Locker Room

October 17, 2016

Who haunts the ghost?

Who walks the dog?

Who mocks the turtle?

Who listens to a log?

 

Live by the penis, etc.

Shivering in Utopia.

Slow smoking October sky.

Pave the road with lyres.

 

Orpheus sleeping

with one eye weeping.

Who would trap a fowl?

A special suckerfice.

 

Anyway, I love you.

Grab ’em by the antenna.
