Nameless & two other new poems by Justin Rogers

NAMELESS

find a place where war never was
make a home without roof, or walls
where everyone visits, and no one leaves
where hate forgot
where love reigns

GYPSOPHILA ELEGANS

our darkest dystopian fiction
pales in comparison
to this pseudosociety that feeds children
debt swill & fear

our plaza’s godz and supplicants
feasting on the blood of the innocents
the weak
the weary

we have no cattle
my blue heeler and i

chasing dust on dusk’s horizons

FINAL FRONTIER

wherever your mind goes
that’s where your ass is at
my ass is free
cuz my mind is everywhere

not everyone gets it
i once wore my MY ASS IS FREE t-shirt
(fluorescent yellow w/glow in the dark green lettering
complete w/purple peace sign on the back)
downtown

the hookers were pissed
those crazy bitches beat the shit out of me

then the cops showed up
& arrested ME
for starting a riot

trust me on this one
uniform folks dont kno nuthin bout free

pretty much anybody can free their ass if they’ve a mind to
& be any place their ass wants to be

unless you’re an asshat
in which case you can’t find your ass with either hand
& you never know where the fuck you’re at

anywhere can be a shithole
unless your ass is free
