amphetamine

annie dog

has a leash

and a face

her velvet spleen

her shackle spine

her diamond curse

it comes with mine



a vessel she for violent i

confession arms awake

mine, mine you were always mine

possessed by my taste



and below

the angel dog

combs her hair

and sings her psalms

the bombs go off

she doesn't notice

it all goes wrong

she sets things tragic

she is venus

she is mars

she's electric

and the struggle of



upon her face we leave no trace

but in her stomach mercury aged

she holds the blood, she carves the knives

she digs the wires in our babies



amphetamine

annie dog

pulls her trash

and her stories

from place to place

and bed to bed

gives herself

and the magnet head

another floor

another ceiling

counting stars

with double meanings



is it wrong to be swallowed whole

to disappear in her

to give to her the priceless peace of giving up control



we tumble out

into the street

and annie dog

she drags her leash

pretty face

ugly mouth

bitter bred

and so released



and by the no

and in the yes

annie goes

if you couldn't guess

a simple man

a sycophant

her elephant

with the laughing cough

she wants clean sheets

and fresh flowers

her dental shots

and the hong kong glue

amphetamine

annie dog

has her leash

and a face
