I feed my baby napalm
From the loincloth I
wore
When I tried to get
out;
I mix blood let from my
eyes
With virgin gasoline,
clear,
Clear as glacial ice,
And as fearsome as its
steam,
With two grimy hands
for their
Clotting vat, and for
me
To siphon later.
He'll be a strong
one.
He'll leave The Titan
Hell.
When it swallowed me up
Hind-side first I swore
That I would never
Come out of anything
The way that I went in,
That I would blow a
Gaping hole in nature,
And take myself as
sustenance.
Mommy fed me veggies,
And Daddy fed me beef;
They were making me
into
A Big Boy, they'd
say,
A Man before the world,
And surely too much
longer!
I ate it up, like I
loved it.
But who wants to be a
man,
Weak, virtuous –
duplicitous?
Every man wants to be a
bomb.
That's why I feed my
baby napalm.
Ouraboros has no
business
With the nut of my
fruits, the core
Of the man, shed from
the Man,
Who has nothing but
Decades of
Rosaries and a
valueless recreation
To tread his
unaccountably
Over-ripened dreams.
That Pathetic Serpent
will leak
The contents of its
shameless stream
From Tract Zero of its
originally
Perfect form, left to
wither
By the sides of those
alike the
Passive, the mild, and
the firm.
My baby may be killed,
But so shall his
oppressor.
