i love u mama u sweet
been reading biographies lately Rickie Lee+Lucinda
as Lucinda’s mother Lucy is being taken away in an
ambulance for dementia praecox outbreaktus (madness incarnate)
Lucinda peers out the blinds neighbour lady called in
or barged in (noseyfucker) tells her: DON’T LOOK
but if you don’t look you can’t intervene save her plan her escape
now can you stout neighbour? your Jaguar does not make
you beautiful au contraire so i wonder is this how one
becomes a seer? just be careful what you see
you can unthink but you cannot unsee sights burned into
psyche eviscerate +3rd degree Annie Oakley as father called
me would have known what to do
if all else failed she could take her gun +shoot out the lights
so no one else could see the ignominy of such a scene or poke
said neighbour lady in the ribs with butt of glock
you think your shit don’t stink!
you Barney Rubble doppelgänger !
you shtetl rube!
mother now tucked cozy box beside father’s box
ruby slippers glittering resurrected in me
