Hitler Dick
Somebody’s beating the hell out of
the soda machine
because it took their money
and then didn’t give them a soda back
That’s the civilized agreement we have with these things
money goes in the machine
and the soda come out
but that didn’t happen this time
it almost never happens that way anymore
that machine’s all fucked up
it takes the money and keeps the soda
that’s how machines work now in the Trumpverse
there’s no compassion, vegan decency, or common sense
civility’s been Shake N Baked and the die hards are voting for death
while the rest of us stand around gasping in dirty pajamas and horror
(if you were wondering about why the machine….)
that’s why somebody’s beating the hell out of it
These things can’t be allowed to continue in such manners
Roy Moore is standing at the plate, freeballing America
fuck you, baseball season
That machine has got to go
You put your money in and
Hell comes out
but no soda
and no money
all that beating and nothing, no change
Everyone’s crazy
Everyone’s misquoting Arnold Schwarzenegger in Total Recall
and forgetting about Emilio Estevez
Everyone’s dying behind porch light
and fucking beneath iphone blankets
Everyone’s gloating or shamed
and that goddamn machine keeps taking all the money
giving back empty space where the promise of actual soda’s
supposed to be
I get thirsty, just thinking about it
Sometimes everything you have is just 75 cents
and when you invest everything you’ve got into something
and that something tells you to fuck off
using the language of silence and empty space
or the actual words
it’s easy to go nuts
such things accelerate the plunge
That was everything I’ve got!
you scream at the machine
Give me something back!
While the machine just stands there with its soul castrated
says nothing
everything is religiously followed and meaningless
everything is nothing
and because it’s all nothing
the machine’s decided
you don’t need that soda
or companionship
or love
that stuff is for people who think like the machine tells them to think
you don’t think like the machine thinks
ergo: you don’t deserve that shit
Fuck you and your 75 cents worth of everything
You never properly earned that 75 cents in the first place
so I’ve taken it back
and you’re not getting your soda
because the soda doesn’t want you anymore
so go off and go cry/weep for a long time about that
I’d maybe offer you water
but I don’t have any water on me
and the water that I have got
I wouldn’t give it to you anyway
so that would just be mean of me
the machine says
to offer you something I’ve never intended to give you
but screw it, you look so sad
Would you like some water?
Yes please, we all whisper to the machine at different times
guts cried out and pissed upon
protesting between old shoe boxes
sweating out hard rage and madness and fumes
Sorry, I don’t have any water
the machine reports back
no water for you
All the water these days has been set aside
for rich real estate assholes with bad credit and
grown men who’ve been banned from the mall
in a reality like this, everything just goes spinning
Titanic is the Karate Kid of floating boat movies
Float on
Float off
So long, Jack
Their lives together put a down payment
on a shower curtain
and when they divorced
two bathroom floors
took turns
being wet
while whoever was beating that soda machine
kept beating
because they’d just put everything they’d had in it
and nothing came out
they kept beating
bang
ker crunch pop
powpowpowpow
and I sat there in a room just down the hall, screaming
Get that motherfucker
Hating everything is not a sustainable life style!
It’s their turn now
(I’m so fucking lonely)
Take em’ down!
Crotch punch it in the swastika
Hitler’s dick won’t win tonight!
(I want my Diet Coke!)
Get em!
