Such a willing slave was I
Catering to the most immaterial dislocations
Listen to this organ grinder
Lay waste to liver and kidney
Set the selector for the visceral devices
A soft word
Insistent pressure
Peach juice on lips
The trace scent of gardenias
The brilliance of the sun
Exploding over Lake Erie
God, I-80 was boring
Obscene
Nothing to see
Like her verbal shocklights
Abstractions no longer for me
In the Greyhound mental lockdown
In a position of sleeplessness
Diesel fumes
Snow blindness
The remnants
Of her shocklights
Wise guy that he was
He just made it all the worse
Traveling far and away from the
Flameout wreckage of his severing
On an abandoned railroad trestle
He starts a prolonged disfiguring
He, so depraved
She, so unscathed
When he felt strong enough
He burns the lovelock
The give-and-take deteriorating
And he shouts down his nightly insomnia
With this one thought
There’s nothing
So disgusting
As a willing
Slave
