NO LOVERS, EXCEPT GOD AND THE DEVIL.

It is good to be here!!
And not there, wherever you are.
I have alienated myself from civilization

by launching myself up into the stars.
Anyhoo… I’m rolling past a colony of nudist,
and down a mountain
of sexy lingerie.

YOU ARE WITNESSING MY BRAIN-FOOTAGE
FROM BEYOND THE GRAVE.
Everything is permanent;

nothing is worth saving.
I have lived my whole life
to the tick of a clock with no arms.

REAL HOUSEWIVES OF SHIT CITY.

My name is Toilet Man; I have a toilet for a brain.
This is my gift:
to feel so terrible that I can’t stop
writing things down.

You are currently witnessing:
HALF OF MY BRAIN CELLS WHICH ARE ALSO
ALL OF MY FRIENDS.

I’m an old man, but I look young on the page.
I don’t go ever outside
unless I’m disguised as a nun.

Baby you can cut my cake
with cocaine.

You’re gonna wish you said your prayers.
