Manifesto of ordinary madness

Lorenz

Life is but the decomposed 

of an old core thrown to the wind 

and death a tale for grown-ups 

told by politically children 

according to the selection grid criteria.

Haikus born in a black hole 

that evolution has shapped into a brain

reveal only a failed funambulist

who thinks he's a poet 

as others dream of having a dog ...

Wingless birds watch the clouds pass by

believing they see the face of god ,

  Faith is nothing but a farce...

 Friend ! Boards drunken vessel ,

throws dirty ink into the saliva of urban flies,

releases a pestilence in the name of the transgressive !

 Blessed you sermon on the mountain of madness !

Dark ethyl desire that palpates , 

 palatine princess 

the subjective object ...

 The cheesy one that ignites the missionary 

in the middle of the moon ,

makes Bukowsky happy !

        You're Welcome

      • Ellen Marsell

        A toxic cocktail of allusions and irony. A brilliant piece in the aesthetic of absurd noir.

        • Lorenz

          I don't know if absurdity has a color ? Perhaps that one of nothingness...
