This house is too neat
I learnt more about myself
When I lived in hovels
Surrounded by demons and cannibals
There was a place I had or was lent to live in
A place as strange as Hieronymus Bosch
I had to crawl over a thousand years
Of crap to sleep on my pissed on mattress
The kitchen darker than any hell
The shower a disintegration of man’s inhumanity to man
The garden a jungle , forest thick with the refuse of wealth
Left abandoned as sculptures to Westinghouse
The humans if that’s what they were I never saw
They were the ghosts of sorrow and laughter was more a nervous mistake than real
Once we were lions , now we are just shadows of temples we were meant to be
Later I would find a new home with Anita and her pussy
Being an animal lover how could I resist
