george de mohrenschildt
is coming by tonight
to play the song he wrote before he died
“i am a patsy”
“i am a patsy, i am a patsy!”
you’re so self-satisfied
in your preferences, preferences
all the way up on the 30th floor
i’ve been in the lobby for an hour
uncle ted 2024
and then no more, no more
dylan was outside when we got there
there were pictures of the flood
on the wall, on the wall
when a person could
open their hotel room window
i say do it, do it!
fuck it, throw the chair through it
i met the woman i’m going to marry
i’ll call her a-a-a-a in this song
i’ve had the same dream
every night of the week
for two years straight
here’s your threat of violence!
everyone smiling, smiling

I Love My Echo Chamber

something is happening to me
i’m no longer thinking clearly
no, i’ve transformed completely
no, i don’t recognize
i revel now in displeasure
brutality of another
it pleases me when you suffer
i know you suffer, right
violence escalates in my mind
on repeat all of the time
every day is a dog fight
every day alright
observe something so clearly
nobody else sees the same thing
isolated, not lonely
i love my echo chamber, okay

return, return
what was given to me
it makes my stomach turn
when i look at it straight
i cannot believe
the things they make us eat
frozen vegetables
laboratory meat
its sickening!
my face was on the screen
i had no time to think
inhalation quickening
panic takes to me
so easily
i remind you i have not been thinking clearly
each day separated from the whole
wanting, always, to get back to where i started
always wanting back there

western european
always on vacation
this is where the war began
would you like to buy a t shirt?
9/11 key chain
commemorative oj simpson snapback
a world where nothing happens
theatre with no actors
life begins and ends mid-sentence
the rules of attraction
i find you attractive
come here, please
remove your shoes, your jacket
traffic into the city
took most of the evening
i was in the backseat
of electronic taxi
the buildings uninviting,
but comforting somewhat
in their familiarity
i felt rather eager
to recommend solutions
to complex social problems
i admittedly had not studied
i knew a guy
who talked all of the time
he talked all of the time and he died
i suppress my laughter
as i board this escalator
taking me ever further
through scenes of endless horror
the comedian testifies
to the audience with his eyes
applause, applause!
