Wiring – Coleman Bomar

Visitor
Sweatily, Dave dreamed
Of alien anal probes
And woke to an egg
Headed visitor with black
Eyes bulging above his bed.
They were married
Three months later
Odd Invader
Sick exxxtraterrestrial
Pleasure
In a trench coat
Walks among men
Ready to flash
The poor creatures
Then laughs
Nothing but tentacles
Underneath
Purple and green
From a purple planet
Lightyears
Just to see
Their beige brown
Bipedal faces
When they gaze
Something not themselves
A dirty
Shocking horror
To such lower life forms
Purple and green
From a purple planet
Lightyears
Just to see
Their beige brown
Bipedal faces
When they gaze
Something not themselves
A dirty
Shocking horror
To such lower life forms
Conductive
Old box of wires
in the attic
my head
you unspool
pulling
a single dead thread
stuck so
tug then
the clump emerges
fuzzy yarn balled
how cannibal snakes
wrap themselves
in Lumped up
mockery
of connection
and this is what you wanted
to find
or the batteries
or flesh?
