Demon Affair
married an angel
fell in love with the devil
torn into pieces
Week 43, Day 296 – “Demon Affair”
Week 43, Day 295 – “Amazing”
Amazing
getting lost in the maze of life
mindlessly walking, walking, walking
in a daily devotional to work
nothing left of childhood dreams
just working hard to give our children
the chance to grow up right
and give up on their dreams
i don’t think the mice like their mazes
i think they would rather wander
and live out their amazing simply lives
Week 42, Day 294 – “Virgin”
Virgin
mary, too burdened with daily duties
decided not to keep the baby
joe didn’t really care much
for her having another’s baby anyway
so it was decided and agreed
and in that moment
the world was saved
from religious wars and religious deaths
in that baby’s name, amen
Week 42, Day 293 – “Boy”
Boy
jump in a puddle
and splash the mud
kiss the girl
your best bud
Week 42, Day 292 – “Control My Mind”
Control My Mind
you and your damn mind control devices
trying to control the visions
you can not take away what god has given me
i can see the whole world unconfused
Week 42 – Day 291 – “Mic”
Mic
i am a spy
with a super secret microphone
everyday i listen to your conversations
making plans, gossip and job complaints
at night i can hear your heavy breathing
as you sleep a third of your life away
i think we could be friends
if i didn’t already know everything about you
and hadn’t heard all your boring stories
Week 42, Day 290 – “Drunk, Again”
Drunk, Again
the weak boy’s been out drinking again
pouring back beers to replace lost tears
but the frat boys still tease him
sissy pants and fucking queer
giving up is easier than fighting back
it’s too hard to off one’s self
so maybe a drunken coma will do it
or choking on vomit
inevitably he wakes up in the morning
spinning and pounding
with a stench mouth
and beer sweat
a few aspirins can’t make his life better
Week 42, Day 289 – “Bad”
Bad
woke up late
and my socks weren’t dry
threw ’em on anyway
and out the door quick
got to meet lynda
and get started with the new job
if i fuck this up, it’s gonna to be
bad
Week 42, Day 288 – “Night”
Night
lying naked
in the middle of the night
with the glow from the park lamp
coming through the open window
and back-lighting your sleeping silhouette
the air is humid tonight
and I’m having trouble getting to sleep
but you are gone, maybe dreaming
dreaming of being somewhere else
I’m sorry that I’ve kept you
cut off your life before it could get started
you are here with me
working in the deli at Melba’s
slicing meat
how can you sleep?
Week 41, Day 287 – “Bird”
Bird
ladybird beetle
sings a wing song
kisses and wishes
in the morning sunshine
