Nightmare Song
#1
Ronny got cancer of the asshole
and had to have it removed.
The space-time situation
when he sat
afterwards, alienated him
from this world
 
of beer and women (
and the tough-guy sports.
Like W.B. Yeats with a toothache
Ron spiralled into control
of his verse.
, their bodies)
 
: and after coming back from the war
he laughed in the faces of heroes;
suffering is long, and time is fleeting
he said,
as he stood up one final time
and pissed on the graves of the Unknown Soldier.
