I want to see all paradoxes writhing naked
I want to see good men inverted and emptied,
Their proud heads falling to the ground
Along with their crowns that reached their umpteenth;
And their worthless virtues breaking without a sound
And I want to see reality seething,
Their livers screaming
Them Housed in stones,
Sluts in huts
And I want to see their blood whimpering in oval arteries,
As it courses through acute malignancy of their being
I want to see again how they exchange their flesh for gold
I want to see zombies lying flat
I want to see honey filled in the head;
Existence all white till the darkness is dead -
And Swap the bees humming around in oblivion
Time after time,
I've beheld this world as it moves to and fro
in awkward malignancy,
lying through its brow
lying in the gutter now
I stand in the centre...
A poor person, diffident like drugs,
Searing within my own lungs
As I speak against movement,
against constant chaos,
And a world on giant wheels-
I grope in darkness as my goodness reels
All of us living through a swarm of holistic lies -
The lust for truth in me all smashed, crunched and disabled
Thrown to the dogs, lost to the pigs in the pig sties
The visage of friction grows in affliction,
And on the stems there grow naked flowers
While maddening fools dangle down my brow-
The vivid witch is enchanting as the world is slanting,
And virtue is just a victim of the dead
Just a victim of all
that is thought,
sought and said...
