Have you ever
Gone down a Moog
Emo spiral? This is my
A E S T H E T I C -
ブローバイガスの波
People today are atmospheric
A slow rhythm
Without any real highs
Or real lows – MP3 like.
Anti-Depressant.
the window view is bitten
Everything seems edgy
And distorted with a 70’s
Filter.
Peering light through downtown
Glass corridors, in an annunciation
A vowel-less shout
Seemingly hopeless – like life in war.
Tripping on my words
Unable to emote
T H E S E words
Quick enough.
I see the messed
Up drag queen
Hobbling this way when she
Had too much pre-game
And after-hours – in between her
Charade. I think she’s missing a shoe.
On a day, walking dogs downtown
This was common place,
Like life repeating because it
Was.
