YOU ARE A CAROUSEL

I wish you’d squeeze my hand
so you could feel how I
beatbox for you it’s romantic
I swear like tornadoes &
pink champagne how they is
all a cacophony of oysters
funneled down the throat
accordion belly & tilt-a-whirl
the lawns are so brown here
they make me wanna file off
my fingerprints the neighbors
are windows giant flatscreen
TVs & I wave to everyone
like I wanna ride them too.


ODE TO YOUR COOL HANDS

I be your horse
to whip & to hold
not corps
not busted ankle
bone & down
my throat you
can plug every
dime every
quarter so I be
your parking meter
& you be my
pipe cutting tool.
