DUFUS

let me tell you

about the

trampoline

i just witnessed

somebody's

backyard

a deathtrap

imagine jumping on

that thing

jankety as hell

but still you

want

that thrill

of air bopping out of your mouth

as you enter the

nearby

stratosphere

backyard bliss

is the same thing

as

boredom

and then

you break your neck

so what?

life is about taking chances

and all that

goddamned litter

by the overpass

people just throw whatever

they want out

their car windows

trying to erase

what they want

the

embarrassment of

what they want

trying to

tell a little story

about that night they

went to wendy's

drivethru

drunk as fuck

crying

about the end of

the world

somebody

some genius

wrote

DUFUS

in red paint

on the overpass

embankment

pure red drippy

letters

and me

thinking

about how

lucky i am
