"...my hair stands still like a goose feather quill on a cold windy moor where the rain starts to pour & spits in my face from every which way when all of a sudden, I am struck by the sock-static-shock of god!...roast me on the end of a pike in the palm of your hand, oh Lord..."
WELL THAT SIP WAS A HOT ONE
DRIBBLING DOWN MY BEARD
&
FALLING INTO MY CROTCH
MY FAITH FLICKERS
AS IT MELTS MY FOUNDATION
&
I
FALL
TOOTH & NAIL
UP & DOWN
THE STAIRS
YOU KNOW HOW IT IS
I'VE GOT A LOT OF THE LUMINATOR IN ME THESE DAYS
HIS FINGER PRINT IMPRESSED UPON MY CLAY MIND
ALL MUSH BEFORE BEING
FORMED
INTO A SPEARHEAD
&
DRIVEN INTO THE SIDE OF A DOG
MIND YOUR SHOES
AS THE INSIDES SPEW FORTH ON HORSEBACK
DECORATED WILD & BEAUTIFUL
LIKE FEATHERED GODS WHO'VE GOT
A SHARP FERMENTED BITE TO THEM
BUT WHO AM I TO SAY?
YOU CAN CRASH HERE FOR AWHILE
BEFORE THE FINAL TRANSPORT LEAVES
FOR THE GREATER OUTER WORLDS
DON'T TELL YOUR DOCTOR WHAT YOU REALLY THINK OF HER
LUMINARIOT IN HER GOLDEN CHARIOT
DON'T GIVE IT A SECOND THOUGHT
BUT SCATTER
INTO THE BRUSH
AS THE PREDATOR SLITHERS TOWARD OUR WATERING HOLE
WITH THAT SEXY BED HEAD LOOK
MINOTAURUS FLEX
&
A WHOLE LOT MORATORIUM
ARE YOU STILL THERE?
IN THAT OLD TEXTBOOK
IN THE FORGOTTEN FILES OF MY MIND
WHERE I REMEMBER
SEEING A FLICKERING LIGHT
ENCASED IN SPACE
ENROLLED IN A KIND OF
RUMINATOR LUMINATOR
SPECKLING THE PAVEMENT WITH BLOOD AS
I STUMBLE
INTO SCARED PASSERS-BY WHO YELL
'CALL THE POLICE!'
TO NO ONE IN PARTICULAR
&
WITH QUICKLY WANING URGENCY
MY SCREAMS ARE DROWNED OUT BY THE LATEST BUS
LATE TO MOVE THE COGS AGAIN
THE TIRED MACHINE CHUGS ALONG
WITH NO ONE TO CLEAN OFF THE PIGEON SHIT FROM ITS
VACANT EYE-HOLES
&
TO STOP THE TEENAGERS FROM PISSING ON THE RUSTY BITS
THE SAD SCENE SCREECHES TO A LONG DRAWN OUT FART IN THE WIND
STUCK N A JARRARIUM MILES BENEATH THE EARTH'S SURFACE
IN AN ABANDONED SUBWAY STOP WITH A GRAND PIANO & CHANDELIER
OUT OF PLACE IN THIS TIME
FOR WHATEVER THE TERM IS WORTH
IN TODAY'S COVERED MARKET
WHERE I BOUGHT THOSE PIRATED SHIPS
&
OFF-BRAND NOVELTY T-SHIRTS
I DRESS TO MATCH MY CORPORATE OVERLORD'S DRIBBLE
EACH COLOR MATCHING PERFECTLY
LIKE A BODY LEFT IN THE WOODS
OVER TIME LIBERATED FROM ITS SHALLOW GRAVE
BY HEAVY RAIN FOR 30,000 YEARS
MAN, THOSE CREATURES WERE SHOCKED TO FIND IT
IN SUCH BEAUTIFUL GARB
BEDAZZLED IN CORPORATE LOGOS
LIKE A GOOD SLAVEDRONE
LUMINEERING TO SUPPLEMENT HIS INCOME
COME RIGHT IN & HAVE A LOOK AT MY THROAT, DOC
MY GLANDS ARE ALL SWOLLEN
&
I CAN BARELY SWALLOW THIS TRIPE
CAREER DAY AT THE SCHOOL FOR LOST PLANETS
&
MISGUIDED FOUNTAINS OF YOUTH
PUT THAT GRAIL DOWN!
YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE IT'S BEEN!
EAT CHRIST & WASH HIM DOWN WITH HIS OWN BLOOD
YOU
FUCKING MONSTER
YOU
LUMINITE
CONJURED FROM THE TAR REALM
BUBBLING OVER INTO THIS LOST LAND
WHERE THE DEMONS GARGLE FILTH
&
FEAR
&
SPIT IT DOWN MY SLEEPING EAR
THAT I MIGHT SERVE YOU ALL MY YEARS
MY LUMINARIA
