Dead one

This here creature is a dead one
already feeding on its own corpse
50 years from now on
already observing the flesh
abandon its bone arcades
already sucking its eyes out
spiced with pepper
& crowned with olives:
now snails
of higher tasteforms...

this here creature is beer obnoxious
standing in a thunderbolt
tequila boompalace
drinking straight from the shower
standing in front of a word gun

already watching his dead dick dance
w/ worms
of fatal forgiveness
stiffer
salsa

death's orgasm's death...
this creature likes extremities

this here creature's
a frozen frame already
motion picture dead rat
50 years from now
checking in to the underworld Ritz
champagne and caviar included
poised and ready for bald ladies
of Charon
messing w/ fat cats on Valium

how strange for the now-creature
to look at the dead one
and wonder:

how mice-sized are the life-important
dominoes of breath
the traps of coming and leaving...

so the now-creature sighs
and waits for no-one...
