I broke up with McDonalds On Valentine's day People said she was no good for me I had to get away So I told her, It's not you, It's just a phase I'm going through But as we all know - Dumping fast food is not a pleasant thing to do. So I broke up with McDonalds, didn't see her for a while Was doing pretty well - there was the occasional drunk-dial When I walked up to the window And I slipped into the queue - But then I came back to my senses And realised the thing to do... Was to keep on walking Keep on walking Right past her Ignore the temptation To suckle On those golden arches Ignore those bed-like burgers And those oh-so-easy fries Divide our shared world up And sever all ties! Yes! I broke up with McDonalds and my life is better for it When my girlfriend serves up rabbit food I simply adore it I was scared of life alone with no kebab to walk me home But...       What I once spent on burgers...                                                      I now spend on...                                                                                  Haribo! Oh Haribo! Haribo!   You are a fruit tree in a sack And although it feels wrong to see you Behind my girlfriend's back She can not be hurt by wrongs she does not know! No - the new love of my life is Haribo, oh Haribo! But then one evening after work My girfriend came home early. Caught me curled up on the couch   Soaking up her girly   DVDs In front of me A bowl of Not nuts, nor seeds... But fizzy, yes fizzy, Cola bottles   That were   FIZZY! How could you do this? My girlfriend screamed at me. Cannot you see the damage that they do-eth to your teeth? (She'd been reading Shakespeare) No, my eyes are on my face, I can't see in my mouth. Right, she said, If you think I'm joking then I'm going to kick you out. So she kicked me out the flat and that was that she said. Not quite... I grabbed my stash of Haribo from underneath the bed. I told her all the things about her that I really hated And the moral is: Relationships with things that you can't eat are over-rated.

This morning a great big pile of ******* occupies the road in front of your building, Powdered wigs and hand grenades, The remains of a slaughter the night before. All the medicine, text books, car keys, credit cards, shoes, head phones, computer chips, DVDs, chairs and trucks. A smoldering heap of help from friends in factories. None of it had been spared during the death of civilization. Still they pile it. Your neighbors and parents and friends. They’ve been convinced that these things are evil. They will force solitude upon all of us. They will make us vulnerable and frail as though naked in the night. They will prove to us that we did not know what it was to be alone. Standing atop the pile their god is yelling: “We must sacrifice for the good of life! We must destroy for the good of creation! We create ignorance for the sake of realization! We incite suffering for the good of happiness!.” Left alone we must grovel at the foot of our fallen god, Mourning a murdered child. Crying out for fairness and LAW. Systems and sciences. All lay at the very center of the mound. The head of a rotten body, Decapitated without mercy by those who had been deceived by it. Death and darkness come next, Creeping as wolves do where we fear them most. I can’t tell you what comes next, But you must not trust those who began the revolution. They have abandoned you to your own devices. Left you naked in the shadow of the mound.

I’ve wasted all my money on **** again. I don’t even like it, the stench, the habit, the headaches, the fake smiles, declarations of “I’m so high”, I’m done. I’m done splattering my guts in the morning displaying my vulnerabilities to the world, the world of 275 girls. I just can’t seem to find the acceptance I want, but don’t deserve. what I need is a pill to forget who I am and what I’ve done, because I haven’t done enough. **** kids my age travel to Tajikistan, hack government websites, cure complex diseases in their sleep. I just lay on my futon, plop dvds into my Mac, and waste my life away. another day wasted, staring into a screen. which reminds me I also waste too much money on dvds, while my Netflix account remains untouched. could I be anymore of an abomination, with my tattooed skin, and pierced face, cutting the crusts off of my bread. as mementos of my past seep into my mind, I wonder when I’ll see the starting line, or if it’s already left me behind.

*wheelchair race*
Lisa Nelle had two names like a pornstar. She'd put her makeup on and stick all this blackness on under her eyes like she was holding night in bags. We watched Hey Arnold! DVDs at five in the morning, and smoked the whole place up. Sometimes her and Alexis would go in the back room. Alexis never liked me. Lisa Nelle had this way of looking at you where she'd take her eyes and she'd work her way down to your stomach. She could find a star in my intestines, a dwarf light could warble in my stomach and she'd see it through my belly button. She'd pull it out wings and all and tell me that Khalil knew the answers. Out of this two-ton purse she carried around, she'd whip out a compilation of Khalil Gibran. One time she told me how her father used to pull her hair and thighs. She didn't say anything about it again. When we tripped shrooms, she took my hands and put them on her neck and asked me to feel for the nebulas underneath her skin. When I read some of the stuff you send me, the emails, texts or poems, I can't help but wonder how many words I now know as a result of you that I wouldn't know if I hadn't been looking around for bud and someone I knew that knew you. I'm sorry Lisa Nelle, that things didn't work out with you and Alexis when they did with you and Sabrosa. Sometimes I hate myself too.

Beautiful Women can be Lesbians Too.
Starlight shines from limousines On the streets of Monte Carlo But I'd prefer a cup of tea In a caff with Gary Barlow. He'd draw inspiration from The drabness of the venue And weave sweet melodies around The items on the menu. Spreading sounds of happiness Around the greasy spoon. He may be a chub-a-lub But he sure can write a tune. I could take him back to mine To feast on milk and cookies. Watching pirate DVDs In my flat above the bookies. I would part the curtains So the jealous neighbourhood Saw me ****** rewarding The blond scribe of 'Back for Good'. He could climb atop me Like he mounted Kilimanjaro Everything changes forever Once you've tasted Gary Barlow. Down to earth despite his millions Cuddlier than Robbie Williams. Looking pensive in a vest, Gary Barlow is the best.

The artist only used black, he wouldn't say why his mum named him after a King in palaces where feral children investigate the mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle from their sofa where they translated “idiot savant” as stupid servant was written on permanent files somewhere hidden alongside DVDs that were posted on line showing monkeys in boxes throwing themselves to death against perspex walls splattering Rorschach patterns of childish nightmares, the boogeyman. A butterfly.

idiot savant read as
I was sitting in the middle of crooked roads and singing to the passersby about us and our love a lie the bridges were slowly thinning in to nothing but old DVDs we used to watch when our minds were marinated with empty vow books and your memory was seeping away with every note dissected in to atom-sized pieces of photo paper that was impossible to mend I saw the sand particles of hourglasses run out and almost forgot you but then whispers of your voice reverberated swinging recorded words like tongue twisters I covered my ears before your wavelengths could clash with mine and we would be whole once again We are out of time.

You say you've got it all figured out, got the science down at age nine-teen. I roll my eyes, because that's just silly. I'm older than you by a year at least, but regardless, I watch you hitch your skirt up and strap your heels on before leaving the house. You think I'm crazy to stay around only to meander about in my fuzzy socks and stained sweatshirt. I'll have you know that I actually quite enjoy my one-women tea parties with Ms. Austin and the Bronte girls on a Friday night. At least I won't get a head ache from strobe-lights and my utter confusion when it comes to pretty-looking cocktails. I realize I probably won't be seeing you until midmorning anyway when you stumble rather impressively into the kitchens still in your club clothes. You'll make a disgusted noise at my pillow fort, my coloring books, my towering stack of certifiable Disney DVDS and I will pretend not to notice that you smell like stale sweat, alcohol, and aftershave. You will feel compelled to tell me all about him, all about them, all about all of last night--down to the last disturbing detail--and I will burry my face in my cereal so you can't see the faces I'm making. Undoubtedly you are bragging (or so you think), but really, I'd rather not have had so-and-so pawing at me all night, because neither you nor I know where he's been, and I personally find no appeal in waking up in someone else's unfamiliar room because my comforter is super soft and fluffy and I feel like a princess when I go to bed all clean and cute in my PJs. This way I can get up whenever I want and take a shower and be loud and not have to put the seat up when I *** or quietly try and find my way out of someone else's home. Also, I'm lazy most of the time so I definitely wouldn't like the walk home so early in the day. I have to say that I much prefer my crayons to your aspirin, my forts to your mysterious bathrooms, my imaginary sword fights to your hike home. Most importantly, I like waking up regretting nothing the previous the night except that I didn't get to watch all of Mulan and what her reflection really shows.

Wake up, stare out your jagged window at the yellow-green, creeping mist that pours through the suburbs. Taste darkness inside a spit shined, stream lined dank tank that your roommates call home. Shower and be appalled at just how unshapely you have gotten, your body a testament to your diet of Wendy’s and alcohol. Go to your dream crush, thankless job and stand at attention as the human flesh wave moves blankly through aisles and registers, even as they pretend that they are not the target market. Watch as they consume ferociously violent DVDs and smart devices at discount prices. Stand startlingly still and pray to God that they are like Tyrannosaurus and can’t see movement. Realize you are a ******* idiot because you get your facts from movies. Feel fear and dread make a shrapnel nest in your stomach when you understand that this might be the best that you can do. Frame count with fellow claustrophobic agoraphobics and call that pointless perfection pursuit escape. Desperately have twisted, quasi-acrobatic *** with every woman that is willing, but not so secretly wish they were that somewhat mousy, yet charming, grad student who makes your coffee every morning. Try to shrink into her pocket, invisible, only an absent touch away. Hope that someday you can intervene in her life positively so she notices you there. Go to sleep and breathe in that yellow-green vapor that reacts with your cells and becomes a clean cancer. Rinse, repeat and pray for that big break.

Money keeps the world going round while it straps us down. money gets us what we want and when but loses the mother we need money makes us buy beer and hold hands but it made Jesus flip **** money is what we go and earn while fathers cry because the money could buy them bread but not their lovers back. money can buy lust and *** and along with that a STD money is earned but only burned on sports and dvds money can be lucky if money is the only way out money creates and destroys, monopolizes and liberates. money says things the same way twice even though money reads in "God We Trust" but it should declare "trust in you".

Money (edit)
We watched three DVDs of Elvis on the Ed Sullivan show, Just to find you waving in the crowd for a quarter of a second It was brief But to see you so young And gentle and light Was worth the hours Of black & white tv And jokes that are no longer funny The first night I met you You asked me if I was a writer And I asked how you knew You said it takes one to know one I read your poetry for three hours In Indian style on your living room floor While you ate crackers from a ziplock bag And talked about the love of your life And the way his chest felt The first time you used it as a pillow You told me not to cry When Elijah dumped me You said pain is everywhere, I'll miss out on life If I let it consume me I turned to leave your room On a random Sunday last December, It was cold and wet and dark, And I was tired, You grabbed my hand And stopped me in my tracks You said "learn to relax" And then you held me still Until you saw the anxiety melt out of my eyes I asked you why you Bother to keep the car Even though you know You'll never drive it You asked me why I bother to love the sick Even though I know They're dying You told me "don't close the blinds, The world is beautiful" Last time I came to say goodnight You kept making plans, Where you'd go after you left here Even though "here" was certainly The last place you'd be I never understood Why you kept pretending; Pretending there was more I get it now, Peggy I know

Diet Coke
I buy a shirt, a blue shirt, a button down. I drink a glass of wine, a red, a Malbec. And I watch. I stand still in the midst of the St. Cloud Market. The crowd—that singular being— jostles and jockeys and talks in broken English. I chew gum, cinnamon gum, Nicorette. I feel my habit inverting, bending, becoming mechanical. And I must flirt and be moral with the shopkeeper who looks a little like me. And I must revert to an irrational, emotional, childlike state as I buy three pirated DVDs. The crowd forms a circle instinctually. Three women dance slowly in the center. Paper falls from the sky, newsprint, a day old. Gunfire, the sound of it, its slowing of time. No one says a thing and no one's feet make a sound and every child is perfectly behaved for one relentless moment.

I Diffuse
Ted packed his trunk with all the junk he said he didn't need cars with three wheels and orange peels and books he didn't read He threw away his moulding clay his bucket and his ***** some holey socks and building blocks and games he never played One spider fake a rubber snake A plane with just one wing Two wind up frogs with broken cogs A yo-yo with no string An old remote a bath time boat a bat without a ball four marbles chipped three comics ripped he threw away them all A piece of chalk a bottle cork some old unwanted cans a dinosaur without its roar and paint stained plastic pans Some old cds and dvds too scratched to ever play a submarine some jumping beans he threw them all away Without a sound the lid closed down and locked the ******* in then daddy said I'll take that Ted and put it in the bin Spring cleaning ends as two good friends sit down to toasted bread More room to play I heard him say as we climbed into bed The clever bear without a care closed his one eye and snored I did the same and dreamed of games that we had yet in-store

Do you remember those old VHS tapes? The predecessor to dvds, which were the predecessor to blu rays, and it goes on and on. Anyways back to the VHS tapes, I don’t know I’ve always loved them. I know it’s weird They were such a hassle You’d have to stick it in the VCR, rewind it, fast forward it, so on and so forth. DVD’s are so much easier Yet I’ve always loved the VHS tapes. Maybe it’s because they remind me of my childhood. Or because they contain the finest films to ever grace the silver screen. Or it might even be because, no matter how long ago I last watched them, they ALWAYS pick up right where I left off. I think that’s beautiful. The Mary Kate and Ashley and Rugrat VHS tapes, sitting in my basement haven’t been placed in that VCR for years, but it’s comforting to know that someday when I’m feeling nostalgic enough to watch one of them, once it enters that VCR, it will be in the EXACT spot I left it 6 years ago when I watched it last. It would be amazing if life were like those VHS tapes. All the people you haven’t seen in years, are just waiting there for you to arrive again, just to pick up right where you left off. No need to rewind or fast forward. It’s not quite that easy though. There are people in this life, that I know are just like those tapes. I may not have seen them for months, but once I do it’s a straight shot back to where we were. Then there are people like DVDs who don’t wait, they don’t stay just where you want them to, they keep moving and moving, until one day you’re not sure where they’ve gone. So you have no other choice then to restart, and find someone new. I know that there are people in this life, just like the people in the films on those VHS tapes. There are people in this life that see the loveliness of it all They understand the beautiful gift they’ve been given each day They know that people are sacred, living, breathing, feeling, beings. And then there are people like me, who look at life with confusion, and concern, and wonder everyday, what the hell is going on. Who know that life isn’t like that VHS tape, but wish more than anything that it was

Today I thought about you As I did yesterday and the day before that How your skin is like velvet Hair like burnt caramel Boy with a kiss like a hand grenade Boy with a touch like a paper cut Boy with a voice like a church choir Boy I fell in love with in 2 weeks At the age of 14 it was easy to love you I loved every piece of you Treated you as if you were the last molecule of oxygen inside of a gas chamber My love for you was so sweet some would call it cliche Cupid didn't have an arrow large enough to fit this love You were the first boy to make my palms wet just by walking into the room Until I took it too far Finding myself on a bedroom floor He loves me... He loves me not I let you have the remote control to my smile I realized I was never letting myself cry as much as I needed to You were the boy who I would spend all day getting ready for Loving you was the last thing I thought I was good at Until I started replaying these memories like scatched up DVDs Broken, glitching flashbacks Your name engraved in my heart and mind Your voice being the anthem of my soul Your smile being my favorite picture You being my favorite tragedy Today I thought of you As I will tomorrow and the day after that

Hello, Friend
Minds are like DVDs, Menus .on replay. They’re supposed to show the happy parts, But mine just ruin the day. Mine’s replay scenes of dread, Of the ones I loathe and hate. It replays scenes of pain, The pain I helped create. Watch me today As my mind is torturing me, With scenes of lust and lacking faith Making me wish I could run away I wish I could turn of the TV, Replace the DVD So I can be rid of this torment, And these blackening scenes
