VENI, PRODIGIOSE



Hear me, abnormal one
come out of hiding:
they should be hiding
from you
the world should be watching its back

creep out a little and
stretch
industrial parts and pieces
and slabs of debris  
(I'll put my back into it)
can be cleared away
to give you space

what it feels like now to be a person
I know: a mere symptom

a presentation
a point of blood
in a great splotchy patch
of pulsing psoriatic red

a flesh cloud
a puzzle whose guts are exposed

not that you need interpretations from me:
you're the one living on the edge

be a demon: rock, barf, kill

or sit still
and be a total expert:
open your school

or whatever the hell:
you can do it completely
without a plan

hail to thee abnormal one

you're free!
