The Seventh Temptation

from Two Dream On by Zak M.

/

lyrics

Dirt is alive.
All the bugs
eat our fat
after we're gone.

Five years look for me
in a tree,
astride an amber escalator.
The cat will mew.

This is Yin Yang.
This is looking
in a mirror,
in a hologram sticker,

in every plastic acorn piggy bank,
where tiny pinecones jingle.
I saw hay bale straw
on a muddy County median

and beside the ornamental frogs -
a polyester watermelon flapping,
where golf cart spit
swaddles waxy wrappers.

This is bad and scary,
when wafting ammonia coughs,
when any wrinkled timebomb
can drool with impunity.

I saw the large red moon
regard the complacent can.
I saw the moonlight
absolve every tan line.
