Fun with Negativity

When aliens take away all the seniors in a town,
There is controversy and a mass funeral.

(all of this
a mediocre movie that finds its way
here,
and i thought it
so full of quirk and arrow. how else to explain
wishful riddance to a child? “grandpa is in outer-space,
break-dancing and physically enjoying grandma.”
what a blast will the vicars sound off that!)

The things I would give to look my old face in the eye,
And not quake when I hear her voices. Same damn strings bowed
On a badly tuned violin; peut-etre some emotion,
Some smiley face scrawled in the snow.

(aliens wrote those,
then wrote this.
how else to explain myself
to myself one day like now? introduce
quark and double. “the only thing worth investigating during
their time on earth, were awful poetry and sphincters.”
what a clever twiddle-dee twerp he is,
the one who discovered IBS and repetition!)
