Those little mangoes-- ripe and stupid
yellow monsters
sweet rotting meat
attracting the flies.
Those yellow
yellow
yellow
color of madness
heat
summer
and decay
unbelivable
strings--voilin
drifts in the air
dumb taiwanese pugilistic films
stupid
stupid
stupid
stupid
crap
crap
crap
crap
crap
crap
humpty dumpty
fall down and crack
die you ugly egg
no body will put you back together
all your yolk spilt and dried up
sizzling up in the sun
yellow
yellow
yellow
birds--crows
picking up the broken shell pieces
dead dead humpty dumpty
face smashed
into a million pieces
eyes plucked by crows
humpty dumpty leaning back
laughing at the crows trying to pick mangoes from trees
laughing laughing
leaning
back
a little
leaning more
crows watching expectantly
suddenly the earth spins just that little
humpty dumpty feels gravity's pull
the wall shifted beneath his ugly pants
air all around
the stout little arms flailing
a sound of sputtering and cracking
his insides are all out
the mangoes on the floor
yellow
the crows feed.
