Hallucinations Of A Poet
Eight poems about thinking too hard about nothing.
The Absurd
there are times where the lives of my other universe selves
seem arranged like standing dominoes
or a flipbook shown in a kinetoscope peephole
backwards and forwards in a tunnel of space and time
and I see all the stepping stone moments in all the bubbles of me
I am a few billion linear seconds on a planet moving fast
in circles around a sun moving even faster
and I exist always and existence is a ruse
fooled with chemicals into thinking I have agency
with specified cells turning ocular tricks
seeing things upside down and fixing it in post.
The Incomprehensible Man
the incomprehensible man thinks everything is intolerable
and it’s decadence for the others to not follow along
his thousand page theses
and moral rot for them to not agree
with his footnoted ranting conclusions
and he will not accept the notion
