eat your meat by Lake e. Lou

eat your meat


and Lesley Selcer

spinning out across breath,
filled with stars and eyes and
mid mid midnight skies
all the words fell out
lost in black wet
falling below there
where patterns of eyes close
& close & close closed
into the shape of stars
disaster swept out to the sides
turned blue for a minute
she's neatly sweeping in the sides of her explosion
trapping it
contained within the glass sides of her jar
sweet smellsssssss
every word issss hyper-extended
she's swatting at the thoughts
that keeps trying to fly fly fly away
i cry i cry i
puke on you
you morrissey-robert-smith-fed
snotty little girl
hiding in the corner without an identity
and waiting for someone
to come admire your beautiful beautiful sorrow
someone told you once
that woman were most beautiful
on the verge of a breakdown
and you've been trying for one ever since
every week it seems
dwelling dwelling deep in your hole
with black and blue tears on the pillow
you'll be one of the beautiful, dammit
who forgot to tell you about life
and where is the way out of this place
where is there life outside the lonelylonely cave
Nick Cave would put his cigarette out
on your pouty little pout
pouty little girl
inspired by Molly Ringwald
and her pouty little pouty little attitude
and her sad sad sad grace
where do you go when you fall out
of the car door? into the air
up to the tree branch?
under the skirts
& through every hula-hoop
out onto the highway
blood on a candycane stick
clean your plate, may i be excused
in the corner with brown sugar for hours
lock me in the basement tonight
eat your meat
eat your MEAT
scrape and whine of knives on white china
scrape and whine of kitties in the laundry chute
scratch under the collar
and her big pock-marked face
coming down the stairs at you
after sitting for hours
fists in ears not blocking
the screams through the
sound of running shower water
get off me Anne Sexton!
she's riding me like a big red harley
Anne Selcer
Anne Sexton she be dead!!
i'm alive i sing the song of myself!
