are we lost?

are we lost?

A Poem by Tim Lion

blue corpse said to a madman,

dog, we’ve got so much in common.

you’ll never consume my flesh unless

you learn how to love me.

 

then laughter filled the morgue,

or was it the Legion of Justice?

it’s time to taste the smell

of visions I’ve had with my fingers.

 

find your zero score.

I’m the Zen within.

bare fisted: Faith vs. Fear

in a big steel cage.

are we lost?

 

the devil wears my t-shirts

when he is watching me slumber.

it’s fine if I can have his word

that he’ll never abduct me.

 

I choked on the sacred peach pit

that sends liars to Heaven.

I only got a glimpse

before the saint b*****d revived me.

 

find your evermore.

I’m the high noon kill.

dust makes love to dust

where the beastmen hunt.

 are we lost?

 

madman said to the blue corpse,

hey babe, we should think about children.

our pain combined in spirit

may just spawn the next era.

 

fear not! the tape will never rewind,

all your sins are dead with the decade.

but now we’re digital,

and the sky’s got us sorted and filed.

 

dig a six foot hole.

fill it up again.

circle the slum once more.

flash those whitened teeth.

are we lost?

Fast, funny, machine gun lines fired from an old fashioned Tommy Gun. Consciousness not streaming, but bursting the banks. Hot Damn. Loved every drop.

twisted. funny. painful.
a stream of thought through chorused rapids.
Cobainish in movement and wording......
have you found your Infanticide album,
and started translating the words on the sleeve again?
LMAO!

Mr. Starbucks,
Everything is meant to be funny if you look at it naked.
This is just about the stupid things that clutter days,
waste life and leave us standing in the desert with our
hearts in our throats and our dicks in ours hands.

you're the most welcome!

Mr. Lion, you are the prince of poetic comedy, in particular the part made me laugh was:

1. hey babe, we should think about children.

our pain combined in spirit

may just spawn the next era.


Was that supposed to be funny>?

Sometimes, when the moon presses her naked chest to my window, and my wife is carving the value from trash scraps, I feel like I may never be able to outshine my finite timeline. And the worst part is.. more..
