complicitationing
(wantonly ravishing our tail)

we’re all just themmms
each one look’n all around trying to
hollering more louder than the others
‘cause all we’re all ever wanting
is just to be feeling
just like us here being seen 

but this aint no time for saying “Sorry!”
like it’s some kinda childish overlook’n
or the fable-ing dawning
of a painful reborning again . . . !NO!
it’s that rabidly impoverishing refusal
to be owning this one in our mirror
a thickening darkening of darkening
and the ever swelling oozing of hiding
a shrouding immers-e-nationing
in the desperate surging
and addicting mesmerizing
of our long callousive invisibilize-ing
. . . in them ships how us brung
and that rock where us scrummed
the lady in the harbor telling all to come
so wallowing in a drunken celebrationing
of sucking one another rapidly on down
in the numbing and emptying coffle-ing
of this ever entangling themmming

. . . we’re all just themmms
each one look’n all around trying to
hollering more louder than the others
‘cause all we’re all ever wanting
is just to be feeling
just like us here being seen
