Hangover Poem 23 (Return of Darkman)

Post by mnaz » November 17th, 2008, 7:04 pm

"Borrowed" from another cyber poet out there..
Apologies in advance...

#23):

Hung upside down by his knees,
out on some transmission tower, moot.
See the whites of clouds before they shoot.
Darkman is one tower short of a desert.

Drama Lama landau, Dalai dali dali.
Rechannel flannel vinyl de-vinyl final.
De-eliminate liquefy liquid liquid statuesque.
Liquid, my god it's all liquid.

Ten thousand volts.
Crackle 'n sway.

Anyway Darkman unwinds,
watches the inverted fusion planet,
strummin' a hum, mappin' its atoms,
and muses, "a beer would be good now",
except he's upside down and it's not October.

Mainly, Darkman is late for work.
And conversely.

Thanks Doreen. It was an upside-down day. The images came naturally.
