poem: bubba-lithe

Moammar in his sleek silver travolta
disco ultra sheen,

acquiescent fetch-bubba of the lithe

ruling class:

ring your bells, child

this ain't your mama's

ruling elite, it festers

the gruel right out

from under your feet:

it ain't like you didn't see it

comin'. Give Imelda a call,

see can she give you

some red rubies

get you on home to your

disco Kansas:

this will be the grill

you never wished exposed:

them derricks ain't exactly

toys, boy-toy-grabbin'

artifacts of world-gone-by

hubbalub the rightwing

authenticity of prurient labor,

nab the last bit o'honey

for the sugar-foxes

at the bank - swiss-fried

in all likelihood -

i'd say the quick exit

makes best for keepin

the sheen on your shine,

boogie with respect to the average

fare, it's an inquisition on which

you just might

want to pass: smokey seconds,

stevie's uptight, and you,

bloody amigo, best be

on

yo

way.
