SPEAK!

SPEAK!

A Poem by Working Class Scarecrow

the sound of breath

                   
     FILLING THE LUNGS


and then escaping again.

              back into the space where breath first came from .

and i can't argue.

                                   but the fire was out when we left...

right?


and water has too many "h"'s to breath in regardless of the "O"'s.


and the sun's coming up ..........

        AGAIN!

and i'm alone in a crowded room.

but they're asleep....

                                all except me and the cats.

             6?


6?


big deal... LOOK !

THE SUN!

THE F*****G SUN!!!!


how many times?


how many more times?


how many lives?


               the sun.


the sun-fire-water-air-earth!

the spirit-soul-love-truth-universe....................

the overthetop-exponential-omniscient-fuckitall-I'm-alone-so-I'm-not-sleeping-bigdeal.



thanks.


where am I?

i'm in the milkyway...

i'm in the Sol star system...

i'm on the "Earth"...

i'm on the earth...

i'm in the "united states"...

i'm covered in sand...

i'm in Oregon...

i'm in the "City of Roses"

im in a suburb of that city....

i'm in an apartment that is being "leased" by a friend...

i'm in a "living" room....

i'm in a chair...

in a body...
in a stateofmindinfrontofscreen!

WHO DID THIS?

all of us

electric

artistic

sarcastic

sadistic
 
expressive

excrement

excited to be invited

enticed by the bright lights

here we are... at the end of night...

surprised?
