i've got to get right with this

smoke

gin and tonic

fatness you mean

bigger roll of skin

those pretty people rolling windows down to let the sunlight in

cool butter between shoulder blades

and the slide is long

down the spine to the place where the spine rises up and i say

one

seven one eight

seven six eight

double oh double four

friction

burns the butter back to milk

running on fumes

i got to get right with this

can you feel the weight pull down

jelly breakfast big belly gonna' belly is two bellies and what is the sound

of two bellies slapping

flapping

and the legs lock at the knees

together like parenthesis

fighting to the death

can you feel the weight?
