burned rubber on the pavement
is this the thanks you gave for our engagement
send it all back to the drawing board again
i spent millions on your friends
so lend me the love you borrowed
show me the lines you’ve narrowed down to nothing
i am a something controlled by the one thing
love is my leader and where it goes i’ll follow closely
you are my existence without you i’d be nothing
justice is my father and he is all about our sovereignty
light is our dignity in these final hours of infamy
ignominious liars taste the funeral pyres eventually
all will rot within this tired melting *** of inequality
and when dinner is ready your chambers shall be empty
what fragrant letters you’ve left lingering before me
i am the magazine’s most faithful follower
i worship only copy and devour context as if it were holy
truly life is meaningless unless it is bound or print in glossy
the mind has no limits
it slips beyond all your theories
there is no magical hypothesis
that can contain your thesis or antithesis
all of our stories are limitless prisms
engaged to refract the light
but photons do not dance for just one party
they are infinite slivers of eternal consciousness
biologically inclined to dine upon your reason
all our satiated afterthoughts
are but the decadent crumbs leftover
from another lunchtime philosophy session
time to clean the dishes of your mind
and find the china that sparkles
beyond your wildest imagination
insight and clarity, the luminous perspicacity
to really see anything clearly
i adore you but if you choose ignorance
i will have to head for the hills
like a lonely gambler in a movie
forms are poems left in stone
and our setting souls know no remorse
yet still i moan and count the colors of you laughter
television is the modern day antithesis
to the principles of liquid chromotography
these insipid strategies that strip us of our integrity
as sepia tones are to be reserved solely for those souls
who eat mouthfuls of avocado toast on the daily
while real hippopotamuses only take pictures of memories
they can post in high definition on their instagram feed
The shelf life of infinity is exponentially longer than its expiration date.
She burned a hole in uncertainty.
the world has shifted its weight again
its standing on utterly new legs
with eyes like bridges you turn to fishing
i sweep the carpets and close the windows
another case of barnyard blasphemy
from the wilderness we return
on rafts made from caskets and firewood
to flag the stars and wage war on all the cars
that are left abandoned on our highways
