A Clown (after John Wayne Gacy)
A lost grief flashes in the west
and barks like a dog’s vile fever.
He decays while
what’s left underneath the sink
bubbles his bug’s cat,
asking,
—Why won’t you toe the line?
But soon the tasteless faith in himself
opens a jam jar that sits in the lap
of a beautiful boy
turned into an altar.
