TEQUILA CHRISTMAS
The tree is dressed in
tequila shorts
and beer
tank-top
Pissed, I slice the lemon
and wrists
all over the page
venom for the family
I have lost
due to
natural disaster
taken by a riptide
I don’t want to imagine
their deaths
salt water in the lungs…
just pour and
don’t ask again
It’s why I am here
searching for connectivity
an electro-light
for resuscitation
as I mimic their deaths
with mescale.
Salute!
