Let's address to no one
since he comes out of this story poorly
it's been a long time godless/gutless
walking through these observatories
everybody screams but he looks to the referee
his glove
as allah leaves he leaves the door ajar
blood may be spilled on islamic streets but please don't take my badge away from me
as allah leaves he leaves the door ajar
like an elephant in a small porcelain shop

Fabienne is in my room
and from the desk she quotes to me
she brands herself another foreign citizen
depending on moods or a lack of sleep
a journal keeps the brain undone she claims
'bourgeoisie keeps busy'
the hammering sounds like guns (or) text patterns of the likes of bukowski and walt disney
to feel poetically contained
while a gripping self-loathe is present
to defy and go unrestrained
she takes to emphasizing accents
'The theater burns
yet the actors they keep mouthing their lines
the bladder bursts
and the teeth fall out
but the fires are burned to ash
and the sex of things is hidden
in the finger of a glove'
-H. miller, black spring pag. 24
the fever did not break, he broke the typhoid fever
the fever did not break, he broke the typhoid fever
the fever did not take, he took the typhoid fever
the fever will not take she took the goddamn...
is fabi leaning into fired bullets for just about anyone?

Playing doctors and nurses
if you'd be the medical practitioner I'll be freighter adrift, carrying curses
passed the mouth down the belly and the blood stream
forever floating inside it's the 2nd grade intensity of this:
almost religiously
we convinced one another
that life is med stories
religiously claire claims it must suck to be
someone else right now
she's in ambulance/turbulence
doctors make the worst patients
split scalpels lift skulls
'there's nothing like a hot bath in a cold world'
now that claire is where she once started
she's never going back
if you don't have anything nice to say,
well, SAY IT IN ALL CAPS
now that claire is where she once began
she's never looking forward
if you don't have anything nice to say
WE'LL SAY IT IN ALL CAPS
(let's get our medical senses back)
so doctors make the worst patients
so split scalpels lift skulls
and 'there's nothing like a hot bath in a cold world'

How come for such an asshole you're really good at funerals?
you're on a drunk enthusiasm but only at such...
if you had only met me before the marriage
if you had only met me before the strife
how come for such an asshole you're really good at funerals?
you're on a drunk enthusiasm (but) only at such reunions
are you a fortunate son?
or aren't you?
short life equals so much less rent
