I realized today that I’ve never done anything without being conscious to some degree of how it would appear to others. It made me feel very claustrophobic and I thought I might have a panic attack.
Street Culture
I look so confident,
when I walk down
the street.
It’s when I walk up it;
that I get tired
and
stop caring.
the plot needs more bourbon
(it needs a whole
bottle -i’d like it
soaked enough
that i can
drown myself
in it)
this is a good one
Insulation
I don’t know if you have
Pink bats
in your country
but for some reason
I want to know.
Worth it
i Part i
You’re only worth what you
write on so write on
money and
write on it
a lot.
i Part ii
This is now a one
thousand dollar bill no
college education but
this is what I need to get it.
ii Part i
L’Oreal tells me I’m worth it but
She still won’t have sex with me.
ii Part ii
Oh well at least I know what her
hair smells like (creepy)
smells like my hair I buy her shampoo.
Carrot
All these years I
was told carrots
are good for
seeing in the dark but
now I realise
all you need to do is
pay your electrical
bill and get a $1.50
lightbulb in the right
place don’t
listen to those people
because you might
embarrass yourself
(like I did) in
front of someone when
you try and put a
carrot in a light socket.
Spin
I spin with
eyes
look everywhere
and back
no
revolution
counting on
one hand
one to
spare
we all
in shallow
and only
the unlucky
grasp
at
splinters.
Hands cut
no
I
but
in
smoke
(no trust)
and
Sensai
look
bright lines
give
one
last look
then
close
the lid
for
good.
I don’t know how much more bourbon I can take. I don’t even work here.
Everest
Climbing to the top of a
mountain is no small feat
unless you have small feet
(midget)…
I’m sorry I didn’t see you there (in the corner)
small footed (midget) I don’t
want you to feel awkward and perhaps
you wanted to do it just to prove that people
with small (midget) feet can do large treats such as
climbing a mountain…
but the fact remains I don’t (can’t) pull mountains
out from under midgets but perhaps a carpet I would try.
Remove yourself from that rug midget unless
you want to help me climb my metaphorical mountain.
What’s that small ears?
You didn’t hear me (whisper)
AND THE LOUDSPEAKER RINGS OUT
Would the owner of a Black SUV licence plate
M1DGET
please pick yourself up off the ground you’re
making a scene.
And now the bouncers step up
(if you can’t stand on your own
two (small) feet
you can leave)
while I stand by the table.
…
The dumplings are quite good.
Stay
I live by certain rules I
never hit on twelve and
you will hear me say
no risk no reward I
know some people think it’s
bad to gamble but if you
knew what I did the
casino is a business and
every money maker knows
the customer is always right
