I (a youthsome, wholesome, jokesome, handsome,...
gamesome, chucklesome, bothersome,
and awesome modest fellow)...
does not deliberately court immortalization,
and wonders what criteria confer elevation,

“The God Complex”



His face imprinted 
hidden under layers of ink
he whispers his words

like a haunting breeze

competitively so,
reacclimating tastes toward richer anticipations.

We have all heard of social capital
and natural capital,

Ah... methinks I could sleep forever

Basking in a supine position
with eyes wide shut
while the space heater churns out
fast moving molecules of heat
solitudinarian drowsy thinker fêted
by miniature fantasy 
of tropical island paradise
accompanying and populating slumber
courtesy flickering,...

Eagerly awaiting until many tomorrows...

to become affianced to the grim reaper,
