lysergic acid diethylamide & bad poetry

at th reading
disinterested
th poetry was killing me
and th Lsd was slow
Aristotle had already told me
not to put effort into that girl
something I knew offhand
for th madness already flowed inside me
maybe it war th army jacket
to wear it in th backyard in spring
and watch th flowers battle for soil
army stars rose in th ceiling
so I mounted a black horse, sounded a false alarm,
and rode through endless backyards
until I found her
settled in a bed of rifles and roses
and I was born again
into a smaller world
