Poltergeist

Banana burps and
Freudian slips fuel
the poetic fires for
now, but the stick
figure of a cancer
patient offends
cancer patients
nationwide because
of her willful choice
to be a poltergeist
between the hillsides
and the Mighty Missouri,
but choice is the kerosene
hallmark of the human stain
and that's why the
fake poltergeist
is on her way
to becoming a
real poltergeist.
