the weird world
unveiled its fucked up face
and i stared at it
for a long while--
horrifed to its
rancid breath,
droopy black eyes,
gapped teeth and
lapping tongue and

i looked for
alternatives
in various planets,
substances, drinks,
and veils and
concluded after
a long bout of balancing
scales with homeopathic
remedies that

everyone is horrible
just like me and
it's alright,

we got good
personalities
this way
