self portrait 6/15/10

what a fuckup

skipping stones on a block

of asphalt

diving through

a dirt crack

in perfect form

the perfect ripples

of the heat

and beautiful shimmering

black tar ooze

vanished in the placid pool

dirty concrete tomb

drunken limerick U.S.A.

the gods here resemble confetti

the heroes? alarmingly petty

an abysmal abyss

full of ashes and piss

sucking in souls like spaghetti

at our wedding

when i walk to you

alone

and smile at all of the faces

i have come to know

and dearly love

on your side of the aisle

i want to glance at my side

just before i reach you

i want to glance

at a row of chairs on my side

for the dead

alcohol ink and STAMPS!

hehe

alcohol ink and alcohol ink blotter fuzz!

...and that was the end of my zebra pen ink.
