a top blurring the narrative into dizzy lines
defines our current government
bottled and sold with snake oil
and a pack of player’s light king size please
not now I have a headache sensationalized
lies on whim leads to tragic midway accident
spun of the friction of the lead
dictionary spins on, clanking and groaning,
as if the spinning earth itself would split
but plausible – so true –
leaves me with nothing, no ideas
the emptied bottle of gin
French-kiss bureaucrats
the spic and spac of sanitized sense
frictionless meaning leading to policed fictions
jumping through hopes
fictionalized misleading spin
makes the drains run backwards in Alaska
the dryer leave all the clothes still soaked
the wheel of fortune telling in Harperland
same old same old boy games
I am dizzied to the point of incompetence
it all comes out at the laundromat
