khlebnikov’s funeral will not televised
poem
do you own your own life
or the life of an imposter created just for you
there is little help coming for the original
but my god
there’s help coming from all directions for the imposter
and it will cost you and cost you dearly
and you will be willing to pay
so come on down and join the homogenous mob
poem
sphinx words
like mona lisa
never smile
and you you
are no cheshire cat
it’s all a mystery to me
don’t be late for the matinee
poem
it means so much that you love me
how much will that be today
that much
i thought it would be so much more
oh oh today’s the blue light specialLiter
