Though it
made me a poet
This is a superior microwave to the last if everything has to be a competition
I guess it
does!
In the
Kafkaesque vortex
Where one is
trying merely to ask a question
Instead one
is sold something
I’m monastic
or have acute anxiety
Anxiety is
pretty cute
Like a
decapitated bleeding brain
Covered in
snails turned carnivore
By the wrack
& ruin of a child’s innocence
The fist in
the sister’s face
The knife in
the wall
Did I
imagine the latter, dream it or see it?
Who threw
it?
Must have
been the bowie
Still life
goes on
So I went to
school the next morning
& got my mouth taped up
For being a
chatterbox
Such is the
life of a privileged 5 year old
It made me a poet
