Karma Doesn't Exist in Dayton.
By A.A.J.B.
Because it thought the booze was enough
to make me look the other way,
like any other cheap bitch would think,
withholding an "eye for an eye."
I'll take back my eyes, and then some
when I get this whisky down my fucking throat!
Offenders don't skip town. They go canoeing,
play corn-hole, and take routine trips to Alabama.
I know when they come back. I feel my scars itch.
It must be in the fucking water! And I've
concluded that its a piss poor excuse to
wear a fake crown while parading around Oakwood and
bragging about the base.
So I broke their Goddamn precious gem out of its
socket, and cracked it under my large shoe;
A third eye for material bullshit! Their noses crunched...
Don't tell me you care! Judas for the poor man just wants you
to make him feel good about himself!
Uptight bastards! And I hate your sense
of entitlement just because you add your own
excrement to the waterways.
"Brown noses and brown water." Don't make me repeat myself
and don't bother talking to me when my speech
is jumbled and messy. Wear your crooked crown of holy
bramble, and every church located here will say I stole
the wine from your greedy family even if I've
been choking on my vomit since noon. My only Jesus Christ pose
is turning money into beer. So I dare you to
tell me you never wanted me here so I can sit at the bar.
Then I can tell everyone how I truly feel about overgrown
children who play savior turned master.
And I'll promise to pull out my hair, and bruise
my arms just to let others know you didn't do your job!
So cheers!
Moon.

we learn of
celestial bodies in
science,
and i touch
what is
considered
forbidden
knowledge about
the stars;
the longing of
the supernova
to cover as
much of
the blackness
as it can in
a moment
of explosive
intensity. write
me a song on
the blackboard
in health class
comparing your
nature to the
onslaught of
solar winds,
atmospheric
pressure on my
lungs, and
the force of
gravity you
inflict
upon the
bearer of flowers.
tug and pull
celestial seeds
floating in
its own beaker.
attack me.
force me to
answer and
make me
want more.
ignore my
protest and eat
up the blank
space with
smeared
fingerprints and
crude words
about my lust in
the dark
and how
the night sky
swallowed me
whole.
