this hunger is insatiable, this ride is endless.
every day is a clusterfuck
through jogging beards
and mustachioed smears;
every day is a misadventure
if you want it to.

pull out at the last minute and hope for the best-
by god goodbye.
how did you do that?
how do you do?
what’s in your mousetrap?
what’s in this stew?
it’s just a trick of the eye.
your neck is bent downward:
your back is hunched:
you look like a question mark
that’s been well punched.
stop, slow, speed up, skid
who’s the daddy and who’s the kid?
question mark, question mark
what have you done?
Just a well dressed hick
with a dirty stick
and a burden of guilt
that weighs a ton.
