orphan poem


No interest indeed
to see what
you seek.
to be 
the end of all ends.

the self divides 
bending around
sticks drenched in the T
we all sit around
drink our fucking tea.
No mind of the street
         a place to sleep!
Hello! Are you listening to me??
(Check yer privilege, white girl)
Sit on your race
means nada 
what counts:  the energy
love you give and take.

Capitalist family circus

Capitalist family circus

the width of capital
stuffstuffmustgetstuff
fill the gaps
between the walls
separate the muskly deathly stench
of rich people who have everything but themfucking selves.

poor little rich girl
cries even when it's windy.
never known the things she saw
were real and future pending.
she tends to think
the world is such
that all are sentient beings.
the guilt the shame seeing
such things
murderous
heltersktelterous beings.

Daddy yelled get the belt
only a few times.
usually it was get the switch.

threats were made
privacies raided
no bones to call my own

bouncing thoughts my only friend
dissheveled into twelve

not I, said, me, the bratty young thing,
Not I, said, you, the ratpack.

Manipulative cat scratching friends
in my headbrainskin
why can't we all be fuckingfriends?!

so we pingpong back and forth
twelve monkeys scattering limbs

never thought to end such silly thrills
boredom is the enemy of wealth.

un cuerpo

dead guy
Brains in the skin but out of the skull.

A few blocks prior, some eggs fall and blast open on the sidewalk.  I used to play such pranks.  Fucking brains.   Out of the shell.
Shock stunned guts.


The sound is just my breath.  Holy shit, I'm so glad to hear it. 
I used to count my breaths when I was afraid I'd go to sleep and not wake up.  Counting down to ___ (xyz).  Whatever. 
This particular man lay on his back, a pillow under his head, propping it up almost.  But no pillow.  Brains out of the shell.  a Brainpillow. 
Looks like a tumor, almost.  Pink, kinda swelling, as if in heat.  So much heat happening in the Brainpillow.

All those thoughts, all those ideas.  Splat, brainpillow, heat, Nada.
Not nada, then people flip the body over, dissect what happened, stir the dead like mixing a fucking fruit salad. 
Respect the body. 
It takes a beating from physical elements, internal stories, and subsequent actions. 

Often thoughts are the bullet in the gun.  Then more supporting thoughts set it up to fire.
Just thoughts, but taken to be a valid source of information (according to our own fucking heads, of course). 
Get out of it.  Think about the pillow behind your skull. 
No discrimination of thoughts, just detachment.  Getting outside of the brain, but keeping it in the skull.
