it rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again

veiled in toxicity
and the lipstick of a shriveled aging whore
with chanel no.9 blotted behind your ears
cock tucked back
dancing
silvery smith & wesson in hand
in all your demented wonder and glory
have once again done me a service

you make me grateful
for white bread
the certainty of his and hers bath towels
G-rated movies
generic colas
the flat ohio cornscape
encased in crooked rivers
crowned by the wreckage
of the edmund fitzgerald
acoustic versions
4/4 timing
and the primary colors learned in preschool

i could have been your most tragic victim
