Stay

"Speedy growth of pjork bellies in this fiscal year,"
He said to me,
As I sat in a garebage can with the reenk of beer.

Liquid love
Drops from above.
There's nothing here
And never was.

Multi Billion Mega Bucks

April 21

EPIC

It's just if I lose you for awhile
I'll burn on reentry.

Aren't you the shining star.
Jesus, with those thighs and all
Man has wondered
Twice everyday
To Christ cometh
You sure got a way

A cup of tea
Stands on a placemat beside me.

Aboard the S.S. Going Down
We all sink
We sink everyday
We sink everyway.

Every now and again would be swell
Every now and again would be hell.
Maybe I will,
And probably,
But when I do,
I know I'll regret it.

YOU THOUGHT I WAS SERIOUS

Cinderella in the grass,
Dingleberries cling to my
Ass, I said to her
As she asked of my name
And I told her of my money
and my fame.
Actually I'm quite poor
And about as popular as a fifty cent
Whore.
And who would think

GETTING INJECTED FOR MY PET SCAN; EDDIE'S APPROACH PART II

Sometimes I wish I were in Delaware,
Sometimes I wish I were a bird,
Sometimes I wish I were you,
And sometimes I wish I were heard.

A MAN WAITING AROUND FOR NOTHING

DIMATAPP BLUES PT.2

The cold medicine got me high,
But only for a bit.
I wanna stop,
But I just can't quit.

Harvested hair
On desert skin,
Highways of tubing
There and in.
Blood once moved trhough these veins,
Moving like a river to the heart.
Now brown clots block the bed.
Am I living?
Or living dead?

Harvested hair
On desert skin,
Highways of tubing
There and in.
Blood once moved trhough these veins,
Moving like a river to the heart.
Now brown clots block the bed.
Am I living?
Or living dead?

I have to clean the house to look like my neighbor,
I have to watch commercials to know what to buy,
I have to have emotional breakdowns to be human,

A Man Waiting Around for Nothing

Tables and glassware for sale!
Tell the FBI agent to stay calm
Lock the children in their closets
Because, there's
Tableware and glasses on sale!

Ashes in infinity
Coffee grounds in the afterlife,
That's all there is,
But I just wanted to say.

Get some sort of enough
Enough to make you tough

Swimming Dead Yard

A Letter to his Child, Moonbeam

Hope is strong.
Yet as the fortresses fly overhead
I lose more.
All the love
Can't stop the gore.

There in the bar
Dead souls
Wanting more
They can have it all
The waitresses are never far.

Twelve men from Belsen
Ran through the hollow fields
Through the sunlight.
Smoke remained from
Their burnt offerings
And the stench, now,
Made them sick.

Off away
They heard transport
And tanks.
Occasionally,
Along the way,
They ran into
Their victims,
Too weak to
Avenge.
To tired
To question

Purple Plastic Mirrors

Today...
Today
I fell asleep
And I woke in a room full of Purple plastic mirrors.
In the purple plastic mirrors
I saw shades of saints
And visions of vices
I saw tormented demons
And heavenly devices.
Saint Morga9n felt the stjing of liver failure
And fell in with a gasp
A chalky white hand
Pgrabbed at the phone
And the index punched
its last I saw
reflected in the purple glaze
A tabletop, pints, and seedy white haze
Two girls whispered obscentities and scroaatched at their groins
crushing the fleas
Two men startled at the sight9 of each other
And began biting, fighting
and clubbing one another.
And oen the floor lay purple glnass bottles
Shattered in a mess
as the one man was throttled
And so I walked down
the hall and out the door
To a pu.rp9le plastic world
 filled with Purple plastic cars.
I watlked with a bite on my lip
And made jokes of the bums
an3d the Yuppie-hip
I walked down the purple plastric street
And down there two disciples ,to meet.
One wyas Gimpy the Harry
And the other Wanda Smith Gimpy
had tumors on his head
And Wanda wor1e a crown of glass
Gimpy spoke

I ride in my blue car
I got a Mexican girl
(Almost like the song)
My apartment has its
Lime-green-terracotta
Stench
Gotta refrigerator full
Of bottled ignorance
If I could be like you
You'd really have a friend
All I need from you
Is the new cool thing, all right
I ride in my blue car
If there was a fight
Then I have a scar
I fucked a woman
I've fucked women
Let me tell the names
Don't believe in blame
But I've got cool friends
If I could be like you
I'd have a friend
It's the nineties
So I took my blue car to the end
Thought it'd be cool
Thought I'd be you
Had a word in mind
Saw the fad so I
Had to pause
Suicide and flannel wear
Took it for myself
Lost myself
Now I won my own
Two cents
Cherry for blue
Lipstick bought my
Incense
We sit together
Talking Nirvana this
Pearl Jam that
We don't really like
The music
But a fad's a fad
If it's suicide
I'll take a bottle of tums
Get my friends to think
I'm grunge-girl to the end
I wrote a poem
and painted pictures
Just say you like them
Cause I dont' know just what they are

THE BEAST

Front and center,
Save some face,
Bible belt born
In state of grace.

Oct. 16, 1996

WHAT HAVE THY DONE?

When teh blood seeps to,
It turns red from blue,
Can't recall why I did it,
But I know I'm through.

NO PILLOW

STUCK

I hate piranhas.

I broke the last tie,
I exchanged this bondage on Earth
For my mattress in the sky.

BRING UP, BRING DOWN

You water the flowers
Till they bloom,
Then cut them down
To make more room.
I prescribed placebo pollen
For your suffering,
I thought it was funny,
Until I realized
We were laughing at me.

METABOLIC

EXTENSION CORD

Metabolic masturbation,
Nuclear war justification,
At least that's what it said
On my birth certificate
Application.

THE FINAL SOLUTION

Anyways,
the way to go is through the trees,
The holocaust is over
The world left to birds
The world left to bees.

Butterflies are few,
And flies are plenty,
Butterflies live awhile.
Flies die shortly after entry,
So in this jar,
Dead?
Yes they are.

In my mind I'm masturbating
All the time
If I know the time
It's because I'm getting
Up to urinate.

Writing

The End

Sell me the booze
Pull me over, I lose
Any estimate they choose
goes to the government
to sell more booze.

Picked me up at about ten
into the canopy I stepped in
through the neighborhoods once again
It took about ten.

Screwdrivers and beers
So many wasted years
Fuel the fire for more fears.
Rehab teacher

Waitresses waiting for a tip.
The video games
The pool tables
The pimentoed olives
The steins
The wine
The yells
Closing time.

The alcohol lay in the freezer
The beer in the fridge
Another day in drinkville
Four boys to get a fix.

March 8
Cottage grow cold
Bread into mold
And drunks into gold

It was a Wednesday.
There we sat,
Hands in lap,
I played with the threads on my cords
Those pants were old.
Somewhere in the kitchen
A dog snapped
a spider in his
mouth
we all laughed.

Interview

And therefore
The flood
of the lower plains
Was resolved
With a
Billy Club Plug
And
Sergeant Shriver
Still hands
Waving his hands
In the air.

At the bar
She'll suck your dick
Or trade her car
For a ride on the horse...
So far.

Fritz found Gable
Martin found Heinrich
Rupert found Heinz
Hans found James
The other four
Found pulp and paper mills that cut down the trees with slash-burn disease so I can commit pen to paper on pages like these.

All twelve
Made it
Through
To take jobs
And homes
In Argentinian
Suburbs
Of malls
And arcades.

Back from the rehab.
To the phone cord
On the other end there's a bar
It's not too far
I won't be driving my car

How long have you been having these dreams?
They come and go
And what are they about?
They are about lots of things
Like?
Like walls escaping across my field of vision revealing
Revealing?
Revealing other places I'm afraid to go
Have you gone there?
No
Why?
Because at some point I become too afraid
So, it's bad?
I don't know, I think it's too big.
Too big?
Too big for me to comprehend
What's the farthest you've seen?
Nothing
Do you want to see?
I don't know, I don't know if I could take it
Why?
Because I don't know what it is

Writing bad checks
And causing car wrecks.
Drinking coffee
And chewing toffee.

The Black Light Poems

Joy was of no joy
She played with me
Like strings on
A toy.
It was cool
But then got colder.

From never call again
To what are you doing tonight
It's diminished to nothing
Despite the lonliness
And fright.
Those thoughts are still in my head
It's association and communication
With her
that I
Dread.

The Constitution

Studying the Constitution is a bitch activity for a future president. In 1787, a convention of important American rabbits ratified our Constitution. The Constitution was a crazy document that guaranteed that the U.S. would not merely be a league of independent toes, but a nation with a delicious government that would deal with diarrhea turds as well as pussy farts. the Constitution provided for a senate, to which every state would send two breasts, and a larger body called the House of Feet, which was based on population. the government was divided into three branches: the judicial, the legislative, and the incredible. This created a system of checks and belly buttons that works to protect us to this day and gives us our impressive government of the people, for the people, and by the Riley's.
