Birthday Tea Party


Celebrate old people
That see other dimensions
Especially if they have the ability t
o slip into
This consensual dimension
You may find Mother Burgers
made for some hidden army
Hiding perhaps in that cool attic
That frequents my dreams
Everytime it's always a surprise
I'm always intrigued
To slip up and explore
It scares me sometimes
There's something there
Something that inspires fear
My attic is my brain
And vice versa
Mamby pamby story telling is for Assfaces
So stop
O.K.
Tourrettes is good for the dementional soul
Keep in mind it's their right
Let them flow, let them go
Let them see cats
Maybe ol' Spooky they ran over on accident with their car
For years they sat at the kitchen table with nothing to do
Never speaking a word to a grandchild playing w
ith pencils like they're people
Gendering lead writing utensils
By the paint the pencil company chose.
Play for hours among the bookcases
That housed an enormous collection
Of National Geographics and Reader's Digest compilation books
Maybe a few Jesus hands in the mix of the decore
Pushed together like I Dream of Jeannie
Hours.
Each shelf a floor of a pencil apartment
Class roles
The best pencils get the posh shelf
How did I decide?
What was pleasing to me of that penthouse shelf?
Was it that smooth, cloudy, milky dove figurine made of unknown firm, heavy material?
Only a grand pencil family would have that as a statue
Years.
Maybe a newer, cooler pencil
Only stopping for the only words that were known anymore by grandma
Informing statements of regularities
Lunch.
Then later as I got older and taller and she older and smaller
The way she looked up at me
I began to baby her and hide from her
The reality of me
