REDEYED BOTANY

Met this barrel’s maimed bottom,

Made my way back up to the top.

Like the spider, Miss Muffet,

Tuffet she sat on, all trouble resulting.

Botomania, blotto ain’t ya? I see you out there, skulking.

I ain’t your saviour, now get; I’m sulking, eyes sunken making

Arrangements, pot plants in plant pots for non-pot pot plants.

Flip flops and hot pants

On the arid decking half-cut dancing to Marilyn Manson.

Standing over the pool, water like a brumal blue jewel,

Reflecting God back at God,

And God is good so be good or be off;

Nipples missing consigned to the bog.

Non-stop popping, a pill gobbing prodigy,

Frequently nodding off on oxy.

Live in the wind so they can’t dox me,

No interview so they can’t hot seat.
