Morning New Disease

morning new disease charcoal in bed boansoaked anemic listen in horror to the scraping of flatware and china and saran wrap to stifle libido air shaft a chasm their lives flung open sickness is a time for hating your neighbors in their milk flats with five kids too many having day sex because they're all daughters and you're thinking the same two things over and over again I am dreaming of a life and I am dreaming of waking up there's this anger rising cancer in me standing like a wall between the waking world I seek and this infected plane of sleep love come like an axe to all this ice and set me free there's a black rewarding book beneath this stiff sheet if you look carefully noise police white hearse tv air wave methadone diet contact safe sex antibiotics for your safety we've taken sharp objects it's their object to keep you from waking taste test serenade we dig the grave lose weight astrologically no money down for your enjoyment we've excised the dialogue for your protection we've installed a camera just keep thinking the same clean thoughts
