< songs from the 81st floor >
rarely reach the ground
a song at night
sung moments before
reaches its way
50...
24...
but rarely
reaches the ground
a song
when sung from the 81st floor
washes out in waves of breath
these songs that seem to sing themselves
aching for ears
for years
reach down
singing a song from the 81st floor
their voices
their words
may sound like these
and watching
watching as they drop...
they drop...
they reach the ground

farts from the top bunk:
she farted
it fell
through the laths of her bed
it dropped, and clung
to me old sweaty 'ead
and here i thought women
like her
were all better bred.

P.S.
Even a woman who is high in class and says her prayers by night,
may let a fart when the beans are good and the chili hot and right.
Stolen from famous werewolf movie quote:
"Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night,
may become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms and the autumn moon is bright."

A fart, is a burning thing,
that can lead your heart to sing,
but when thrown, off a spire,
it can turn, into a ring of fire.
And it fell down like a burning ring of fire,
it went down, down, but the flames rose higher,
and it burned, burned, burned,
that ring of fire, that ring of fire!

How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?
The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.
