the typewriter in his office goes click clack click the blood on his fingers makes the keys stick his surgeon's smock, also, splattered with plasma you'd expect red but it's a glowing blue miasma types up a report to send to the general highly confidential the air-conditioner vents fill with big, billowing plumes and green and orange hues he realizes quite soon after finishing the last line he grabs the document and crashes through the window leaving behind the hospital and stumbling onto the sidewalk hands covering his mouth from the noxious gas he makes it to his car quite fast they don't want this getting out of this he has no doubt but "who? oh, who?" the eternal question... i forgot to mention the license plate on the back of his car reads "CARGOYLE" he likes the band's sounds but is not impressed with their lyrical style he speeds onto the freeway, beginning to feel Z withdrawals He opens a flask of Z Its phosphorescence shining from the spout and pours the contents of it into his mouth and down his throat he takes a left on Red Oak and pulls into the garage stinking of Z and the blood of that "thing" he opened up using not a scalpel but his mind that's why the FBI hired him for hsi particular skillset a telepathic surgeon and a jetset a millionaire playboy two yachts and a sweet goy wife but everything in his sweet, gold life is about to change because a silver, gleaming knife held by one of those "things" from out there standing in the garage giving a no-eyed glare he crumpled up the document and stuffed it into his mouth downed the rest of the Z and without a second's thought looked at the "thing". looked right at it and said, "if you want the document.. you're going to have to dig it out of my shit."

howl was the name of the poem yeah but it was the sound he made too he was a beat yeah but also a beast late at night howling at the moon his fur was abundant as his beard when he morphed his glasses shattered no rhyme no reason changing of the season claws ripping through grey matter hear my theory about ginsberg being a werewolf, baby i know it's weird but just lend an ear cuz maybe there's some truth to it nothing i can say will change your mind except maybe this so i'll try terror of coffee shops everywhere his jagged teeth and beret often scared the patrons and hippies sipping their sippies but baby, they're wimpy so let's bloody them up poetic justic reigned when the torches all lit up it was a mob of mobs even dads and moms threw molotovs at our lupine beat hero

sad boy love songs for the english majors god forsaken faces crept through my mind and I've become fulfilled on narcotic wisdom and it doesn't work anymore destruction of the youth caused by God-filled hatred of an upper class fool take me away my summer goddess for I am free i'm liberated into a million fading stars upon this noxious-induced sunset of uncertainty bleached souls for vacant hearts and glossy fingernails with small smiles of my loneliness fading from the timeline and inches away from hour-less moments eating away at the mental scar tissue name dropping siblings because that's all I know bipolar matrimony with thoughts from my father's side disposition and wrecked, weak hearts jesus fish gather around a lone fisherman's song and they all saw the antlers sprout from his skull all brown and blue

about

SO HERE'S THE LOWDOWN........
A KEENER IS SOMEONE WHO CRIES FOR THE DEAD. HER TEARS ARE MADE OF PLASTIC. FAKE AS A CROCODILE'S PITY PARTY. "PLASTIC KEENER" IS AN ALBUM OF PARTIALLY PLEASANT NOISE, SOME OF IT TRADITIONALLY GROOVY AND SOME OF IT MADE IN AN OUTHOUSE WITH BEAKERS AND CHEMICALS AND SHIT. SOMETIMES WORDS ACCOMPANY THESE NOISES FOR MAXIMUM EFFECT. BON APPETIT.
