A Week of Poems (6/20/22 - 6/26/22)

I write at least one poem every single day, and have done so since September 2014. Here are the poems I wrote over the last week.

6/20/22:

Going Down to the Town

Going down to the town
That stands for all ages

Never gets shitty
Never becomes a city
Just is white bread toasted

The kind of toasting
Where no burn happens
Just gets dry on the outside
Soft on the middle

I like to walk into the stores
With not much in them and which sell
Items on consignment

I like to feel like all the stars
Are in alignment

As I sip a cherry pop
And wish there were some crime element

I should start killing people
With a knife wrapped in napkin
So the blood absorbs as it comes out

I think as I mow my lawn
For the fortieth time

And my wife sips wine
Deep in the cool basement

The decor is pretty uncool
But the coldness is good

It feels like a finished
Basement should

This marriage
Is finished

6/21/22:

Thunderbirds

Thunderbirds
And footage of girls

I like to whirl
A car around the corner

Life is a hornier
Version of death
We can actually fuck here

It’s rather queer
To have a body
And use it

As I drink muscle cars
And drive beers
And abuse it

A fat pair of tits in the backseat
And the cigarette lighter pushed on

I just can’t wait
For the end of this date
So we can get it on

My t-shirt so white
It’s bright even in the night

My cock so hard
It’s practically in charge

As I evade the cops
And am at large

6/22/22:

Full of Peanuts

Ice cream in a place
Full of peanuts

I like to be nuts
And get in my time machine
And see how good things really were

Not just how good I remember them
But provably so

You don’t even need much dough
You can go back with pockets
Full of change

If you go back with bills
Printed after then they’d look strange
But change is usually old

Everyone remembers people growing up
Who paid for things in lots of change

They were time travelers too

6/23/22:

Lots of Money

Lots of money
On the floor

It’s for the whores
I don’t need to
Pick it up

I already
Picked them up
That’s how they got here

I bought a lot of beer
And candy they wanted candy

I asked them exactly
What they really wanted
In that moment

We were standing in the
Convenience store and I
Wanted a glimpse of them really

And one looked me dead in the eyes
With utmost sincerity
And said candy

And the others nodded
And I bought them one of every
Candy bar at the counter that
They pointed to

They haven’t touched
A single one
This whole time

It’s just been sex
And pleasing me

I wonder when
They’ll eat

6/24/22:

To Do in the Car

So much coke
To do in the car

I like to go far
By way of limousine
Right across the US
If I have to

They have to switch drivers
Or switch limos
At a certain point

Sometimes an entire different
Limousine service

It’s a fucking hassle
And I like to watch it happen

I like to wipe my mouth
With McDonalds napkins
They smell different

They smell like the bathroom there
And I’m a piece of shit
So it’s fitting

I like to offer the drivers
Nuggets and fries

I like to feel the air conditioner
And stare out at hot weather
And feel alive

I like to spend money
And one day die

6/25/22:

Cumming Deep Inside My Mind

Cumming deep inside my mind
It’s only right
But it takes time

Just a good thing to do
Instead of touching myself

Life is a shelf
Where I put all sorts of things
To collect dust

My penis is a must
Got to put it up there
Like a trophy

Real high where only
A basketball player could reach

So close to the ceiling
It might as well touch the sky

I was born to never
Truly be a guy

6/26/22:

There’s a Shoe

There’s a shoe
In the place to be

Out on the dance floor
It’s just a dinosaur
Anymore

Still and might as well
Be bones the strap
So rigid looking

Nobody is looking
For it or cares to walk
Properly seemingly

I just wish this
Song would ever end

As I drink olive juice
And try to blend in
With the decade

Sex is a charade
I’m here for the blood
That pumps into a heart

It is an art
To notice things and cart
Someone off to home
