FLIP THE SWITCH

February 3, 2014
FLIP THE SWITCH stick a torpedo in my vein bang bang shoot it up destiny a spoonful if mud or rock cock-a-doodle-doo in a rooster vox butterflies kiss in mid air my head is throbbing and not the good one the one that hurts not squirts I've never known a transvestite that didn't get lipstick all over itself or wore the right size girdle or tits I waffle about waffles I'll give you that self help books should come with a self nevermind The Help they shit in chocolate pies risque biscuits are risky business I've buttered more than a few as a protagonist once exclaimed twice my heart skipped a beat and felt like it swallowed it was scary just the same a famished heart a spiral staircase that leads to nowhere would be a long vacation crimson carnations garnet flavored Aquarius let the sunshine in Windex works well when wiped wet "screw you" said the light bulb with verisimilitude too loud so I flipped him off 10-10-2013
