VI. Song (for Megan) (first posted 12-31-12)

We basted our necks in K-Y
And stuck heads, faces, hands, hair, tongues
Into the void        Odorless

And said, what a stupid stupid sight
What a stupid stupid thing to do tonight.

We laughed and hoped to laugh again
And waited to laugh again in vain
And waited for the end to come

And all we got was stupidity.

And we ate rose petals,
Shoved them down our maws,
Stuffed them down with a wooden spoon,
Until our pee smelled like a summer afternoon.

What a stupid thing to do.
