Green Chillies

Eating green chillies with breakfast
Stained chest from a necklace
My grandmother made
Her consciousness stayed in my memory
Wasn't quite the centenary
I collect life like a mental documentary
My newest perspective is plenty
Life has so many dimensions
I spent too many years inspecting;
Dissecting
Insurrection's expecting

Pontificating the paranoid on paraffin
I haven't been to reality in a while
I haven't been to reality in a long

Plant my moon boots by the shoes
I tip toe through rooms
I always push down on the bruise
I contain multitudes

Just suppose i can't be detected
I steam the cream shirts and the napkins
Still silent and unaffected
I'm doing some of my best work here

No creases or folds
I flatten out my brain with scalds
You should use fabric softener if i'm to be so bold

I worry that the pain just grows
I worry when I outgrow my clothes
Am I writing songs or am I writing prose?
Who knows?
Just suppose

But i'm not sure what's right
An illness infers that there's something wrong
And i'm not sure what's right

An illness infers that there's something wrong
But i'm not sure what's right
An illness infers that there's something wrong
But i'm not sure what's right
An illness infers that there's something wrong
But i'm not sure what's right
An illness infers that there's something wrong
But I'm-
