I wrote this for my Stupid English Teacher

How Practicality Killed that Spanish Dog/ I do what I’m Told/ A sin

There aren’t no Glamour and Stars to being a Mule

Gorging oneself, a Glutton of cellophane cooked shut

Several baggies of queer tasting white powders brilliantly Bitter to the Taste

A Meximelt Cocktail of Rhohipnol, GHB, and Black Tar Heroin

I take a Hard drag on my Cigarette. One more Girlfriend and you’re home,

Scott free in another-Land, Someone else’s place, Someone else’s Dog

Human Trafficking they call us, a semi-Truck ethos of likeminded Organs convalesce in the back

We Shuffle into the sweltering trailer, One woman moves a rupture up her Spine

Her heart starts Attacking her in tridents of the Lore of Drugs; she’s already a dead Dog

Road kill twitches, Clouded Oracles All

Border Checkpoints are a Fiction; Sympathies of the kind that often get people Dead

And the undertow of the Girth of drugs, we’re silent, no noises only hundreds of breaths

Tempera terra cotta roof tiles accompany our journey, indifferent cargo, how I envy you

Then the Rouge breaks through, we blush to the flashlights cold stares, unblinking

He runs, gets shot, we stay, we live, Sucked Dosed, burgeoning Semi-Coat, and a Little bit comes bleeding through
