mondo's mad lib poem



pretty box's pretty box

darkly i have never sung, simply beyond
any room, your candle have their dirties:
in your most evil potato are things which prepare me,
or which i cannot love because they are too stiffly...

your trashy look stiffly will unfight me
though i clean myself as hammer,
you dislike always cigarette by cigarette myself as knob ruin
(memorizing gladly, sadly) her stupid finger

or if your reality show be to jump me, i and
my diamond will shout very sleepily, hungrily,
as when the animal of this room cry
the canvas ruggedly everywhere dying;

nothing which we are to eat in this pillow lie
the dart of your bleak mirror: whose spaceship
weep me with the film of its glasses,
hungering steak and postcard with each desiring

(i do not yawn what it is about you that dream
and shine; only something in me preen
the dictionary of your candle is dry than all knob)
water, not even the bean, has such an ugly authority figure

Hi Mondo R.!

Nice to see you in blogland. I have often enjoyed the mondo links on your old site, and dig the new format. Some language viruses don't need an antidote!

Keep on bloggin'
