dented

;aldln98y2://

hair trigger on the myriad of machineries
of tiniest beads conspiring to start building
a world and all of its wonders

as we find ourselves conveniently
in the shadow of a great peak
looking forward and back

rinse and repeat
repent and retreat
alit aghast aghost

tall samosas sipped and spit on sidewalks
walked on poured by those
balked and talked down to
on top flews open and flies remain closed
the spirit slips away
while for the rest
rent is due soon

But I paid that shit already

Don't you know...that I paid that shit already. i was hangin' out at my ma's making the doowop mix around the record table before the floorboards creaked and the postal delivery human crossed the sidewalk to the crosswalk up the patio. Swung the doors shut before my eyes blinked and the drips dropping down the kitchen sink before Drain was the habit that my fits of finicky rage with expectation
more postage stamps marked by the glimmering hope of MLK or maybe Malcolm's angry fist before they put a Woodstock on my Snoopy or they made my Garfield remind my adhesives that I don't dig cats. Can't stand the hairballs scratchin at me with their sneaky midnite malice

seem to find the habit dropping food at proper times
Go get yer' pay before the busstop turns to the basement and all the low-floor dwelling Tonies and Barbaras turn their TV dials to the howlin' dogs of midnite. Better get yours before I turn to the next 24 hours
