3 Poems

By Little Tank

clown’s personality with real prison tears

the come up will be vengeful
the revolution will be thru television
clown’s personality with real prison tears
I can’t change what humiliates you
I can’t change what humiliates myself
triggered by newscasts
and word of some other motherfuckers success
more than for pussy
less than an activist

out of the gutter and into the stars

the orwellian face stomping boot was blown off and what’s left of the face was preserved
life sustained
the years you thought you wasted gambling for an art career actually panned out
turns out God is real
with a knife in your stomach in the gutter
then stopped the bleeding and sent you to the hospital
because the improbable, the impossible is possible
out of the gutter and into the stars

Off Drugs 3

I have more fun off drugs
with my guardian angel, glittering and golden skinned
in a red robe
showing me his overhead press
before I show him mine
an angel
bench pressing me
strong and sober
sober and unafraid
