The Mezunian

Die Positivität ist das Opium des Volkes, aber der Spott ist das Opium der Verrückten

Ivy Sonnet

Accompanying music. Though I wrench you off your tree, ‘least I get to feel your flesh…? No, that’s not the way to treat sauce that grows right off the stem. Itch my nose with pepper smells, spread your veins all over me. I need sap mo’ than all elms —I’m the 1 who’s looking green. […]

LLAMANDO EN MI DESCREMADA ESTES ÚTEROS NO LES PONDRÁN TACONES

‘Twas lovely wandering summer evening parks. ‘Twas in Gelat’nousboulder1 where I saw trash all scattered ‘long the vomit lawn, accomp’nied by globs o’ doggie shit & feel-good posters taped on tree boughs. ¡How nice o’ nature, serving such important needs! Surely tacky clip-art betters boring orchids. ¡Phhh! Luckily I saw the man whose dog improved […]

Where You Can’t Get Me

Ha, ha, ha! I’ve gotten you funky fuckers yet! I found the loophole. & you can’t stop me. I’ve found the 1 place I’m safe, where you can’t find me– your kryptonite cavern. I may not be able to do anything wrong without being punished; I may not be able to say anything wrong without […]

Ode to Photos o’ Red Oaks on Google Images

No genre goes unnoticed in this list: From photos blurred in backdrops flush with filters To paintings brushed just like impressionists (Though some I note from other sites are pilfered). Although I find your watermark distracts From screaming natural unnat’ral glows, ‘Least you adjusted all their hues & blacks ‘Way from their boring, ordinary tones. […]

Failed to Pass My Introspection

Hey. I saw what you’re trying to do-- & I can tell you right now, it won’t work. You’re trying to sneak into a li’l niche through you infirmities, ¿Sí? You thought you could ‘scape. You were wrong. We found you out like a trout, flopping flippantly like febrile phalluses, spraying your jizz all o’er […]
