Do you know the
Glutton man?
He eats everything
Whenever he can.
Fried up chops
With a vanilla slice.
Oxtail soup
Gravy and rice.
Eat, eat, eat man
Shovel it in.
Eat the scraps
From the rubbish bin.
Wipe in grease
With your hands
Cover your body
In chowder and clams.
When he stops
It’s to take a breath
Then it’s soon,
On to the rest.
He doesn’t realise
He will overload
So that one day
He will explode.
He is having her watched
But he doesn’t know by whom.
He found a number
In a dingy dark room.
They park a new truck
Outside his home each day.
He thinks they live inside
But he really can’t say.
He thinks they make tapes
And record her conversations.
He thinks they compute
All of their observations.
He is waiting on a verdict
But hasn’t heard a thing.
He is beginning to wonder
If he should ring.
Perhaps she is guilty
And they are gathering information
Or maybe they desire her
And are watching in salvation.
Sometimes he worries
If this were true
He should warn her perhaps
That she is under their view.
Then he calms and settles,
Content to wait.
She brought it on herself
She deserves this fate.
She likes ice-cream
because as it melts
it becomes like a creature
with many explorative tentacles.
She lets it drip over her
and feels it run into her private crevices;
secret places that no man or woman
can touch.
Ice-cream leaves her body sticky
Like it has cum upon her.
She has to shower her body,
outside and in.
Ice-cream is tutoring her new lover.
She allows ice-cream to explore her body
and lays back while her lover
attempts to follow its path with her tongue.
Lost in a reverie
Contemplating the glass of diluted dreams.
The tears gently trace the familiar trail
As she ponders “what is self-esteem?”
Quickly the glass empties
As she pours ever more.
The warmth of the alcohol
Fires her deadened core.
The bleakness of life
Crushes her face to the floor.
How is it love became difficult,.
Why am I wanting for more?
I don’t remember when it was
That I lost complete control
I can’t even remember
When I was last whole.
When did it happen?
She is confounded yet again,
Downing another alcohol promise
Because dreaming causes her pain.
She lost her soul
And can’t remember where.
She doesn’t realise she entrusted it
With those who care.
I’m in trouble again
I’m in loads of strife.
I’ve only just learned,
I’ve been seeing Satan’s Wife.
I should have known
from her seductive smile
But I was just too tempted,
helpless and beguiled.
So I’ve gotta run
not go back where I’ve been
because Satan knows
and he wants my skin.
So for thirty days
I’ve been hiding out.
I rented a room
On the 66 route.
I found a casino.
I’ve been drinkn’ there.
I’m back to thinkin’
I aint gotta care.
But I’m in trouble again
I’ve not been doin’ what I oughta
I’ve only just leaned,
that Satan’s got a daughter.
So I’ve gotta run
not go back where I’ve been
because Satan knows
and he wants my skin.
He started by licking letter openers
And the edges of opened cans.
Two years later, he found paring knives
and ran them across his hands.
He took to chewing wire
Like it were tobacco chunks
The ends would puncture through his cheeks
Forming hardened bloodied lumps.
Yelling, yelling loudly, as he chases after life
Chasing always creating, bigger, greater strife.
He would snake his hands into fires
And stamp on shattered glass.
He began to find an addictive pleasure
In shoving bottles up his arse.
One good day he found an arrow
And snapped it off at the head.
He thrust it into his beating heart
Which pumped whilst being bled.
Whisper, whisper softly as his life drips to the floor.
He pushes it in harder, and tastes of his own gore.
