Sewage Breath’s Birthday Wish, from THE WOMAN WHO COULD EAT WOOD

Sewage Breath’s Birthday Wish


On his 21st birthday,
Sewage Breath made a wish.
And to his great shock it came true in the depths of the sewers that smelt like  and piss and fish.
In there he bumped into an abandoned Sewage Woman named Trish. 

In love they fell. They really did. 
Enjoyed each other’s ugly, worrying, strong

Sewage Breath, from THE WOMAN WHO COULD EAT WOOD

Sewage Breath 


He doesn’t see his family and is barred from all jobs
that have strict high personal hygiene rules.
It was his fault. His shocking sewage breath makes people vomit pools.

That, of course, made him intensely 
angry and too sad.
Every day he felt for having sewage breath, for making people sick, extremely bad.

There was nothing he

Premium MemberHow Do You Feel

As a can trash full
      I am all mixed up.
As flushed raw sewage
      I am all mixed up.
As grit and concrete
      I am all mixed up.
As boiled bouillabaisse
      I am all mixed up.
As fall forest

•	CHILDREN OF THE SEWAGE-

First I no more I drink not of the toilet water;
I save the sewage for the benign sister and brother;
Children of default blessed not yet salvageable;
They too will be saved;
Students of the sewage clean yourself up;
Lakes and streams floating plastic Dixie Cups™:
One waters of Lazarus arise out of your stench;
You’re dead no

Heart Sewage - Harmatophile

(Heart sewage)

HARMATOPHILE

If I could I would

Turn off this love faucet

It has begun to back up again.

Flooded the basement

Filled with mud

Devotion, emotion and dust.

All this broken plumbing

A chemical eroding trust

Our constant numbing in procrastination

A cracking foundation

A sump pump drains

The rain is coming

She is my wicked something

A crystalline motivation

Sewage clog inside shame

Stuck in self-deceit

Eighty proof liquid snake

A

Smoke Detector of Sewage

Sewage of a signature smell
coming for the Smoke detector
by the intake of a cooling and heating

how clever, how sick
you will never be
voted the best of operations
to repair maintains

itchy, itchy, smell like rotten hell
but will sum (some)one go to jail...
not in the this pound (town)
not in this life bind (time)
time...

A Walk At the Sewage

A yearning young man
Courting, court but be told
Remember, and very so, the schedule
Take a walk at the sewage
Breathe the freshness of the sewage
Watch the lover birds date 
Pecking and giggling
Chirping and flipping
And nimbyists blushing 
When the breeze eases
Then your return ticket
Has all wisdom

At home there’s too much good
Token and spoken 
Waiting to learn
Assess and access
The
