"purchaser" poems

I gave myself to Him—
And took Himself, for Pay,
The solemn contract of a Life
Was ratified, this way—
The Wealth might disappoint—
Myself a poorer prove
Than this great Purchaser suspect,
The Daily Own—of Love
Depreciate the Vision—
But till the Merchant buy—
Still Fable—in the Isles of Spice—
The subtle Cargoes—lie—
At least—’tis Mutual—Risk—
Some—found it—Mutual Gain—
Sweet Debt of Life—Each Night to owe—
Insolvent—every Noon—

His Mind like Fabrics of the East
Displayed to the despair
Of everyone but here and there
An humble Purchaser—
For though his price was not of Gold—
More arduous there is—
That one should comprehend the worth
Was all the price there was—

The Non-Subliminal Criminal
High Priest of Hypocrisy
The Diplomat of Draft Dodgery
The Great Example of Paying Test-Takers
The Loudmouth of Wealthy Fakery
The Main Proof of Miseducation
The Nanocrat of Non-Payment
Potentate of ***********
Sultan of **** Patronage
The Grand Poobah of Poopoo
The Big Wheel of Blather
The Salesman of Bull-puckey
High Lama of Skullduggery
The Master Purveyor of Inaccuracies
The Pride of Misrepresentation
The Scion of Misdirection and Nepotism.
The Black Knight of Spite.
The Grand Lizard of Hate and Bigotry
The Fomenter of Torment.
The Master of Catastrophe
The Master of the Quick Disaster
The Worshipper of War by Proxy
The Lover of Lies and Liars
The Promiser of Pusillanimity
The Handmaiden of Bribery
The Worshipper of Massive Greed
The Purchaser of Fake News
The Dandy With Unseen Clothes.
The Undead Ghost of the Capitol
The Horrible Haunt of the Presidency
The Embodiment of Embarrassment.
The Shamelessness of Gross Shuckery.

Nights are merchant of emotions
And im strange purchaser
Most of the time we trade
Generally i buy dreams
Sometimes thoughts ,ideas
Payday comes at the end of splendid event
I give some sleeps
Stars shine to window
When others lying
Now im not afraid of the night's kink
Because inspiration stronger than insomnia
I know it...

But Which Jaw Drops – the Upper? Or the Lower?
An advert assures us its product is jaw-dropping
If true, this loss of body parts would be painful
And which part of the purchaser’s jaw drops?
The upper jaw? The lower jaw? The set?
Given our recent experience with Nile.com
We can’t be sure of both jaws for one price
The advertisement might be for a set of jaws
But the small print says you have to pay extra
For a complete jaw-jaw
As a dime-store guru from the 60s might ask
What is the sound of one jaw dropping?
Dropping
Dropping
Dropping
(Clunk!)

Lights in vain experience understanding stockings
leading Christian to say they'll just move to the corner
Paradise of the Chinese computer witch; meaning to
Marcus slept and heard the ghost of six men w / her;
He did not seem to mind the shadows thanks to the light
of the second beat of the knowledge of those sweating;
He put on the first Gaul & brought it to the knowledge
of the image of the one they call it, on a very thin stand;
his trial on the eve of the prostitutes on the street;
who will again go to the Gypsy's title; Trusting caught
In a teenager's life; , Hot, starting to look
into the ***** & the plurality of manures; Layers of anger
& Torches paraded through the Community
is what is done in *****
it would be blessed by their course, making them
to pass where men lay dying of a superior race;
the other w/ only the letter & the lady as the bandage
was bound to the fate of the shore, where the mean
of truth comes from the middle of the part of the ..., Hey!
Hail, Queen of my skin, to depart, he began
to clear the rolling hills; The purchaser of dreaming
Asian medicine come for the long open bar
at midnight; & What is the point of your breathing
