"And Die" Poem by Michael Walkerjohn

"And Die"



I
do so
propose
a high degree
of difficulty be laid
at the feet of the totality
of humanity. What say you
Hannity? Trump? Pence? Anyone?
Katz or ratz or batz got your tongues?
Phuuck! Phuucking idiots! Nothing in your
heartless lacking soul mud husks anyways!
Let me call out some ‘familiar others' names!
Hey… "Morning Star"… What is the Haps?
Still cannot find your halo? Lost it that
first daze ousted? Dude! That was a
forever ago! Hows it going Brother?
What's it like herding a crowd of the
donkey/monkey/asp thingys? Hanging?
Yea… I sense you are a bit more than tense!
In Tents? Franken-sens? That's a new strain!
How is that new strain designed? At the molecular
levels? Designer weed-n-things? Designer-seeds-n-things
Designer DNA-n-things… Any of you ‘designed husks'
out there thinking about designed things when
you are thinking about this designed covid
kinda, sorta, maybe… thingy? No? to
much strange and scary to think
about as you breathe and drink
and eat and piss and shite
and die?

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
"Now, gather 'round while I elucidate
On what happens outside when it gets late
'Long about midnight the ghosts and banshees
Get together for their nightly jamborees
There's ghosts with horns and saucer eyes
And some with fangs about this size
Some short and fat, some tall and thin
And some don't even bother to wear their skin
I'm tellin' you brother, it's a frightful sight
To see what goes on in the night..."
