Creamed Corn Congealed in a Can

up with the vampires
down with the angels
strangled and starving
tap dancing again
rock bottom again
a friend once asked if I'd ever had a canned
vegetable kind of day
yeah, I said
creamed corn
that is pretty fucking bad, he said
you ain't lyin', I said
I don't like fresh corn
won't eat canned corn
candy corn is okay
in a pinch
since you won't come to my party
I'm throwing away the confetti
Ferlinghetti said it best
or was it Buzz Lightyear
if you can hear my heart breaking
from across the room
bring me some punch, already, you bastard
