This face in a black light haze
when the street light shades pulled tight
to the window pane
we froze from the rush and attack
synth tone from the back room
soup with a wax spoon
–
“Too soon.” said the dead to the joke
when he’s framing the wheel
when the bicycle spoke
–
Run with the pack
get left in the back
with a fang in your kneecap
I’ll laugh with a knee-slap
–
Jelly on the plate like a salisbury steak
–
Poisoned soy sauce
pass the hoisin
–
Repeat say please
say peace
Fig Newton my soul in a cake or a roll
bound to escape or at least make parole
when I’m drowning in coffee you’re reading your scroll
–
Ride on my Falcor with Calgary Flames logo
on his matte white mustache grease
–
Funny how a guy tries Tae Kwon Doe
just to get knuckle busted with
his eyes wide closed
–
Plantain brand-name amscray lame brain
–
Butter in the briefcase
–
Cop another lambchop
–
Michael Jackstone in Bedrock
–
Mix cement in a pelican
–
Hold on tight
–
Match point
–
Bearded man blues
he escaped from the side show
–
Eyes closed
not smart with the rifle
but aim straight from the tower
slick with a bible
–
Prime numerals flash the dash
in my Subaru
no stash in the ash
no cash cause I’m beautiful
–
Fate scrapes jaws over fake meat
I won’t pause for applause from the dank seats
stained with the turtleneck tissue that’s painted
gold or a coral in the hole with a blanket
–
Faces in the crowd where crowns made of brown bags
unknown comics make salary
no name tags
first rap act on The Gong Show
I walk slow up to the stage
wear a sweater and a dog nose
