Rag Shag Paradise
RAG SHAG PARADISE
there we where
me and my girl
Vavavavoom
speeding on a curving dark road
she
silky luscious
falling all over me
like a chinchilla fur
it was a menacing and stormy night
we pulled up
to the dimly neon lighted
Rag Shag Paradise Motel
and adjacent diner
the Creepy Pasta Restaurant
that looked like a blinking furnace
where reality doesn't care what happens
and hemorrhages chaos
like a flushing toilet
at the end of the line
nly exists for a few minutes
planted to create an illusion
to nourish self deception
a crime without a criminal
a continuity of the nothing
yet in it
an inevitable unfolding of consequences
like a scream scattered throughout the cosmos
a good place to curl up for the night
a point of departure on a lumpy rolling bed
as we vanished beneath the sheets
