death becomes them?

what many don’t understand is that

when u pull the plug on a loved one   or 3

u pull the plug on yourself

 

how could it be otherwise?  Your leftfoot

remains at the edge of said precipice for

some 18 months   give or take

 

you are now fearless re: the big bangless bang

you realize  the futility  the utter absurdity

of staving it off     (as if)

 

also  you intimately know  how an entire existence

is snuffed out   the grandeur  the devastatio   the name

in one second   gone   never to be another

Me

 

you flirt with the shrewish reap   who doles out

the elixir of sleep   you fuck with your parachute

eat tenders  kick the halfnaked crossing-guard in her  lardbelly

 

go ahead  arrest me!  kill me!  run me over!

the peace of that crooked smile  beguiles

the frozenvisage   dentures in place  (I can’t remove them..she might bite me..)

 

rigored fingers

bewitch

+beckon

 

our dead  our heroes  who have gone where we

fear to tread   now become extraordinary  +brave

face it   death   (especially murder)    thrills us

 

but here you are  left standing  yet again  dickinhand

at the pearly gates   with a  HUGE  craving  for

 sex+candy

Summer 2023  ..enough already with the death thing..
