Pessimistic Dick

This is another old poem by Bazooka but freshly published with Vocal. Enjoy!

Under this big bright corolla that burns my skin brown,

the waves of people’s utterance boggles my mind

like a child watching a bloody film.

-

The lucid sky filled with streaks of vapor

that contaminates my vision of contemplation

with carbon crap-oxide and the rest of those fuels.

-

The trash, charred mountains with melting dirty brown snow caps

fills the rivers with clumps of oils

and other pews.

-

The ocean green

but yet making a stand against the discrete pipes

that spills the shit of this numbing faction.

-

I piss fluorescent, I spit tobacco,

and I drink the fluids that poisons my liver

to put up with the wheel that makes the locomotive spin.

-

I smoke the grass, I chew the meat,

and I make love to the other gender

to make the wheel produce more and more and never win.

-

At night pondering under the milky streak of the way,

the words of Beatnik’s awakens my cynical fury

to chastise the machine that produced me.

-

Poets and artists die to be emblems of the canon

who portray pain and agony,

but it’s not enough to move that damn fleet.

-

Ginsberg, Milton, Shelley,

and even that psycho Plato

tried to compromise with us.

-

I still love

so the sweet words of Ginsberg and Blake

that make me realize beyond this plain.

-

I dream, I cry,

I ponder on this ecliptic radial wave

that I live in seven days, months, years, and even millenniums of tears.

-

I scream inside myself,

I prowl with my friends,

In the end, I want to steal the axle that spins the wheel.
