peoples perilous pitfalls
teach temper tantrums

these dim Eyes for example

Am him ridging
riding the edge

building a bombshelter
whilst living in a shed

the address is unknown
to those i chose to say it is

hiding alone
no sign of any other kids



Rupturing

I am

Faintly

I grin

Amazingly

Appreciative

of this life
and the opportunity
to live


although
When people take
and take

and take
take take you for a sucker

you must have a sign saying

i am that sucker

that mother

i mean father

who made me the son
of a computer hacking
software cracking
trucker



So i drive
me crazy

in circles



Rupturing
as I've been


Faintly
I grin


Amazingly


Appreciative
of all my father did
to make me



who I am

him ridging
riding the ledge

of profanity
cramming tiny bits of me
into a pie

knowing you only see the center
of the whole

and the layers go deep


I cut onions for a living
cry often deep

softening me to these

waterfalls of discouragement
for
as i can no longer see any clearer
I am afraid
to type


sparks and smoke firework out
from a tear that parachutes
between W E on his PC

him ridging

her on a yacht

sucking down her bottle of whatever
she is into nowadays


as him is I unsuffice
by this device
that beats life
toward
one life

sharing
common interests

I knife
and slice
and dice
these onions

sleeping sound
squeezing on
to my
empty bag of funyuns
