sheets

on the march

from the cross to the county jail

pay the offering and offer the bail

clanking coins drip dropping through liver

and loin

Mengele and me

hunched over bar and bucket

clanking bottles echo

fuck it - noosed up and caught

quivering black handed

honey! go play!

bad primer or empty clip

a red eyed thief in the midst of a

chelsea vile showdown skit

the angel winks and the yeast crowns

the king of lost and never found

torn fabric rips arcing sound

blistering bones and rabid lacrimation

flood the 12 x 14 bounds

.

we put the fuck in fuckup

it just took one

cu(t)p

for you fuck to start whimpering

but the bartender

was

not

listening

Josef! Josef! you sly dog! You devil!

What’ll it be?!

and the angel whispered

with his eye on me

Ivan, water!
