Leaning On The Parameters of Sanity
got a letter from
Burning Woodchuck Review:
Dear Poet,
Sorry, but my Russian
Wolfhound, Dostoyevsky defecated
on all the submissions
for issue #3. I tried
to save everyone's
writing, but the smell
& smear finally got to me.
Was your poem about catching
your brother cornholing
his buddy while watching
Andy Griffith? Or was it
the one about the nuns
with the giant dildo
hid inside the hollowed crucifix?
Please, resubmit.
having never heard of any
of this, i pour my glass
half full of vodka
squeeze a lime in
& drain it
the cinnamon moon is
a slice less than full
shining through the web
in the window
where two flies
struggle
waiting for the black widow
