Existential Fragments in Pandora’s Box

by badmalthus

I saw this young boy
in faded blue jeans
offering to suck cock
for ten bucks
or
a burger & fries
&
a large coke

&
there’s this spiffy prick
in a broad-brimmed hat
counting young pussies
&
shots of heroin
on his calculator

while in the church
God lights candles
made from third-world
cunt-oil
&
a couple of nuns
take turns
blowing JC’s brains out
on
the altar of truth

I once opened pandora's box and ended up with a dose of the pox...so I closed it again, shut my eyes tightly and prayed for forgiveness for my sins. I now hang out with three wise monkeys in a suburban bubble surrounded by the assurances of god fearing good citizens. I feel so much happier here... sweeping the flaws is good... buying is cheaper than a lobotomy... consuming is easier than caring...
Nice one mate... no boundaries to this one! Spence

that was an extremely powerful statement Harry. one bone i would like to pick with those nuns is how they have recieved the 'secret codes' to enter heaven yet they keep all the 'good news' to themselves as the scurry like shadows from monestry to monestry.

This is what I call smashing someone in the face with the rock of reality. Its not what people want to hear but it must be said. Im glad there are people here who have the guts to say how it is. Poetry, just like life, cant always be love and sunshine.

This is awesome. well done

Geez, Harry - I almost missed the party...
Vivid and gritty, like the rugged state of things at large, personified.
No, I don't have a single thing to say about ... oil.

And the jigsaw fits together perfectly Harry. All the pices harbour sin...but of its not sin if the indoctrination is complete to the believer of anything is it.

I read it and it was dark. Then I read it and the cunt oil had pride of place in the sanctuary, in honor of the Magdelene, who had it all over Pandora with being possessed by seven demons. Then I read and envisioned those nuns sucking Christ off, then literally blowing his brains out with a gun causing a resurrection after resurrection--then I saw them figuratively blowing his brains out like a great trip with their hope. I like nasty raunchy pieces this piece makes me squeeze my legs together tight to prolong the sensation or in modesty. Great Great Great. kb
