Written On A Napkin In A Dive Bar While Blacked Out by Rob Plath

birth is
a sadistic
mechanic
who built
pissing-shitting
lying-raping
killing-dying
skin machines
& sent them out
to do 360's
over & over
ripping up
the beautiful
inanimate
wilderness
of heaven
w/their vicious
animate
fleshy wheels

  2. Here, Mr. Plath, you nail three of my favorite themes in your poetry: that sadistic fuck, birth, horizontal man reclining and trashing the twin. Hell, you even passed out on top of it's corpse!! Outstanding work, my friend - mindblowingly excellent!!
