a pause for humor. you communists.
by Rachelle Howeyou are a mannequin.
your eyes drone inward and skyward,
the holes drilled into sockets, impurity.
i have been thrust in you.
i have been muted again.
you walk me, a dog.
i bite your ankles, you yelp.
(life has a funny irony when it's
kicking you in the ass.) 09/26/2003 Author's Note: *DIES LAUGHING* WHAT THE FUCK!? this started as a topic challenge by Krista Brock and ended up being very much not anything.
