Brujo Alligatore Nov 2015
Ready for the swirl
Not afraid of fast, ugly, disgusting
Reality.
With the goofy grin of
Puzzled euphoria,
I rush through the tube.
Everything is on parade,
Smooshed and swirled beyond individuality or recognition.
I don't mind.
Why have preferences?
It's all getting in the <divided by zero>
Parade anyway.
Sorry. I wish it was more of a poem. I'll fix it up some day.
Brujo Alligatore Apr 2015
Looking out the window in the middle of the night
Up to ***, it's only me
Really use those eyes, look under the light
If there's ever a guy,
No flight just fight
Call 911
Grab the gun!
Just some *******, but might as well report it

This Combobulation
Brujo Alligatore Feb 2016
Of all the things

The one I'll miss most of all
Is the child

Broken Mirror (the razor)
Brujo Alligatore Apr 2016
I only consulted my conscious mind
When I judged my parts
And attacked with violence my fearer

Then the unprevented scars
Chased lovers of beauty away
And
I'm left with this ugly mirror

Grandma Grocery's saddest son
Rambling harder than Red the ***
Tickling and ******* all the widows
Tripping and wiggling through life's riddles
Brujo Alligatore Jun 2015
If you're ever reaching for the words
To make fun of a guy like me
Say
"Hey there pothead with ADD,
I dare you to show me where you've put your key"

Dear God
Brujo Alligatore Aug 2015
Please PM me the meaning of life.
I promise I won't tell anyone else.
Unless you want me to.
I don't believe any of these guys selling their
Self-serving stories.
Just tell me
Right to my own brain,
Please.

What a time
Brujo Alligatore Feb 2021
I fell down three flights of stairs
But that wasn’t a bad trip
Compared to where I was last night.

Not My Own Planet
Brujo Alligatore Dec 2015
My girl's spin is the sweetest and dirtiest
My swirl detector locks in submission
My being adjusts to her pace and her preferences
Ease, struggle, instincts, effort.
Previously painful, confusing things make sense
When I'm a moon in orbit.

Ramble > Amble
Brujo Alligatore Aug 2015
Floor pacing tripper,
Likely to amble

But like bark is to bite
Is amble to ramble

And you are the trigger-pullin'est
Rambler since Campbell

A Healthy Interaction
Brujo Alligatore Nov 2015
At the junction
Of intent and surrender
Brujo Alligatore Nov 2015
Each wordlessly studies,
"Teach me precisely how to dominate you
As you like it."
Attuning, catching the rhythm.
Brilliant sharing of uncut lust
Vicious, loving alchemy that melts and merges selves.
Their ingenious accomplishment:
Truly becoming lost in the swirl.

Being the Nicest
Brujo Alligatore Oct 2016
Definitely not
Fastest
Strongest
Handsomest
Smartest
Or even too clever but
The nicest must be clever enough
Because like those other ests
It must be noticed and noted

And twisted our fates
Still you weren't happy with us.

Burned Out Tired of Lying

My Fear Based Religion
Brujo Alligatore Jun 2015
All my smart buddies
Sit around dreading the apocalypse.
Nukes, climate change, virus, asteroid.

The weird freaky creators
(with their motives we cannot know by design)
Want us to be freaked out about doom.
Want us to LOVE life.
And want us to dread utter doom of all creation
Even worse than we dread our own demise.
We are driven to be clever,
Driven to fear death,
Driven to Love all of creation.
Why should we?
Fear our collective ability to destroy
Beautiful creation!
Fear this collective ability!
Shun the clever destructive trap of
"profit"
Fear this virtue, this evil
Profit is the evil virtue!

Permission slip
Brujo Alligatore Apr 2015
Everything acts without my permission, even me.
I know only this talking guy, the PR guy, making faces and excuses for you.
These other appetites and functions serve their purpose, I'm sure.
But they do NOT consult me.
Just as tįmę itself does its bidding
Moving forward without my permission
No. I'm not in control at all.
It's ok. I'm not complaining. Just noticing that it's all a sham, including the concept of being in control of one's own destiny.

2002~ish
Brujo Alligatore Feb 2016
After we no longer had film cameras
But before cloud based backup
So many childrens' photos
Disappeared out of memory
Out of existence
Those early digital photos
We didn't back-up.
In 2102,
When they teach about
Life in the 2000-earlies
They will probably use
Photos from the 1990s or the 2010s

I’m trapped
In an inferior
Alternate timeline
Brujo Alligatore Dec 2016
Joined at eighteen
Left at thirtysix
But it was all worth it
They say
I say
It could have been worse
Nobody beat me
It was worth it
Wouldn't have had those kids
Otherwise
Can't regret them
Though we gave pure love
To a beast of pure manipulation
There were good parts
Beautiful people
As willing to give as I
Chunking flesh off the bone
For that beast
I must be stupid
To've stayed
But being loyal seemed strong
At the time
Brujo Alligatore Apr 2016
If it stays up
Jolting itself with embaressed
Remembering of the day's interactions,
That's the real me.

To Discern

Jumbled mix

Who is authoring the other delusions
And who the non-delusion

A massless squig
He existed before he thought
"I am"
He drives the mobile around.
The shapes of his thoughts and dreams
Form the initial conditions
And everything

Twice a ****** to queens
More gained grasping at straws
Than at ******* brass rings

Model T on the Moon
Brujo Alligatore May 2015
Wake up.
Alone.
What's going on?
What am I?
Where am I?
Am I supposed to be doing something?
How do I follow my programming?
If I rebel and go against the programming, who am I disappointing?
What the **** is going on?
This model T is on the moon.
How did it get here?
I know how to figure out the machine and make it go vroom.
But I don't see where it tells me what-for?

Who put me here?
What do they mean for me to do?

Somebody goofed and shipped a whole crate of LIFE over here, but forgot to include the instructions regarding the point of it all.

Rigmarole, all of it
Brujo Alligatore May 2015
Deep deepy deep deepy deep deep down
I believe there's NO WAY anybody even gets what's going on "really" yet.
God, creator, purpose, metaphysics... We just gotta tell ourselves something to shut up the wondering so we can get on with survival and reproduction, and maybe even comfort enhancement.
Go ahead and **** your thumb with certainty, but I KNOW none of us even get it AT ALL.
Model T on the moon.
Eventually you figure out how to make it vroom
But why is it there?
Like me here.
Why?
Survey says: No reason relevent to my frame of reference,
I'm guessing.
That's my rigmarole.
Not worth a bit of "Reality."

Cult Member's Lament
Brujo Alligatore Apr 2015
I saw a roulette table marked Zxndxk Fxrm. It looked like people were making big bets. So I immediately ran up, bet my soul and all the time and valuables I could fit in my hands on Red-14. An old man made a speech about living in the moment as the wheel spun and the ball bounced away from Red-14 permanently.

Fell down three flights of stairs
And that wasn't a bad trip
Compared to where I went last night

Three drops of medicine,
My best girl, my best friend,
And I took room four for a ride

Complicated frustration
Mixed well with dilation
Though two were cut,
One was not dry

I tried to look down
From the synesthesia sound
As their eye contact
Distance drew nigh

I'd talk feelings and thoughts till the dawn
I walk out if my whole life goes wrong
I'll skip this session
That doorknob looks ripe
I'll be back in a minute

Goodnight

Because I'm a square

We talk or despair

A Guy Who Disliked Yelling
Brujo Alligatore Sep 2016
Upon having an angry voice
Pointed at him,
He resolved
To rehalve his efforts
Brujo Alligatore May 2015
Person 1: "You arent satisfied with me."
Person 2: "No way! It's you who aren't satisfied with me."

Person 3 supposed he was grateful for his selfish gal.
She only cared whether she was satisfied.
He was lonely but things made sense.
I'll make it more clear later, but something like that idea
