eating
your god for a zombie skull helmet
(
post riot beat downs near overturned cars )
have
you tasted
the
sweet meat
of
atheists
I
over hear this
milling
about
along
the edges
of
a back urban mauling
perhaps,
they are
like
the hope and
contraceptive
machines
placed
near the book repositories
they
steal everything thought
not
to be nailed down
filling
every story told
when
fear needs to be spread
rifled,
ripe and juicy
barrel
fired, huddled handed
breathed
foul stench-ed
forever-ed
in containment
pocketed
sunrises selling
thin
assurances
finger
pointed ends of days
signatures,
airborne
Petri-dish
servants
we
know how
to
be told
to
go over here
or
over there
if
you would please
when
stumbling upon the thugs,
muggers
and tick-tock-fisted
rocks
held ready to strike
keep
your biological
clocks
moving
to
midnight folks
chime
and rattle
splinter
beaten stick hymnals
play
dead as you exit life
the
strong armed parts
of
our survival mechanisms
are
often disguised
as
an intelligence way
to
say to all of us passing by
that
gold sometimes
is
a standard of filthy behavior
a
model modern world
a
strip science searching resources
in
horde robot acquiescence
humanity
is of no concern
we
are told shuffling mold to mold
splatter
patterns and pools of blood
merely
mean these persons
have
abandoned ideals
for
a few coins and were late payments
away
from big screen idolatry anyways
do
any of you know their names
these
lifeless forms, bleeding out
for
the empirical norms
we
have rummaged their belongings
all
of you next in this line
of
don’t know when
must
tell their next of kin
they
orphaned logic
for
narrow minded compassion
for
beliefs in prime number algorithms
and
magic beans
personally,
I keep quiet
move
slowly away
thinking
how much
I
would love to have
a
pea-shooter with sharp
hat
pins and poisons
right
now
who
am I to argue
having
mistaken
skewering
hunger
for
divinity once…
I
just as soon die
on
my own terms
thank
you
I
love playing the fool
for
belly laughs
and
a stolen moment
or
two I can wrap
eternal
sleep around
