i was in there
for some crime
you cannot even imagine, but
what they could actually hang on me
was less than nothing.
they knew it was more
but i wasn’t holding, and
i wouldn’t give them
the sweat off my sack, so
it was decided;
detention,

my term was to be served out
in those shallow, horrid walls.
14 days
Janitorial duty
after school
until the task was completed.

she was an old horse
the school janitor. i had half-believed
that she was the one
who’d turned me in.

we had a common room, back then
sort of a student lounge
with stereo-cassette player
and a locking door.
every night after
half-a-dozen waste baskets
i’d steal the coffee machine
out of the teacher’s lounge
make a pot
and sip
and listen to the tunes
i brought in
until my cut-off time;
7;30 p.m.

about the 5th night in
she used the key
opened the door
and caught me
in full-recline.

i expected the knife.

she reached over, turned
the volume down

told me to keep it quiet.

she dropped the can
of condensed milk
on the lino counter
and closed the door
behind her.

that detention was very effective.
i learned two very valuable lessons.

my enemy
was not on staff, and
my most negative behavior
would always meet
with positive
reward.

just run thru
another nitemare season
another street light disaster
and i found my way
between the world’s oldest whore
and the one that got away
and the clap, and the shiv
and the needle and the damage
and the land mines
the vanity, the pig, the gun
the fucking money grubbers, the temple
of the silicone cunt
and the rotten prick of death, and i walked
out the other side knowing
those death holes, the talentless whelps
covet that which i throw away….

so, how’s your winter been

…miss me?…

but i can

i’ve fucking paid for it and

it doesn’t always do this;
this far south the wind
will kill you.

blow out the pilot

kill the bird

and the buzz

in the middle of

the fucking sky…

where’s my drink…

it can take your heat and
it can remove your means.
it can send the seat of your heart
over the soft borders
to the South, and damnably
to the West.
those fucking mountains pose
an irresponsible appeal.
it isn’t tears;
those are droplets
that the ice has let out

like a little cry

to soak the glass as
the truth invades.

very cold shouldering all that booze

one finger, two
thumb.
it’ll just be one
more drink, and

that stewardess

with the golden ass

can’t screw

any better than this ink.

the meat will right itself

so push the fluid past the lips

into the page

and this fucking thing will land.
let the wing drop
serve the sorrow.
you’ll never bring her home

from that young cock

with that

long, sad

sober fucking face…..

when she straightened her hair
the pearls off the bar lights
made her look like a God-thing.
that halo was as empty
as my pint glass
’cause i knew
she hadn’t a lick
of pigment
in her eyebrows
without the fashion
of the pencil.
i am a known Dualist.
i kneel
at the altar
of the pulled cork
and the perfect fruit, with only the
slightest touch
of feathery, lemon-yellow down.
i puked my reverent betrayal over the cat-box
as she worked out the score
of what my worship
was going to cost her.
never finger a liquid
you do not intend
to fully
ingest.

i wish i had a river
i could skate my way outta this redneck drudgery
no more diesel afterbirth
or homophobic slurs, or songs
by Sarah McLaughlin on every other radio station, but i’m trapped
my mutual deception and bodies of water that won’t freeze
and wageless slavery and emotion dependence
my generations week sins of soft socialism slowly eroded
down to nothing
but consumer fat at an ugly trough
pretending we are so clever and much
more humane
than our southern neighbours( this is the lie)
trapped, in my own uselessness
as H1N1 moves mercury thru the system and hides
the horror of the common market, as
the snow erases civility
and the season eats up the credit
we continue to eat, fuck, shit and pretend
that the whole farce isn’t almost up.
big screened, fake titted, four wheel driven
trapped and totally fucked
as the last vestige of liberty
is swallowed with the egg nog.
the war isn’t over
and it never will be.
hoho
ho.

Blogged by J. as Uncategorized — J. Fri 9 Dec 2005 12:51 am

nick the thumb
thru the nail
jab the dogs
into the knuckle
pierce the skin
see the meat
the pink
crush the skull
under the weigh
of myoptic nightmares
coat the mind with
fields of dead-white
powders
dull the cock on
razor sharp hips
dull the pain, downing
quadruple brandied candied cocktails
righteous up on the stink of
good smoke shit
hits from the top
of the Pops, from
the bottom
battling the band
the bottle, the bobble
husband to the wife
finally a father to the sons
the memory of one
being forgettable, and one
missing Mother.
took four shots
and fell down dead
now the moon shines over
the grave of John
and the Walrus.
25 years gone, and still so close
it doesn’t matter
how they try
and, the fuckers
they keep trying
to cut you up.
still, you remain
the tacked-up, coked-up
primal screaming
’cause the dream is over
man-boy
celluloid
plastic fantastic
only.

that small set of rooms was
a hot coffin of sex
powder and cheap champagne.
if the light would have stopped intruding
thru the thick blankets we’d
thrown over the curtains
i could have dismissed the threat
of outside forever.
my fucking eyes hurt
and the snapping of the dry tobacco as
i sucked upon that stick
made me want to stuff
my fingers into my ears.
someone left the t.v. on
for three days running
and as i pulled my naked bulk out of the bath
the image on the screen was of
a bald Asian youth amidst a crowd
at a concert giving
what appeared to me
to be the Seig Heil.
i was so caught up that i failed to notice
her lips around me.
the days of abuse staggered the arousal
my cock pulled a half-effort only managing
to lengthen its nearness to the carpet.
she laughed at my refusal and cut
a long white line of shit
from the brow to the tip
and honked it up with vigor.
i got as hard as a coffin nail
and it sickened me.
i face fucked her until i exploded
and fell against the dresser.
there was someone else i needed to be
and i didn’t care.
this hell was as close
as i had got
to getting
what i thought
i deserved.

in the middle of that great gallery where
i was diminished amongst
all the images, tiles, mirrors, sculptors that i
had longed for i
walked, sick
with grapefruit-sized welts
upon my face and arms
two days away from
blood poisoning.
it took too much cash
and enormous fucking balls to do Paris alone to just
lay, prostrate
on the boat.
full of good, cheap wine
heavy black espresso
and anti-histamines
i made it
3 hours
before the nausea
got the best of me.
it was for the best.
being alone
full of tears
and snotty under the nose is
no way
to look upon
the face of God.

or maybe
there is
no other way.

’cause i’m here, and you’re….

there and you were never mine any more than you were any oneelse’s you are one of that rare breed that belongs solely and wholly to themselves even when someone else is desperately and deeply inside you inside you in all the ways you hope a thing wil get inside you deeply with resplendent vigor anticipation and inspired
movement
you put your hands upon me above those gorgeous ancient laquered slats that were once a stable floor like a maddened maddening physician, yes it’s true i needed to be handled held healed for my wounds had grown so deep and

as you parted your bare thighs under and along my shoulders bracing my swollen head up of that floor working, teasing, kneading the ache out of my Atlas my Axis my soul i fell prostrate into your strong hands that held my whole life and teased to tear my whole life apart
your fingers were thorns in tangles in my hair as you stretched me out pulling me tight upon your rigid frame i could smell the musk of you body the scent of you i would forever know even in the dark
i closed my eyes against the coming of lust the coming of release the burgeoning hard-on propped deep into the leg of my pants i tried and failed to ignore the depth of you breathing as the heat from your middle became moist under my head and i fought the real need

to flip, on that hard floor

and bury myself in you
with all the vigor
your efforts
had made a demand.

you shouldn’t drive after
several beers in rapid order.
it is against the law, dangerous, reckless
careless
and so am i, so
bombing down 11th ave at rush hours full-swell
i trust the periphery
to guide me where
the setting sun
and alcoholism
have made me blind.
i’m cutting corners
taking chances, sliding
in the smallest fractions of openings that
are not visible until
the act is committed.
so many have died
trying to surf the high i am on
so many more as
collateral damage
to the drunken exploits
of the selfish fool.
i’ll die too, soon
and so will you, but
will you
ever be able to say
that you
ever
lived?

i put a pair of lips
in my back pocket as i try
to keep my pecker clean.
it ain’t no easy thing, this
walking away from the wild side
just on the other side of the street
with no come down
and nothing left in the skyrocket
to remedy my sickness rhythm.
can’t go back
to parting cunts
dropping drawers to plunge
humping on the hate couch
of full fridges
and empty bottles. no.
got clean gotta
stay clean
no more drilling flesh
like oil wells
or sadness veins.
gotta stay clean.
but, i will keep my eye out
for the magic song
set to pebble
in the concrete seam
of the street.
the sidewalk
the diesel engine
and the swollen hooker;
all are anxious
for the return
of the rose up
down the droppers neck
over the pulled cork, and on
into the next
moist mistake.

sick for so long the winter of that place had made me a eunich, the constant rain the drudgery could take any mans balls but the raven gods of sick desire brought a dark-haired thing to pull my cock along my cock that had so long sat like a tired lonely soldier sitting in wait for the next set of anxious orders she
was looking for love
in all the wrong places( obviously) and i always occupy all the wrong place ready
with beer and sword to sing all the right things
into the gapping awaiting miracles, hungry for all the wrong things the heat
of the bar may have made a difference
as did her enormous mouth, tits
and ass and i was blinded, as i’ve always been by
the next incredible thing
to come across my lap,
i shunned friend and foes, alike
then sucked at her foreign lips
outside my strangled apartment
until i thought
my pant leg would explode
with obvious erection.
as i slipped the key into the waiting lock she
asked the simplest
most absurd question;
“do you
have a girlfriend?”
and, with the easy lie tied
to the tip of my penis
eager to get her inside
inside her
my stupid fucking fucking mouth
found a moments truth
and there
outside my poverty door
the night ended.

all that mouth, holy tongue
vanilla ass
peach cunt
and amazing tit
sagged away from my stoop
with the weight of my
ugly truth.

an hour latter
i mopped in my poverty bed
as the waiting phone, rang
in the other room.

full of fidelity

and sick

of the whole
fucking farce.

down so down low long gone wasted away in the heat then the miracle occurs. another someones someone let the cherry become a friend, lets the sheets roll back against the entrance we were all born in. fingers point and probe into another mistake we can;t just walk away from( stiff cock as glue against the logical escape) then the tongue becomes involved in another come-stuck nite, then the whole place reeks of lust and we’re on the back streets until the end, and the end is never easy when sampling the unknown, the others goods, the goods so sweat and ripe and wasted by foolish attendants( why would anyone, any fool let such a pink beast as this sit, sat alone in this heat) hot, wanton, vagrant amore, heavy with drink, drunk from the bottle , the lip the hip, the loose the tight the hunger the night will end before release and really, release is the last thing on our minds because along with the coming of the sun and some strange, immortal moral compass, release must mean the end, back to drudgery, the dirge of commitment sex, the old side-shuffle hump done under the cover of bored darkness, just when the frictioned engagement against the unlikely sight of something so like our own desire has finally and wholley set us free, release will bring only orgasm, loneliness and the return to those beings that leaped us upon this unholy crumplled matress in the first place…

this last sip of the newest bottle is truely
magic. i know nothing
nothing of the waves that pass
the tides are
as far from me
as the moon

this type of poesy is
vomit.

i often puke against
the last page of the night, it’s the easiest whore, the last one left against the lonely wood perch of
the disgusting barstool
we
share the desperate love
of the last sinking note of the ale, the lager, the
pilsner
we write the same hope of darkness reprieve
we sink the same tumbler

i do not pray to rise above.

she is the we
of ultimate
consumption

as the gold foil
of my last bottle
falls prey to
my hunger

she will make the same plan;

latch on to
another consumer

anxious to grant
libation
to the hunger
of desperate thirst
that knows no
relent…

or sanity
you’re in the thing
pretty deep.

morality

i used to fuck this
woman.
or, rather
she use to allow me
an audience against
the miracle
of her flesh.
so, anyways
i used to fuck
this girl and
when ever she’d begin to cum
she begin to cry.
wail, actually
and it always made me feel
like a borrowed load of soil, or
a guest
at someone else’s
beloved funeral.
there was an immense pleasure
and something akin
to love
with lust as hangover, but
i was always there
alone
between those twin pillars of insecurity
deep in the soft middle, unsure
if the tears
were emotion, choked
thru the misery of life
the ringing of the great bell
or just proof
of the nails
we drive
into those
we wish, up
upon the cross.

it had all gone to shit.
i was lost
fucking an alcoholic, fucking myself
into another misery, sucking
at the bottle like
a very thirsty migrant
lost.

i didn’t know
not anymore, how
to trim my finger
nails, toes, but
i knew how
to cut off all my hair.

so, so freshly shorn
i asked if
she’d like
to come out
back to the land
of heavy snow
and help my sorry ass
back to health.

see, the spiders of Paris
had made me sick
sicker
than
i’d ever been
and i needed
a gentle lovers touch( not some
new
-age magical fuck
machine
doing the boogie-
woogie
against my ancient shaft, something
real)
to heal the wounds of the distance
of her betrayal
and, mine
before her.

she came.
i bought her a vest.
she was warm.
inside
and out.

i asked her to come here
but, it was easier
to go
there

( if i’d only known
how much work
it would be)

flowing more freely than wine
we loved
again
like the lovers we
once were.

now

i sit her alone
in this executive apartment
dead
from the head, up
on a mix
of good beer
great wine
and the real knowledge
that love sits
just 10 paces farther
than i am willing to step
in my time
of need.

city lungs, eyes, balls. the heat makes us great, up off the concrete we swear we do not love. but, there is none other. we only deposit affection into memory holes, forget ourselves when ever possible and drink like the supply will betray us when we need it most. such nonsense. bullshit. horses shit wherever they please and Lou sings me a flat melody, which reminds me that i don’t exist in all this alone. a lady called Sam. what good is a paper doll? what good am i? what good is ol’ uncle Lou, except to remind me that talent and talented are unrelated. we too need something to eat. but what of food? like K.I. used to say( of which i’ve stolen one hundred, hundred times) ” who gives a fuck about the bread?” it’s just about the beer, the lager, the ale, the pilsner and the wheat. i swallow mouthfuls of some familiar love affair as i swallow my own likes, lies and lines and she
and i
dance
we dance between
the clicks of the beer caps
the tops that pop
all so lovely
into the sweltering apartment
hers and mine,and
their
and yours
if you have
any
fucking sense
at all.

back
