A Guest of the Monetarastic Life

My life is the awkward entanglement of sex,

All of its peculiar nuances

All of its soulful idiosyncrancies

It's my holy baptized christened flesh 

And saw dust in a solar breeze

Sharpened to death 

By a seemingly perennial persona


Always neutral

Always gay

Always artificial


* * *


I realized all of this in a foreign land

In a restaurant where there are 3 kinds of spoons

And endless wine

Where I dreamed

I lusted for cigarettes

I gazed into white clouds and blue mountains 

And the sharp contrast between blue and white

Where the blue mountains are penetrating the white clouds......


I thought, 

Am I afraid of this awkwardness?

Or do I wish to get drunk with the solace of my friends
