O the rain will cum n tell us wen we’re dun, but for now the sun is handing out free gum. let’s go get us sum. creeps r watching us cups-n-balls our genes, from the underbrush they moan in harmony, we’re thr go-between to deth’s cupidity. in my body they will bury u, they’ll cremate me with yr zippo, we’ll go floating into thr root beer, then they’ll piss us into a souvenir. til then we gona give em our kid show, Bundles n the Burrowing Birthstone, smear the nite sky starrier than van gogh, more unshy than can fit thru an eyehole, a wetter mix never squisht up the boreal, a better dish petri than the tropical, makin tryst with the mist of the euphorial goin dbl down the slide into the slush of the cryptical. if they call the cops, we’ll fly to a cooler flock in nuthin but our socks cuz wen yr old yr non-stop hot. youth will never noe the grass over the hill wer we daily go to roll in daffodils with all our special skills for fleshin out big thrills. tho we run on the gland that time forgot we’re still officially uncontrolled. tho we forget our manners a lot, we can laff away the scold. tho we look like last year’s tater tots, we’re so ravishing to behold.

ambles down, a one-woman crowd, to the timberline every mid-day she the hawks call feathers, in her mouth, just a-playin house, an ancient dragonfly sings with his wings the secret to bellwethers. ther she waits, at an easy pace, for the mystified with current compensable endeavors to rub the luv from her jaunts abuv in thr burnin thighs til they feel thr pains repaid in heather. come n melt into my face n i will take u to a place wer the wind is like a child reachin out for u wer the ripple in the grass runs yr troubles thru wer nuthin’s ever changed yet it’s all so new it is here that u wur born in the calm inside the swarm u can feed on the need that u cast away or u can go to her today into my arms run the rattled wrappt in scissors none come to harm for we conflue as do two rivers she’s been round since clouds cd cry yet with every death she dies u can pray in her shade as u pass away or u can go to her today plz come for me plz come for me free shall u roam sumthin tells me yr the one up to her home come n fill me with the sun

evryone luvd the incredible fume ox which wuzn't really an ox at all; it wuz a mucific gallery space werin sticky brown particulate matter was swabbed into the master gland of the by then extinct unpedigreed primordial nuisance to enculturate a highly charming, if overplotted, strain of this talkative rare slash everywhere bucolic death rattle. get in early n we'll sell u this obscure orifice, securely. power to the people from the sperm of the keno eagle. don't talk to history. she failed anarchy. holding yr own hand n at least stylistically believing u were still gripping tight to the part of u that had been downpaid wen u leased yr first grope with the pollenating insect mascot had long since replaced dry humping yr auto-generated best actor award to the popular tune of "O, cum on, my kiddies, n butt them heads til yr eyes shoot movies into the fissipeds n they kawasaki with ya, kiddies, down the littershed." deth row don't know like escargot the pain inside my pianissimo. it was de rigeuer to give blood to the aperture of the all-discompassing miniature whose piratical medium wuz a critical drip extravagance. and in the middle of the road and there wuz only one road n it wuz calld this ain't the middle of the road there wuz a road that everybody rode toward that unreachable road in the middle of the road. wer, running out of friable air, u set off yr final banksy flair, n tho i smoked my face to cut the glare, yr mis-spellt yelp scented yr delf to my elk n so another boorish beginning ended in a boor's unpenning, as yr lost soul led me to a break wence i cd see none of this has to be. s'obambulated by the undescried, too interjambed to ever collide, our bodies won't be identified til mimesis rise demystified by the little collapse that lurks in the smutch that nobody noes cuz it noes too much save those who fly a deposed aliferous rush to the overgrown handiwork at the dawn of touch that tenders us porous, the air our bed, our dreams a dash thru the overhead, n the more we metaplast the ostent unforesaid closer lobes our luv to trilling reeds relinquished. be the vast includer, free of the master user, feel all yr thrills abrood her, she who fulfills who loose her. so shall we lay amidst the leaves that are the tears of chattelled trees til sighs seize us cuz the breeze believes us n rising free to raise the built off our siblings in the silt our every move is an underling in luv. wer'd the baby mooses go? who gave the supermodel who ate the rockstar idaho? wut duz la intimidada noe that we won't noe? will the feminization of the male gaze merely surrealize the bordello? y won't the god-damnd monarchs mate on solidago? is that disjunct btwn tonality and attitude something you'll outgrow? is this song more maudlin than yellow? will the desert be saved from destinesia if i hug a saguaro? how soon til it's bad to swallow? who told u it wuz ok to play ball in that meadow? do we really need two words for ego and echo? wen will shit stop snowing? how i luv to spoon, especially wen we're fallin, into yr coo cocoon til ya let my server crawl in, "mommy, may i plant my spinach in yr oily ribs?" (in Arabic) O drear bored, u deserve this cuz u preserve us as a disservice to the nervous succulent. gonna unsour i'm gonna unsour my heart today gonna pass out gonna pass out sum stars today we got a wile to take too long let's down a litl smile n sing a sloppy song bout the time we'd like to see bein wut will never be n how that sets us fuckin free, cuz i'm sick a itchn to get rich off bitchin. i wanna regift my mother her only child run the water on rage that i gathered in tinajas of reconciled, for wut the world needs now is for us to need the world like the be needs the guiled to re the wild. it is imperative to the natural narrative that we understand how our firebrand converts in envy the joys of generosity to that torching ochlocrat: where's my habit at? don't take my luv.
