A Caricature

she was incandesed with rage
                                      
and began calling us out our names

                                                  BUTTON-DOWN POOT
                       
   EXOPHTHALMIC RAG-PIMP

                                             SPLINDED-LIMBED LOOSER


LUMPEN-YUPPIE

                             SCRAWNY-PICKLED MONKEY MEN
                                                                                      
so we had to butt in
little does one know when there drunk 
that they hurt innocent people

                                             this was her commitment everyday
                                               to textural atonalism and chromatic adventure

the price we endure by the ones we love
ignorance instilled
patience out the door
