Once Upon a Time on Myspace: October 21st, 2009

Paralyzed Optimist:
a broken piece of flabbergasted man
entrails sprawled out in a circle
eating sausages and crumbs
from the bread that was made by his mum
and nothing ever made less sense
he is cataclysmic in his archery
an archnemesis of himself
slinging arrows that fly off without care
and dissection that prevails nowhere
this in fact is his swan song
bleeding out in most obvious ways
obviously lead to death
its not absurdity
To see inside
and to feel it on the outside
to notice the pathos of a wounded soul
with wounded body
eating the dead flesh of another creature
created by god but mutilated by man
this is the last resort of the priest to teach
and his tact is lost
on the man savage in nature
still flabbergasted by his distinction of being the first
silent dead
alive in his spit
and castrated through deceit
you neutured his soul
and spewed out his entrails
and arranged them in a pretty pattern
circular heap of wounded disgust
he can't stand up without falling
and he can't fall without first standing
and so he sits eating sausages
kissing frogs
and licking up lollipops that smell like astroid rock
and you can't tell him
or me that this doesn't make sense
when chaos ensues what sense can be had anyhow
go ahead prey on him
he won't defend himself
if he could have ended it long ago he would have
but he's been at war for so long
a war with himself
you can't expect the air to change
a musk hangs over all
and he and them and all of us
inhale it
and wait till the day we'll burst
and pray the vultures will pick us off
while still craving sustanance to go on living it
it being the life we think we had
go ahead.
