Black Comedy

A Poem by Jerusalem Cricket
"

Torture Porn

"
Now let us pray.
May hellfire rain down
on us today, on all those who
offered pay in
full metal change to watch
the life sized lights explode
& wicked witches
hanging by the throat
from a tenth floor window
it was all so cool.

so cool.

demon induced
dementia cemented in
an underground parking garage

sleepover
sleepless

starry eyed orphan
porn princess-
apparel section
regressing to an
oral fixation & a
need to keep the
fingers busy.

pink shag carpet
heart shaped atrocity

rotten thing.

you ain't the boss of me

paleface
scarab angel
seraphim snake
made up cheap

heart tarnished
purely
black comedy
legs like a limousine
keeping company with
the holy cross
dressers on the
local drug scene.

oh how special.

yesterday
I fed my
edificial fetish
& I could not
stop thinking.

these high
arched ceilings.
could not contain
my feelings,
if they tried.


drive by advertisements
remind me there's
not much
to be excited about.

I am not sure I've told you this previously, but I am very fond of your writing style. It is messy and different, and I like it.
