Paul Corman-Roberts - May 2007

 

A.M. FEVER

The gorgeous, witty and young
          prepster progeny of
          Hollywood Elite

From the most senior scriptwriter
To the lowest stoop prop-master

Kidnap the prodigal children from
          a long scheduled family reunion
          me and the transgendered
cousin I haven’t seen in years

imprisoned in a black
          lodge light opera with
a touch of the clueless
          paradigm whose theme is
all of our political and personal insecurity

& they’re mean & they
          mean us
          know harm we know

The effects are wonderful
          we laughed, almost died
almost laid & wondered why
they don’t make themselves known
more often in the everyday
          better world

naturally passed on copyrights
          in our name delivered
safely to the front yard
          where they/we were
         the hole
         time

But the script was buried amongst a dump truck load of rejected submissions
& when we finally found it

          it was still their names
          we didn’t know there

Paul Corman-Roberts is Tony DuShane’s #5 (and easiest) bitch but he does manage to hold his own over at www.paulcormanroberts.com. Feel free to check out his new book from Howling Dog Press, "Coming WorldGone World: The Abomunauts Are Coming To Piss On Your Lawn".
