the hag of cronesville + other stories
is aging the new death? can u all just give us
a few years to shrivel fer chrissakes? so the box
is not filled with celebrityskin all pink puff +hopeful
have u ever seen 100 yr old skin? thin-skinned doesn’t
begin to cover it sheer veering off of bonesbrittle creases
hiding small dogs +mouldering sins
soon to merge with the BIG HOLY SHIT as in: almost
ghosted by God every 10 yrs a stranger has the reigns
burns down the mission u hardscrabbled to build
the million watt RED hair (u took a 2nd mortgage for) while
half listening to hair zombies +a stylist who in dead monotone
says: so what u doing with the rest of your life day?
u forcefeed her quips half truths u give her the best 30 yrs
of your life now shorn +pallid grey u have nothing to say
your kingdom’s up for sale again
this time filled with: shapewear too tight to eat breathe + die in
plus a few leather jackets from your days impersonating anti-heroes
now antichrist +crepey your 70’s loom like a blowtorch
