Shit of the Hague

 

shit legalize drugs

dog collars on animals called children

defecating on the burial mounds of your meager gods

shit ginsberg didn’t chirp in vain

every one of you will lie under the international tribunal at the hague

 

shit legalize my prostitute-girlfriend and my prostitute-self

legalize us smoking opium during our breaks between clients

again they threw paper towels into the toilet it’s now clogged with

shit

shit

 

shit legalize drugs

the masses demand antibiotics

for their souls

as teenagers knead their cocks

through adidas pants

 

shit legalize

shit legalize

the shit of the hague

 

weightlessness

out-of-body-ness

legalize gaiety

and carelessness

 

legalize the freakish the wretched

legalize mescaline and magic mushrooms

syringes injections

potions and trips to nowhere

 

shit legalize anal conception

the cloning of guys with out-of-this-world bodies

genetic engineers with cocks down to their knees

a new aesthetic: prepackaged boys that come from packets

 

legalize silicone lips

and tits too

legalize multicolored skin

legalize the queer the dissent

 

shit legalize illegal aliens

shit legalize the killing of narcs

shit legalize junk

and junkies with perforated arms

 

legalize getting high and shit-faced

drugstore cowboys

the swill the vomit the anal filth

the barely discernible line of the horizon

 

and you fat-assed cops

crooked-mouthed mickey mice

box-faced feds

shit-mongers and shit-dealers legalize

 

the rancorous and the corrupt

you’re all the same

no better than any one

you think you’ll never be punished

 

here’s my boot to your balls

red-hot flatiron to your gut

blowtorch to your soles

your hands all in blood and shit

 

leave the tracks in the memory of your lamebrain-offspring

legalize fist fights under a bloody moon

let the entire world impale itself on a needle

let the entire world go fuck itself
