E Is For Estranged |
| Boys run like water from the barrel to the trough |
| They’ll never stop their running |
| Gunning for their brothers |
| This house is a hostel |
| It is peaceful, but it’s always emptying |
| Boys all want to be someone |
| Haven’t you heard? |
| I am a flightless bird |
| I am a liar, feeding facts to a false fire |
| If pathos is borne, borne out of bullshit |
| In formal attire, I’ll score you a string ensemble |
| I saw my son at seventeen |
| The shutters made projections on his naked frame |
| And now at twenty-five |
| He simply cannot stay away from the ketamine |
| With makeup on his sores |
| He spends an hour a day composing little eulogies |
| Sometimes he sends me letters |
| But they’re mostly garbled phrases and apologies |
| But haven’t you heard? |
| I am a flightless bird |
| I am a liar, feeding facts to a false fire |
| If pathos is borne, borne out of bullshit |
| In formal attire, cue the Bulgarian men’s choir |
