Yellowstone: for Shelley.
Some fireworks that’ll be
Some show it’ll be, Shelley
Would appreciate, ashes and sparks
And out of the skies
Will drop the birds, including sky larks,
more than a billion will expire, some in the first
kilometre
of Yellowstone park
will be turned into museum
exhibits for future generations,
look mammy
that guy was eating a hamburger,
part of the Atkins’ diet says a know it all,
and look mammy
that person was doing the two-backed devil with
someone else,
come on, where have you been, that’s
what they used to do to propagate, and for another
thousand kilometres the others will be part of a future
BBC documentary on that thing called mankind,
some fireworks that’ll be
some show it’ll be Shelley
the world would be kept in the dark
a wintry one, like the inside of a meat wholesaler’s
refrigerator, frozen and tarred with grey black
ashes, some would say why it was god’s handiwork,
that we got to know how it would be
to be like
a Kentucky fried chicken
except those who said that are long gone, gone are the
ancient cities of Jerusalem and Mecca, and the holiest
of all vanities, and the greatest thing that never did
burn was
fill in the blanks
some fireworks that’ll be
some show it’ll be Shelley
for all the rockets that are sent up
to discover inclement planets
and to wow the viewers
and pull the wool over their eyes
creative accounting with neo-cold war hardware
and pretty pictures of far flung moons with purple
skies, and shit all life,
meanwhile back on the ranch,
while the president has gone out to lunch,
pop goes the weasel- brooom, boom, bang,
five kilometres towers
a solid red-orange phallus
of pent up frustration, of not getting any,
of not getting any of the action, and earth
explodes, a 640,000 year orgasm
enough to sate a pyromaniac
like our dear old Percy
whoooosh Shelley.
some fireworks that’ll be
some show it’ll be Shelley
