Black rage metal
of the 1930s caliber;

sad and angry
is who I am.

‘Cause the world
is crASHing

like a fucking
merry-go-round
caught in a tornado.

Rubber bands snapping
against wrists
in lieu of
shiny sharp things

[which hide in red leather;

Words are scratched out
on brittle paper
and loneliness
is like a dust storm;

it’s in your mouth
your hair
your eyes-

it chokes you,
fills your lungs
    [like sweet smokey tar]

and kills you.

Finally, a poem that isn't a piece of shit.
