I rent a lot of sentences & buy a few
date-stamped to fade, like that book
we both agreed was true. The disco glitters
bombed on MDA not E, & you think
it really is still 1973? Puhleeze!
Close your eyes & see bad taste neon
calligraphy scribbled across the sky
brilliant kids take drugs & retire
or fake a giggling century via tickled
wit & Theory (thesis one: GET THE MONEY!
thesis two:...er...that's it) so innocent
so up to date, so wrong! Pencil in a blue
horizon, stolen from some fascist song, &
Yes, the world's Fay Wray & you're King Kong
