pretty useless wishes
Nicholas Alti
praise me for I am the most high
& the least holy, you said turn this seed
into a flooded mountain I heard only
nobody believes in you I heard only
from how you taste your lover
it’s clear you fear your father
for I am swine incarnate
cast me your finest pearls
essentially my life is going like a horde of pigs shitting
don’t ask me about me I don’t want to turn fecal this discourse
ask me about Asmodeus or manipulating serotonin
I’ll tell you all about demonic possession & self-destruction
what about me let’s talk about me
oh ha umm nope nothing new with me is it humid in here or what?
I’m disabled & sad & devoid of spirit
but I’m one glam sickly man have you seen my eyelashes lately
imagine how I’d look in fish scales or duct tape
even in a memory foam sarcophagus
what’s the god for being high on vanity & alienation & also pharmaceuticals
a vogue contemporary inland lake sort of spirituality
don’t listen to me I’ve been punch drunk lightning bug
white dog ghost mountain hopeless exorcist stoned gone
don’t listen to me I’m blowing myself wide open always
don’t listen to me I’m dressed in pond fish & rotting on the concrete
listen to me immediately
listen to me listen to my gaping nebulous face
seriously you should hear this convex litany
so listen close to my concave obsecration:
I have something forgettable I could tell you
I have so many useless wishes
