Human Entropy and Endless Orgasms

Some will be guilty in this vast human playground

there will be crimes and violence

there will be grieving and deeply felt pain.

There are ragged junkies with itchy need

just across the street

they scream at night GET OFF MY PROPERTY

and sit on the porch in the parched morning

staring at their shoes and their phones.

 

Socrates erupted out of the goo and got a car loan.

The serious gorilla stared at me through the glass then

took a drag from the glass pipe and went away for awhile.

The walking fish sold me insurance

the exploding star after filing for bankruptcy

became a democrat

and the protoplasm with the inferiority complex  bought Cheerios.

I saw all those trillions of sperm lost

to the toilet and the careless floor

and then I saw you shoplift a pack of cigarettes

as the trained monkey with the pillbox hat

gave investment tips to the organ grinder.

 

He stared at his shoes and his phone, so sick so tired so weak.

He saw an ant pass by his foot dragging a crumb

from last weeks hot dog

struggling mightily with the weight of it

so he could bring it to the colony

precious food, survive survive.

He was going to step on it,

but decided not to.

  2. Engaging, raw, slaps you into reality with the mentioned observations.
    I read it a second time, sad, but unfortunately a very true side of our world.
