The Perfectionist is ListeningA Poem by walter alter
the
rich are committing suicide
and taking us along with them the prosthetic limbed b******s Fort Darwin tottering on fewer stilts once the Masters of the Universe presently picking through garbage looking for an Icarus to pilot some way back among the clouds their telepathic goon squads armed with the hard on of God squat in the darkness of doorways lightning strikes all around them even their telephone poles were clairvoyant several thousand watts went up my leg shorting out the only attention span I own left me perforated but far from lacy wearing all my masks all the time fragments of self are selves in a bulemic deconstruction where form and content mud wrestle incessantly for attention on the crazy train to 3 color 3 finger hell apparently the ancient gods still rule in their madhouse heaven ambivalent petulant flatulent gods brandishing sword point conversions wielding gun point perversions the protagonists the antagonists fornicators masturbators liquidators pariahs and unlicensed poets preaching hellstone and brimfire now their carcasses are steppingstones it's psywar out there kids better find where they hid your dossier mesmerized of the world unite you have nothing to lose but your failed methods of addressing reality said his slowly twisting tongue struggling for ratings like any media the soul cannot erase it can only go sightless a phantom trapped in melancholy when we were built to dance with the twinkling summer stars he finally learned to undestroy memory being an ascended master of non sequitur carried aloft by the wings of Mother Goose his metabolic hurricane of why an inferno of intrigue and superstition our embryo-headed UFO ruling class have me inside their fence of skulls an investment in diagram futures the idiots © 2023 walter alter |
