Leave Y

Leave Y

By Michael

(inspired by the poetic stylings of Anish Tilak)

"Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!"

Indian vampires running

Some reach shelter in shade

Others are obliterated in the unfamiliar sunlight

Finally, a test they hadn’t prepared for

A gunman is not an entity

It is merely a man, a gun and a mission

in close association

______’s a fucking liar

a guy who fucking lies

Pigs Wear Blue

And tell you what to do

If they only knew that blue lights induce a trip

Trojan Alert: Suspicious package call at Leavey Library. Library evacuated and location closed. Please Avoid area.

BK44Life – we didn’t know how true that could be

We all go down together – we’re family

Trojan Alert: Leavey Library still closed. 34^th St. closed between Watt Way and Figueroa. Rest of campus open.

“It’s like the apocalypse outside” Anthony says

hysteria below

winged dragons with propellers overhead

Lily gets up to work “closer to the bomb”

If it all turns to shit, she wants a front row seat

The pretense and fakeness of an overblown smile

like some cheap attempt at artificial intelligence

so overdramatized

an unfaltering generic response to all stimuli

I’d rather get the finger

- I ought to post this before the bomb goes off
