarch for a brother i want a football player
