"California"
by Jeremy Sale
Burning chrome and lesbians hunt
Leather bars and sex treats
Lunchpails carved from iconoclast
Production work track meets
Silver shimmer mirage tycoons
Spraypainting blackened skin
With images of hatefulness
Cavort with naked men
Drifting seeds of raunchy leers
Attach themselves to me
While dreadful paisley mormonites
Are getting off for free
Slutty skanked out hippies
Will always burn your eyes
With caustic flashing chemicals
That cut you down to size
Shallow beatnik coffee poems
Ignite bizarre desire
And trendy tasteful limericks
Are burning in the fire
