Tell Saturn to Bring the Rings

I told her to bring the rings

So I can beat her to death with them

But not till after my soaps are done,

Saturn's a mistress

Spinning endlessly somewhere

Out there in a black mass 

Of dust and sharp metals,

I'm all carbon though

Hot air

Piss and vinegar

With whatever else

Still vying for a spot

To take place,

Bring the rings of stupidity!

The rings of fleshy delight!

I'll taste them every time

Stick them in my pocket

And forget I ever had them,

Humans are stupid like that

Especially in the summer time

When the vapors crawl down 

And make you do dastardly no-nos,

Things you only see on the news

Or maybe read about

 

Forget all of that though,

I'm laying on a beach now,

Dying,

Old people look jealous

Kids don't care per usual,

All the teenagers grab their camera phones

So they can upload this slice of life

To their social media gods,

I hope it gets a thousand hits

and launches a career,

It'll be the only positive thing 

I've ever done

I really enjoy the way your

I really enjoy the way your poetry feels like getting a one shot chance at being a mind reader, like I have stepped inside your persona and am veiwing your thoughts with slightly tinted rose coloured glasses, and I am never sure if I feel happy or sad after....


Much Love
