"fuckless" poems
I give zero ***** anymore.
I have no more ***** to give.
I'm totally absolutely incontrovertibly
fresh out of *****
My supply of *****
is completely out -- see??
[cupboard door swings open
Only to reveal
a fuckless cupboard]
Even the **** Store is out of *****
I called them just now,
The guy on the phone said he was
Fresh out --
He told me:
*The production and manufacturing
Of ***** has been outsourced
To Shenzhen China,
And the workers are striking
Because they are getting paid
Fifteen cents an hour to produce
6 ***** a second --
Which is inhumane and just wrong.*
I asked him why they didn't pay better --
He said, **** if I know! Like I said,
I'm fresh out of ***** to give
So who gives a ****

Plastic picnic
plastic spoons
plastic love
plastic moons
plastic vows
plastic years
plastic ******
plastic tears
plastic promise
plastic flowers
plastic fuckless
plastic hours
plastic hospice
plastic dying
plastic caring
plastic crying
plastic boxes
plastic keepsakes
plastic palaces
plastic mistakes
plastic bride
plastic honeymoon
plastic false alarm
plastic lover soon.

Dusk is brief in valleys.
but daytime slowly washed, skin, scraped carefully
to eat, covered in
scents delivered by transparent bag
mingling with garden trees and the cattle flies from fields nearby.
Rare, imported light-bulb light
passes through hair,
hands sit dwarfed
and distort in wine glasses,
the split *** mumbles rises on the hob
for Callisto outside, dancing prosaically about a very thin pole.
Conversations become excuses to stare at lips,
and songs suggested without conviction
play unfinished.
The music is softer now, the group diminished.
Getting heavier things.
Extremities in particular, and a few more sophisticated objects.
Corkscrews like ingots and eyelashes masscarad in lead.
There are the last lights and the thin summer sheets
that get in the way; stuck to sweaty –‘tertwined and clumsy--
Ash and tannin obscure the smell of gums
(and sometimes even the folded sent of neck and jaw).
More sweat is generated
Sleep does not come
or so it feels
when
morning is slightly too soon
bright and curtainless
and the beauty is sifted fruity and fuckless soft but moaning.
