satirically-yours:

rural-juror:

There is a whore in my apartment building.
Her room smells like dirty sex.

There is a man next door who reads the comics.
His idea of a hero is a handjob and a beer.

There is a dog in that man’s room.
His name is Asshole and he smells like piss.
There is also a woman in that man’s room.
She cleans and gets fucked.

Across the courtyard a couple lives.
He’s an actor. She’s an actress.
They can’t find work so they steal from the market.
They’re breaking the law.
I smoked a reefer with them.
They didn’t know shit about fuck.
I like them. I used to be like that.

A manuscript lies on a naked mattress that lies in the corner of my two room apartment.
It has a coffee stain on it.
The publishers and editors have fucked it to hell.

A six string guitar rests against a chair in my room.
It has only three strings.

I am strung out on dope.

Next door to me a young man is writing pamphlets.
They are anti-Semitic.
BUT FOR CHRIST’S SAKE THAT MAN IS A JEW!

A guy lies on a flat surface smoking a cigarette.
I lie dead in my bathtub.

    Michael Showalter really needs to write more poetry. Or a sequel to Wet Hot American Summer. Whichever.
