what i did on my summer vacation

my family entered the bowels of the earth everyday
there we sat with the evicerate+radiated like Santo Sebastian
via Frida Kahlo run thru +thru +thru

this did not kill them it beatified them but as soft as you make your
eyes you still see the youths wasting on stretchers clutching cellphones
when what they need is Excalibur to fight the fight

the bald children the damp bandages at the throat the inhabitants
of this gated community look at us with hungered eyes all are starving
for burgers +fries +lifeforce a rare delicacy in these parts

but they cannot tell which one of us is the anointed one soon to lay
on the zapping tablet when they think it is me i see pity when they think
it is him i see pity for me ie., the hand i am holding severed
i am thoroughly pitified +that pity sinks into my pores so banish notions
of luck it doesn’t exist yer just grist fer the mill but NOT anymore! when
you stop believing in luck it all becomes a wonderful life
my summer holiday was riddled with awe cancer
it was a fucking bloody revolution revelation
