Areola Fairy Surgeons
yes, you wanted delirium
so here, i’ll give it to you
you can be the main character in your own
action movie, sci-fi movie,
eating your bones and growing them out again movie,
a burgeoning kinetic pool
slacks into posture, wood-joined and suddenly operable
which is so much more exhilarating
than in real, the cunning yet seconds from a heart attack
way of my face. still & impregnable, still.
i’m doing a study,
it involves knowing her address and when she’s not home
(is what i actually say outloud
to the good joke i’ve made about
robbing my friends sisters house)
robbery is thrilling,
i really like owning things without giving
up anything in return.
why should i?
the floor of language is a
synapse i continue to dance on
permanently altering her brain chemistry,
she says outloud
not in reply to my imaginary dance moves, but
it sounds good when i cut it up and paste it into
the immaterial conversation
you must still be wondering about the areola fairy surgeons.
it was a good joke she told outloud.
you’ll just have to wonder.
through this ear and out this finger
dance, dance! a tent set up in under sixty seconds!
gun slingin on my hip!
doesn’t cost a thing!
