We are inside a plenum of darkness

Opaque matters
Transparent walls
Desperate lovers
Weak and crawls


We are a spinning nebula of luminous materials

A whirling disk
Gas and dusts
Colliding lips
Until it lasts


We are the origin of us

*Planets, stars
And middle sun
Healing scars
And we were one

Money melting in a spoon,
let's shoot it into our veins.
Flashing Kardashian lights,
streaming into our brains.
Donald Trump! He's our man!
Mark Muslims is the plan!

All-you-can-eat-
Pile. It. The. ****. High.
When you walk or
When you talk,
let the words squeak out
like they're between
Your thighs.

Thighs. American thighs,
Dreaming next to our Calvins.
Our slacktivism, our regurgitated ideas
spitballing out of our McDonald's mouths
into our peers' ears, distilled by years
And years of "almost-knowledge"
that we quasi-ascertained,
if we knew what that meant --
but we've been left behind!
No child left the **** behind!
We were left behind and there's no
possible way we slacked off, that we're dumb,
that we aren't the movie stars destined for
Lamborghini cars, five-star bars, designer bodies
for designer you and designer me:
the most special of the unique, the
Pearls that have been made in the
darkest parts of the sea, the darkest parts of
origin. Origin. ******. ****.
American ****: virginal ideals sliding around
the muck of a marketable ****, fuckfest,
******* of the American mind, the
congratulations of the American ego,
the proud mother and father tears associated with
buying and lying, "trying" and frying our food,
our ideas, our friends, our neo-impressionistic
children in Jordans, skinny jeans, on tumblr:
the unknowing cousin of Fox News, surprised
by its own wit and wisdom: they're ******* twins.
Carbon copies, unknowing, unwilling, un-un-un.

The romanticism of mental illness.
The close-up of reality-tv emotion.
The manipulation taught to servers
from managers.
The manipulation taught to customers
from society.

All we care about is ****, image, and ***.
Self-preservation: **** Donald Trump
and *******.

Aching body
I can’t stand
Empty tummy
My dreamland

7:30

Cold water seeps
Through my body
Fish is eighty
I ate three

240

12:30

On the table lays some bait
Taking two shrimps on my plate
That’s one-eighty I can’t hide
So I pushed my rice aside

400

3:30

Forty squats
And leg lifts too
Jumping jacks
I need to do

5:30

I eat early
So they can’t see
Fish is eighty
I ate three

240

8:30

Counting while I’m on my bed
Two Two-forty and four-hundred

10:00*

Resting body
I can’t stand
Empty tummy
My dreamland

cgembry
Waters pour
From clouds on high
Restoring life
To a world so dry

I long to be reborn
Like the grass and grain
So I kick off my shoes
To dance with the rain
grim-raven May 2016
In the middle of the sea
Five petals on my thigh

In the middle of the sea
Four leaflets on its side

In the middle of the sea
Three roses floating by

In the middle of the sea
Two hands waving bye

In the middle of the sea
One girl cries and die
