festivals

***** feet

***** of them ache

they're dry

all dried out, moisture to face and digestive tract make little difference

but comfort a little sort of; maybe

subdue to replenishing

skip the pain with a drink fucken, fucken drink fucken

dust lingers in the brain, it swirls

a cloud of ground envelops the shape of u

u become covered

u have a layer,

salty,

and dry

and 'organic'

(surely bio (though im not sure what is or why are))

 

full city boy, suburban boy, not particularly gritty boy

along side hippies

and volunteers all tripppy

and unwashed, and un plastic

yet forcefully hemped

drunk of micro beer

and burnt brown and blotchy red

and wire-y

 

and dry

 

and matted

as if nothing really matters except for principles

misguided and randomly enforced

 

feel like a husk; peanut shell

insides swallowed by the mouth of the party embodied

a monsterous sweaty man tanned and thickly bearded

and beered

fat dreads fall around and surround u; a forest of hair

a circle encroaching of fuzzy pillars in fibres

entrapped inside them; feel their lingering time matted hold

a wealth of effort to become unkempt; they are bars

they are walls

and the FACE!

………………………   ………………………………… oh

looming down, wafts of armpit vapour cloud; a looming puft that surrounds

engorged by the scent as it circles u, the mouth that lowered onto u

chews u and spills bits of u

chomp chomp

protein for vegetarians; u; ur rigour ur vigour ur guts

  

eaten in a flurry of chomps and slurps and it crunches

and it grates

like the rocks on the ***** of ur feet it grates

 

u are digested

and reused

as they would like

but for them; for a collective u dived into

for fun

2 days to peddle ur wares

to progress ( admittedly through some days of regression…)

for all humans, and Humans; for fun

 

on monday we will repent

for the damages waged on the inside of the body

and the outsides too

for some gain

i guess on this which we settle

for always for display for fun
