You’ve given every girl that wears
your lipstick the gift of total ownership.

My 8mm family set my head
feral my brother did something heartbreaking to a dog I told my sister if
you’re going to hold the exorcism of a dyybuk or a slewy case of epilepsy why
do it at night in a deserted mental hospital or derelict church & just because
the windows are stained doesn't mean your flight will be holy doesn't guarantee
you’ll crash through zoom sideways over the river glide above fishes & kids
getting high on oxy under the bridge & just because I used my warning sister
arguments until you pinched your eyes & chatted up the Virgin & told
her about the records I stole & everyone’s presents that one Christmas
& just because bees were elegant gods & your feet tiny princesses &
your throat bright poison doesn’t mean the ground won’t come up real fast
like Wile E. Coyote chasing the Road Runner only to meet a cliff that never
existed to slam your body out of its green summer dress & strappy sandals
& very best lace slip who even wears slips these days even during exorcisms
& your hair spread it spread how it spread into wings & flapped hard
enough to frighten frogs from our mother’s grimy mouth
