1.Toaster Life

some tortured response

   the bride stripped bare 

          even in Philly 

       take a look 

                                                peek through the little hole

          she's holding a lantern 

                             near the waterfall

                                        but stop coughing

                     you smoke too much 

      thirteen and a half 

                     just do it the way it is

                        (I need to get out of bed)

2. Mesmerized Bye and Bye

street sweepers singing 

         Amy Winehouse 

    "I said no, no, no."

      I think you left your 

hiking boots in the car 

        but there's nothing there now 

            they stole everything 

                   You better move it or it WILL get towed 

                                       go buy some goat cheese 

                                     and we'll have lunch

3. The Ache of Patterson N.J.

twenty two shootings already this month

"That won't stop ME from going!"

                              this after the car got towed 

      - home of the american dream

-now a shit hole 

  - National Park in the middle 

    of what

 a mess
