Melting Man

tasty man for the hindsight
of all he had to do
like wax melting on a frying pan
special sauce
special sauce
the aliens buy it for spoons
tasty delicious
transformation reverses
androgyny
androgyny
leak in the mainstream

under the sun
the crayon with arms
sticking to the cement no wrapper to burn
dont you see yourself sweat upon the floor,
around the circle
around the circle
for plastic sidewalks
for years
melted crayons
melted crayons on the sidewalk
that dont wash off
but mother nature always cleans your messes
and makes you put everything back to normal

usually, but this isn't normal
