colony collapse
restless legs
identity theft
tainted eggs
leaded Barbie
cancer genes
home invasion
tainted greens
diseased hearts
deadly sin
broken parts
tumbling in
tasered youth
speech bereft
monks for truth
what love is left?
popping pills
guns in school
glossy pages
skinny cool

bullies at war

sound alarms,
can’t convince
of coming harms

in the sock drawer
the shower spray
the daily news
a child born gay
I grab some toast
I gobble fast
I’m in the car
to work at last
parched from breakfast
swish swig of joe
to scheduled class
quickly I go
back of classroom
blackened faces
rows and rows of
burned-out races
after class,
get more joe
think I see god
in starbucks’ logo
So I pray
unto my coffee.
Will this help,
me in my coffin?
he listens,
i hope for the best,
if i have his ear,
what of the rest?

wear a cape
look as if you can fly
wear gold and white
appear to be the main man
file your horns so they’re sharp
maintain an exotic sexual allure
accept first-borns and blood in your contracts
supernatural predator or REALLY bad sunburn?
write a play mocking god, cast yourself as lead victim
take the realm between realms,
littered with miracles
and poorly thought-out science
that forgets home,
theirs, yours-
heavenly court
with your secret throne.
support politicians who mind
everyone’s business but their own.
get someone to write you a poem.
paint your nails red. Eat the world.
Vote Republican.

wish people dead
close your eyes
have a baby
invade
implants
brow lift
botox
click heels three times
hire assassin squad
eat more chicken
whiskey
whiskey
lots of whiskey
pout
quit
catch a plane
more whiskey
watch Oprah
write a poem
hit delete
shred it
flush it down
