WHY WE TRY

the triumph
of the will
to rub its thick thumb-like trunk
over the secret map of grubs
to take the orange paste
of its anal pearls
and spread it out before
all the swine known to the land
as dirt

we shopping carts
hired a meaning
for 3 pesos a week
and we beat the little meaning
because we are cruel
heartless beasts
and then the little meaning cried:
'i am only a little!'
'i only cost this much!'
'why do you beast me?'
to which we replied:

GAAANKKKGONNLONKK
GRAAAG OONNKKGGHH
DOOOO

and so forth
the triumph of the swill
to rob its quick tool base
over the secret ruse of 'things'
to swear out into the camphor

the dove
which has no hair
has gone out from the boat
which is Jonoah's barbershop
quartet whale

dna shaman barber pole interlude

let that naked hairless ape dove
fall down on its knees
and cry about the sad story of the earth
and about the deluded mind
and how it tried to climb

the deluded mountain
of madness
