there are times when i turn into a dirty hippie
with rotted shoes
spine like a longbow
scraggly hair and beard
i would just walk in the woods and feel the critters scatter away
then they’d all come groveling back for my blood
and the bare-dwelling dirty hippie fuck would sit and look at the stars
losing blood
and toxic shrouds
like it was coming into style
and then I left
exuded all of the bitter heat and ferrous smoke
that my chest held in
my skull opened up, I watched the residents of allegheny county
make soup out of the mush
now i’m just a can of man
but clean nonetheless
