Poems
Jan 2015
Lubricated Man
I must be overheating,
cause my air tubes are filled with steam.
My movement cogs are rattling,
awkwardly, clashing joints screech.
There is combustion in the oiled pits,
which catch fire all to quick,
and boils stomach grease
and releases gassy silage.
The gas seeps out the crevices
and pollutes the wholesome air.
Poison in and out,
hot smog--a warning sign.
I must be overheating,
as a mechanic rushes toward me.
He wets me with his coolant,
and cools me with his sweat.
