" The Totally Natural "

by Mom & Mom-

for Rebecca, Russ

& Eric...

Performed on YouTube
as, " Becoming Funny
and Weird and Sloppy "

Becoming funny and weird and sloppy
when thrown for a loop
by mishandled duties
in narrow green rooms
of the totally natural
emptied out
as paradigms
of unhappiness
like fried ants
in disparate
fairy tales
as fractured
characters
in mismatched
casts
With the rhetorical tic
of vulgar kitsch
dismissed
with the fragility
of unscientific rigor
while leaping over limits
like a prestigious mistress
and pre-eminent critic
of pictorial brilliance
in multiple disciplines
of gambler, swindler
and alchemist
With spotty knowledge
prompted by the top-
most gossip
of an inexorable
prosecutor
in two parts
as an unorthodox
memoir
In spicy cuisine
sweetie
" Gosh Almighty! "
freely embracing
then running away
after a break up
with a jack-of-all-trades
then leaving the stage
along a fertile plain
of strap-shaped
stream beds
within the broad range
of late middle age
Assuming a deep groove
of allocution
dramatically patterned
in red and black
reduced to powder
when mixed
with pungent flowers
of musk mallow
And hiding out
in the otherwise
gaudy good times
as indecipherable
uninspired writings
like a riot
of inedible wild
loosestrife
Then all is right
in story lines
like fireweed
in showy spikes
replete
with sweet
buckeye...
