Pumpkin

What if everything else is the same,
but every six turns into seven?

Would you need to know?
Would it show in your face,
if your face were a pumpkin?

Are you my pain?

Are you my Dad, or are you my dilaudid?
Are you my pain?

I asked for cocaine and you gave me a pumpkin!
Are you my pain?

Are you my prison?

Call from Mom

"Let me tell you what
   time it is here in the
      Seychelles," she says...

Seven years since I
  heard your voice in a goddamned seashell
     and you're still the same
         silly girl
              lamb of God
                  talking clock

Radio

Brain like a cheap radio
News from TokyoRomeBuenosAires
Sad tunes from Texas and Oklahoma...

Gossip from the stars somewhere
driving around in their dream cars.

Mom and Pop

Your mom's butt blotted out my bop-planetoid!
Your pop's meat-trombone moshed my emoticon!

Now it's time to chop them up!

Chop them up into wop-bop-a-loo-bop!
Chop them up into wop-bop-bam-boom!

Flesh

Guy comes in with a meat-cleaver.
He wants to sell us
human flesh
out of a portable ice-chest.

I would keep it for myself, he says,
but I want to make
room for you
in my ice-chest.

FYI

Got a hog for a doctor,
and you're the sausage!

Got a hog for a doctor,
and you're the hotdog!

What's the source of this story?
I heard it from a hog!

Tour

This is Abraham Lincoln's escritoire.
It contains a list of all known insectivores.

Who wants to know the names of all known insectivores?
Nobody wants to know!

Everybody wants my monkey!
