w o r   t  h
                  then

what do you want to be
rich

right

what do you want to be
hap  
py


what do you want to be
                                                                        drunk
what do you want to be
                                                                                koh
what do you i want to be
                                    mo’

mo’ better
with each letter
each phrase   every day


henry’s finger disappeared          his hand  his leg  then his ear
i left him face up on the floor back there   in the darkness the hardest  it’s the weakness in the weakest  it stares out the window           beneath us shouldn’t treat     like we’re worth trust    time alone is the worst          such
rust
dust
             and
lust

i begin to suspect that the sneezes are lies
just a little part of an elaborate disguise praised to proof   void of truth unknown to all but here now ruined counting on the wrong conclusion hidden   halted                 heretic  hues   just hoping hoping  it’d be some use   no longer merely   subterfuge  black the mountain with all the clues  creeley climb  make your  move after all this is the thing to  do
in the midst of bibles    big money 
     wonderous craft

                      forgot by all those    walking                fast
