Perdition Heyday

Cloudless heat: the sun bawdy and swollen, blazing rays on the cast.
Two guys, wet and junk-sick on the rollercoaster.
Mark, 22.
Ray, 25.
/ that celestial sensation is what we’re after man I mean I’m talkin some astronomical shit here man /
The mouth gapes a mad jester smile. Lop-sided and red. Contorted, farcical, obscene.
/ for real man there was a time when I couldn’t tell you the difference between a subject and an author man not even shittin you man and now I’m lost in some kind of psychosexual reading of my own existence man you know what I mean are you feelin what I’m sayin man /
Ray’s head dipping into the ether, bald spot exposed in the sunlight. Cotton candy cacophony. Carny complacency. Stereo synchronizing screams of uncredited extras.
(Def.: a state of utter bliss or potential mania. Side effects may include leaking yellow liquid with unpleasant aroma, lesions or other forms of bodily infection.)
/ you’ve been warned motherfucker I’m gonna hurl /
The ride is now malevolent. Tracks coil serpentine and plunge into Hades. Death-cries and dismay rent the air.
(Entry fee: $20 or $50, all rides included.
Have a fun day.)

I see a ceremony
of bloodless forms.
“this isn’t a descent into hell”
“it’s a dance floor”
They work themselves into entropy.
“they’re not even aware you’re here”
That’s a lie.
They look at me while
their flesh drips on the floor.
“you fucking dramatist”
They scream at me as their tissue peels.
Their skeletons clatter into darkened corners,
strobe lights flickering in their sockets.
“just get out if you don’t believe me”
I can’t escape this place.
