poems should be ugly as trees
and grief, these are my treason and
should cum in the face of my
enemies. they should stink
like cadaver’s nightmare,
which is life, or like the soiled
panties of christ unlaundered
from some shitty cross.
they should stink so good
even worms condescend to fuck
in them, poems tend to be
too sterile and clean for the
fertile whore’s abortion that is
life, a worm is too proud to fuck
in them, the hairy worm who shall turn
his path through the sweet tender
rotting meat, flesh god spat out in
his whorish cuspidor, the coffin
we put the dead and their devils
in to marinade in their sins. the worms
remember us as sinful and feckless
children.
a poem should stink of piss and shit
and the egoism it is, it should smoke
and drink and sin, it should sodomize night,
like we do when we are alive
- David McLean
