play it slow
dumb it down
like a medicated clown
twisting limp balloons
into maroon quaaludes
and mumbling etruscan shanties
.
take a turn
pay attention
never mind the mention
flaccid memories persist
smothering fires of want
clouding the reasonable mind
.
go find it
discover fluffy realms
quell long-held qualms
release the misconceptions
fly free my demons
entice more deserving souls
.
dwell in peace
like dessicated pablum
suppressed with extra valium
awaiting the corrosion
from my acidic wit
and the hammer of your laughter
.
