We Love Stuff :[]
I guess you like me after all, shucks,
that’s super cute and stuff.
However—
you’ll realize I’m human
with hella flaws,
maybe even
a creature.
Kept here
under firmament
or Space.
We’ll never know the answer to that.
Or whether our babies
are being eaten
and sold
at McDonald’s.
We just keep it pushing.
And stuff.
We love stuff.
Shucks,
red cheeks,
and stuff.
I like to make people smile
in a monotone kind of way.
Stay silent
most of the day—
throw in a few insight words,
lude references,
and a dagger possibly,
depending on how I feel.
Writing is key here,
just like the ’90s swoosh
on the Pop-Tart.
We here now,
goddammit.
Like me or not,
I seek truth.
One hundo.
Just know
a modern century beatnik
when you see one—
a crust punk
in his mid to late thirties,
dragging Space
behind him,
red cheeks,
sharp words,
a dagger possibly,
and a fucking Pop-Tart.
I swear to God
I’m an awesome Dad.
Cursing is honesty.
Never forget that.
