Hose Noser Poseur And Other Tales From Mourning Papers
Recalcitrant domination of my psyche Reinforced as a daily ritual On news of the latest outrage Committed by our hose noser poseur With cowboy attitude covering feigned imbecility And contrived twang belying his source As another blue blood hound from Connecticut With elitist tendencies and fascist thought train On the fast track to destruction Has brought me to this pointlessness in time The daily regurgitation of trust And diminished return on love of country Continues to pummel my brain storm With hose noser poseur visions In various states of tortured outcome Beaten by Misses Sip and whipped to death By renegade straws from Minnie’s soda Screaming to all who can hear “where has Ore gone” Filling me up at the overpriced pump of corporate greed With unbounded glee and imagined tunes of joy But truth be told for once The concrete reality statue of honesty Leaves little room for satisfaction guaranteed As the hose noser poseur closes in on immortality Tied too tightly to oblivious immorality Resulting from death below and fire above As the masses pray for relief workers From the Lone Gunman Union To take up reading the classics once more By light of book depository windows And Mother Mary spins in her grave As screams arise from the twin sarcophagi Of Monticello and Mount Vernon While the hose noser poseur picks at nostril Releasing boogers of the CO2 army Armed with hydrocarbon particulars Written in the ancient tongues of bad science And fear mongering rose colored glass trepidation While the second in command hunkered down in the crypt of power Repudiates his own existence and involvement
