Heaven Is A Whorehouse

Post by Lightning Rod » June 15th, 2008, 10:54 am

heaven must be a whorehouse
somewhere just south of via Acuna
where the swindle witness worked for
the authorities in a wistful spring dimension

cactus and poppies succumb to my pliers
a template of loneliness and desire
and cracked up contemplation

I sit at the feet of god every morning
heaven is created like an orgasm at dawn
or in barely conscious realms
that only remember dreams and admonitions.

my soul is a corpse rendered mild
and a palette of colors from the abrupt
to the pastel wanderings of ghost van goghs

Yes, heaven must be South of the Border
and corrupt as my instrument galactic
foul weather and solar storms.
I've got my ticket.

nice poem
Purgatory, like Heaven or Hell
states of mind
no borders or boundaries

I think there is a little motel in Purgatory
the jets in the tub are severe
and the vibrating bed

meet me in Purgatory

I'm saving my quarters for the slots
I'll take any chance I've got

If you want a real laugh
let's check in to the Motel 5 and a half

Oh go ahead.

I've never banned anybody

weird.

I repeat.

Weird again.

And hell, you're an admin... you could ban yourself if you want to.

You can lick jelly off anybody you want to lick it off.

You can stick quarters in anybody's vibrator too. I don't give a shit what you do.
