Age

A light dusting off the ground pounding head instead flew to bed fully clothed with that aroma of surly smoke and booze clues to a night of lurid wonder plunder the liver and shiver or quiver for the times leaking off your skin like sweat bet you can’t drink this and still stand hand me another and I’ll fumble it down my throat boat full of familiar faces all with rainbow smiles and laughs helps to get the spiders off the arms a quarter of the way there and still I want to turn back crack open the window to let that bitter brisk billow onto the floor and that acrid stench fumes into the mustard lamps like torches manipulating the now into all that was cause she can’t physically punch planets why not crush all that Sun you have left planted cross-legged licking icicles to hallucinate about the better things rings locking around fingers slip off easily but it’s nothing more than a slick mistake taking longer lingering like an angry duck quacking nonsense to make some sense whence I came from the room with the broken light in your mind find me in your dream but for merely a second I only had a glance fancy meeting you here dear hats off to the crazed surgery to remove the remains of those veins still tangled to you in my heart tart pastries are bread crumbs trailing after you like loose toilet paper hugs and kisses and misses looping like Ouroboros eating itself for the jocular eternity that’s fleetingly skipping away ignorantly like a mindless child remember all that could have been or were can never remember which one it is or was or will be anything is nothing but nothing is everything from the very beginning it’s as fruitless as the surmounting end might as well stop and collapse to the floor pour all that fluid from our souls where we land and plan to count backwards till all that forward moment means something more than mere contempt sent a sign ahead let’s go to bed and dread the boredom nudging our lives but find happiness in the bombs exploding every second we exist
