The Web Poetry Corner - Doug Larson - Fear and Plastic

Fear and Plastic

by

Doug Larson

you breathe
plastic rainbows
and artificial hearts that pump
machine oil blood
like mud
crackled hexagons reaching for the horizon
baking in the raw heat
of exothermic bliss
the sterile catalyst
of a Lexan kiss
a slippery polymer blowjob
and the empty compression of a feather pillow bright
in greasy morning light
emptiness in Tupperware
tightly sealed
emotional Teflon
and you know it fucking hurts
but even the bandaids are plastic
and can only breathe
through tiny holes
