drugs, crayon-blonde (Absinthian Dreams Part One of Two)
2-11-06
I.
This is the ecstatic destruction
of drugs, crayon blond
flashing like capitalist hatred.
II.
Tomorrow, I’ll smoke you to bed
I’ll fuck you and rob you of innocence,
I’ll bomb your dreams to formulaic ash.
III.
ecstasy entwined
a knife of invulnerable yester-eves
binds us to the smell of incense
in lands trodden by lice.
Here, we’ll become wise,
stare smack-dab into our skew
and grin like God,
pornographically-stoned.
IV.
In the heat, my dick expanded, crazy-glue
my inspiration peaks at muscle contractions
of the perverted Korean variety,
streaming to me from Korean VHS tapes from decades askew.
V.
In a decade, peace is my ally, and I
I’ve seen vaginal calligraphy, God is my ally
and I’m smudged with incredible images
from my mother, television.
Help me in this slow vein
massages or kisses or
fuscia Rembrandt pasts, haunting
with moments to spare, call it
inseparably-queer,
lightning-storm liltings,
I find it still here.
Demons, I’ll show you the Buddha’s wrath
through neglect.
I know a guy named
Zany Plebe, KarmaDread BrianBrownBear Tams, but
he’s a nihilist, so fuck that rant,
I’m going to bed to embrace the Buddha’s bosom
in absinthian dreams, m’love.

I really didn't edit this that much, because I wasn't sure that there was that much to salvage.
Since I feel now like there was...I edited it. Thanks for the comments. This is the new version:

Hmmm...I feel like I should comment on this since I somehow ended up in it...
it's HIGHLY aggressive and comes off as overbearing at times. As sorry as I am, the last stanza is most definitely an afterthought and should be slaughtered immediately. "what? huh? who is this guy Zany Plebe? why is he a nihilist? what rant are you forgetting? why are you saying goodbye to me??" it's just confusing...
"ecstasy entwined

liked that.
"I’ve seen vaginal calligraphy"
i usually don't like the random sexual ejaculations (pun intended) you make into your poetry, but this one struck me as unique.
"Help me in this slow vein

fuscia Rembrandt pasts, haunting

Wonderful!
I liked a lot of it, if only you wouldn't try to be so aggressive all the time.
Whoa, this was creepy to the fifth power man!
But at the sametime so awesome....
But disturbing...
Are you alright?
"Here, we’ll become wise,

Favourite part.... for no reason, just had the word God and pornographically
