UNICORNS IN THE SLAUGHTER HOUSE



so
self absorbed
are
the
unicorns in the slaughter house

appearing like a vision
six
feet
above
the killing floor 

that it doesnt break their hearts
to see the city

~

and that they dont know
means i dont know
if they should know

in
case

ignorant unicorns

dream floating
on rainbow gas

is
as
close
to
free
as
we
can
get 

~

and i am medicated and filed
and my file is tagged

- generic western
- a privileged kind of poor
- artistically marginal
- class z economic unit
- possible self help fodder
- possible drug seeking behaviour

when everyone 
going to the drs
is guilty of
drug seeking behaviour

its the western way
if
the mind is a busted tool box
filled
with
busted tools

so its scrips or the street
whatever it takes
to be a unicorn 

with a golden mane
and a tail of stars
preening
above 
the
abattoir
souls
