Poem 165: Maybe there's time

having learned no treatment exists
for our tissue-eating virus
(which soon will have reached the braine)
perhaps there is yet time
for one more weird lament

for the people we know
and for those to whom we meant no harm
for the butterflies
and the long-eared rats
that live on my farm

for the visions delusions and dreams
that made life fun
right up to the end

although they never took effect


although some of them did


just as the
VERY
LAST
one
(caution:
nuclear-hot asshole
take shelter)
shall perhaps have done
