It's just simple case
of man mocking art
mocking man.
Go ahead.
Be a mocker.
Who said that?
hey, if I write another poem
will Julia Roberts play
Alice Sutton one more time?
hey
don't laugh
it isn't funny
hey
does your mother know?
you're an asshole.

I'll sneak up behind you
by that statue over there,
it's missing half its head.
I'll say that I need you so
and I'll be wearing red.
Next time when you hear me
I'll use someone else
I'll say that you should kill someone -
either that or else . . .
Right or wrong won't matter anymore
cuz you are upside down
from all the things I've thrown at you
you run from town to town . . .
The victim I have set you on
has a special coat,
but you won't need to know that
now that we've begun.
Their manners and that coat
will seem unto your brain
as a torture yet again
and you will kill as I have aimed . . .
And for an ending now
you will find yourself relieved,
taken to some dirty cell
or dead upon the street;
safe from me you find yourself reprieved.
