Four Steps Forward


By Svipal Grimnir


First things 1st

 

Feeling hunger now.

Flee!  Flee!  Flee from great big teeth!

Hungry again now.

 

Number 2

 

I bought a gun for

those goddamn motherfuckers

shitting in my yard.

 

3 strikes

 

Making maps to help

me find my way home at last-

Oops--Stepped on my map!

 

Gone Fourth

 

Satisfaction of

desire created the mask

I wear on the street.
