My life as a bird

[stilltrucking]

I enjoy it very much
I don't have to think very much
I just peck at shinny things
I don't have to think about hermeneutics, subtexts and such.
I just peck away at the keyboard
and a little slot opens up and delivers me a a banana flavored pellet of vain self satisfaction.
when I think I have been clever.

time for bed I think
my fingers are getting sticky
too much moral clarity for one night.

[SadLuckDame]

My life as a dragon
I'm a beast in my hunger
a flaunt-er of mysteries
I've only to dive deep
or soar high.
I enjoy it much
I don't have to cooperate, naturally
I just go hot in any direction
without knowing anyone else's lessons, mistakes or preachings
I'm in it solely, let my wrongs be lonely
and I'll die on my own
not have knowledge of any but mine one-selves
attraction or merely reactions
in the sea or sky
without touching ground.

[stilltrucking]

and I'll die on my own

too late for that now
we were born into this
and I think we must all die alone
except for Jesus Christ
or Hank Williams Sr.

hard to think of Bukowski without the image of him kicking the shit out of his wife.
but the blondes with the tight pussies came too late for him too.

too late
too lae
my mother's mantra to me
and she convinced me thirty years ago that it was true.
I float above the ground
like a feather in the wind
I was not her favorite son
just her baby boy
but who can blame her
I don't think people with children can ever die alone
but that is not what you said.

"die on my own"

that is something else now that I think about it.

They say Jesus the Christ died for us
Wouldn't that be sweet.

Makes me want to run about six red lights in his honor or even persecute an old Jew too.

I got to go find a girl with far away eyes
