Bjork’s swan an urban
red carpet legend. Today
beauty takes no risks.
Dreams of Oscars like
sugarplums dance in their heads.
Hollywood’s Christmas.
TV morphs into
loser land infomercials
for acne weight loss
We watch bad TV
eat microwave popcorn feel
guilty not really.
What of those born on
the 29th, their birthday
once every four years?
Bright lipstick fools them
into thinking I’m well. No
“How do you feel?”
After the illness
taste dulls on the tongue, food just
fuel to run this husk.
Want like a burr that
catches your attention for
something you don’t need.
“Can’t I vote for a
Democrat?” Republican
guy asked. “Mine all suck.”
I go into the
booth knowing the past, making
the future my choice.
