Massacre in Blue

Let’s paint the world blue with aspartame and hydrochloric acid. 

We can pour it into coke bottles, 

You can’t drink,  

And watch the color float away;  

Then, paint the world blue, 

Bubbly. 

Tongues can’t lie

If they are melted to your teeth.

So color them cerulean

To contrast powdered bodies.

Navy flesh oozing off

Sea-foam bones.

We can paint blood sapphire, with a sweet, glittered shine;  

A mountain stream of coagulated tissue. 

Pour it into coke bottles,  

You can’t drink,  

And we could be blue,

Bubbly. 

Acid syrup, rotting teeth  

Pearly, electric 

Blue 

Hello, Skull.  

Hello, Blue 

Babies turned stone bones. 

We digress.  

We turn blue.

And amidst the chaos, 

Mingling with the coke bottles,  

You can’t drink,  

Sprigs  

Yellow 

Bloom.
