One Man to Rule them All

When we shine, we shine together.
Halfway home, then back to never.

Varlust thwarted
At the dismantling of a DJ
One man, an ego banned
Indielectrocockrockjam.

Ego the size of fly testes
Crushed by face
Identity displaced.

Creating comfortability
A love you can trust
WTF, blackdick, WTF.

Alex Chilton, 1950-2010

Are Sweaters Real?

You, in sweater.
Me, clad in dress.

Adorned with hopelessness
Of artifice undressed.

Do I make you realer
And you, me less?

Touch reality
To ensure truth.

One writes words
No, both.
One recrafts words
No, both.

Are words real?
When
Spoken
In
Head?

Mama: in the Gloaming

Where are you, mama?
Anywhere good?
Laughing and drooling and wearing a hood?

Where are you, mama
Anywhere sane?
Smiling or bawling, either do you deign?

Mama, there you are.
In my most erotic nightmare
Wearing the hazy glow of memory
I
wish
you
were
dead
