Radiography Redux

It began with plagiarism & parroting
Springing obscure quotes
On the simplest of people
Then came the dancing horses

Your Father
Wants you to die
Before he does
Because perfection
Is a joke
& all who strive for it
Are jokers

Not wild
Just christened
In turpentine
& mortar
Trying to survive
Their own demise

Enjoy your friends
Miss them

An old one
Pulled his brush
Out of a jar of Testers paint
& through a vapor
Of modeling glue
Told you
Pragmatism
Always
Beats
Principles

That is just the way it is

In exile
An artist of words
Is scripting
This dour comedy
& accepting gratitude

wittgenstein
just wastes my time
but that's not true with you
you showed me mister hyde's
blushing bride
on rue morgue avenue
