MANPOEM

[Power Armor Felix]

MANPOEM

FLOWERS DO NOT EXIST THEY ARE CORRODED MYTHS OUTSIDE MY WONDERFUL
SPACE STATION
OF GREASY POWERDRILLS AND LEAD-BASED PIN-UPS WHO WILL NOT DIE
WHEN SHOT SO MANY TIMES

OIL CHANGES USED TO HAPPEN EVERY THREE MONTHS, BUT NOT HERE
THIS IS MANPOEM
WE TAKE RISKS WITH THE PURITY OF FUEL NOZZLED INTO OUR ROCKETS
AT PENNIES ON THE DOLLAR
NO COW IN THE HARBOR WILL TELL US WHAT WE CAN DO WITH OUR SNACK PLATTER
SAVE A LITTLE FINGER OF ZERO-G CHEESE FOR THE BOOKIE
MANPOEM

IS A WAY OF LIFE, OUR IMAGES FEATURE BIG SCREENS OF LOUD
SENSORY DEPRIVATION, ********' BUMBLEBEES HAVE NO WAY
IN
OUR SPECIALLY DESIGNED AIRLOCK HAS DO-IT-OURSELF RADAR
ARMED WITH MASSIVEMICROMISSILES
MANPOEM

DISINFECTING DISINFECTANTS
IRRADIATING ALL GIRLIE SMELLS

BRINGER OF LIGHT, AH!
INTELLITRON, BRING US SCORES FROM YOUR METAL SHELL
STATISTICS MEASURED WELL
BY RULER AND ATONAL BELL
OF WHEN WE WILL LEAVE FOR PLANET BAR
BURNING DOWN TO THE EVENTUAL GREEN GRAVITIES
OF CHEERLEADER BEERGARDEN TRAMPOLINES!

MANPOEM
IS STOIC FOR THIS DAY

[Aehlae]

VERY NICE, YES. IS GOOD.

Thanks for viewing my rants mrgreen I've been thinking about the topic of sensory deprivation in poetry for awhile now...

MANPOEM

That word alone is epic.

[Louder Than Bombs]

I liked the use of capitalization and the humor for me was spot on.

[return 2 fetus]

THANK YOU
I WAS CHANNELING BRICKS
AND SENSUOUSBRUSH
AND FRUSTRATION
AND MANSHOW COMMERICALS

Perfume is the only legal open-air gas chamber. It's like a bookmobile equipped solely with nose-pulling pliers. For women it's a DEFENSE SYSTEM intended to disrupt any who look too close or too long by means of an insidious attack on the mucus membranes. Be AWARE. Be WARNED. When a minor organic odor is expunged by CHEMICAL DEATH, our freedoms go with it.

YES, YES IT IS. Other poets have tried writing MANPOETRY, but often it becomes mid-life cris-is crystalis OLDMANPOETRY with bear totems and s**t. ONLY TED NUGENT CAN GET AWAY WITH THAT. AND BUKOWSKI.

But seriously, I haven't seen much that questions the innately feminine nature of poetry; even when loud the devices and inward nature of speaking come across as delicate. The sensuous nature of smell-focus cinnamon sticks is definitely girlie. The first step to recovery is to cover one's skin in metal, YES.

ON SUNDAY. IF KILLER SLUTS FROM MARS DOES NOT TAKE
PRIORITY!

METAL SHEATH SAYS
(CUT ME ONCE, CUT ME TWICE,
*************CUT ME THREE TIMES A LADY)

DENY THE SENSES!
CIRCUMCISE THE CHILD'S c**k AT BIRTH!
FUNNY, I DON'T FEEL MUTILATED
OR TRAUMATIZED
OR ANY LOSS OF PLEASURE DUE TO MY
(JOVIAN) SPECTROMETER
BEING REDEFINED!

AS IF SOME EVE
FROM AN ENLIGHTENED SOCIETY WERE SUPPOSED TO
NURSE MY SCARRED NOBLE PRACTICAL
MANHURT PASS ITS KERANTIZED
INTELLECTUAL BEGINNINGS IN A SHEET-
CHEESY LOVESCENE! JOE HALDEMAN OF COURSE
WRITES ABOUT THIS SORT OF BUOYANT SPACE PORT
AND SOCIAL CHANGE THROUGH POWER ARMOR--

A REAL MAN!
NO, A VIETNAM VETERAN.
IT'S HARD TO TELL BY BACK-COVER BIO
IF THE KING'S SCRIBES WERE ALWAYS PUSHED DOWN
ON THE PLAYGROUND. CALLING A WRITER A MAN
IS LIKE SEEING THE BRAIN SWELL INTO A MUSHROOM
OR AXEHEAD AND BREAK OFF THE STALK,
TO TRIP OVER LIFE AND DIE BALD (RIBALD)
AND REPRODUCE GLORIOUS SMALL MECHANISMS AND CONTAINERS
WHICH WIND UP IN THE HANDS OF BOYS (SAYING UNFORTUNATELY
THEY WERE MEANT FOR GIRLS).

DENY THE SENSES!
TO EVEN APPROACH A p***s POEM
IS TO TAKE YOUR HAT OFF TO THE CLITORIS
AND ADDRESS IT TO SPEAK AT THE PODIUM.
BUT TO THEN SILENCE HER PUG NOSE
BY TALKING OUT OF TURN, SUGGESTING THAT ALL METAPHORS
FOR SEX ARE A MISREPRESENTATION.
ONLY THE MECHANICS ARE TO BE TRUSTED!

THE ONLY COLORS IN MY HEAD COME FROM AN OILSLICK
AFTER A RAINY DAY, AND I DO NOT PAINT EXCEPT AS WHAT YOU CALL
"ACTIVITIES FOR SPECIAL CHILDREN"
BUT I CALL UPON YOU POETS, IN MY SLUG-WRIST
COTTON MOUTH WOUND-WAY,
TO DENY THE SENSES! FIGHT ALL THAT IS CANVAS-SAGE!

LESS TO BE MISREPRESENTED
IN WHAT YOU REALLY WANT TO SAY.

[quasiplausipus]

Okay, I keep reading these in my head with the voice of that movie announcer guy.


FELIX! THIS IS YOUR FAULT!

[Power Armor Felix]

INTELLIGEMETAL

WE FEAST ON THE FIRE IN THE FOREST BEFORE THE FROST
AND BALANCE THE COSTS ON AN ORGY OF TONGUES
DIANA LIVES FOR NOTHING, SHORT
OF AN OVERABUNDANCE OF TORSO-FUR. GET SOME CLIPS,
b***h. HERE'S A ROASTED WHITE APPLE
FOR A METART VIDEO.

FOREST GLADE GONE INSANE!
WHO WILL PAY? WHERE'S THE BEER?
I SCALPED FOUR DOZEN HIPPIES WHILE WAITING
FOR MY HAIR TO GROW LONG WITH TECHNICAL PROWESS...
SACRIFICE THE LAMB RADIO! PULL TUBES FROM ITS GUTS!
MY CHILD, HAVEN'T YOU SEEN WHAT METART CAN DO
TO A HUNTRESS MALIGNED BY OUR NIPPLETONGUES?!
REMOVING MOST OF HER FUR...
WITH OUR GLISTENING WICKED DIPHTHONGS...

FOREST GLADE GONE INSANE!
OUR MAINSTREAM IS NOT A CLEAR BROOK MAINSTREET
OVER EARTHY FALLEN LOG, NO!
WORMS WILL FEED ON THE PALE DRYADS--WELL, AT LEAST
HAVE SYMBIOSIS BETWEEN THEIR DAINTY TOES.
BUT ******** THAT GLOW, THAT WAS YESTERDAY (YEAH!)
AND NOW WE HAVE A MOSTLY FURLESS CONCOCTION
SUITABLE FOR A METART VIDEO. MOONLIT AND SET
ELBOWS ON A LOG, YEAH THAT'S THE POSITION.
NOW FOR A NAME FROM THE HARPERS OF SCANDINAVIA
OR SOMETHING... (SNOW WHITE ALTERNATE FOLKTALE,
DO IT MAN!)

VERY WELL.
THE FEAST OF DEIRDRE SHALL BE A REPAST
OF THE HIGHEST SOLSTICE, ONLY TO BE DISTURBED
BY OUR ARGUING GUITARS.

GENTLEMEN, NO ARM PULLING!
THERE'S PLENTY OF NATURE'S CARCASS TO SATISFY
EVEN MY OWN GAPING-RIB POTMAW BELLY.
BEGIN THE HAIR-WHIPPING CHORUS
AS THE CONVEYOR BELT TAKES HER TO BAMBI VALHALLA!

(WE FEAST ON THE FIRE IN THE FOREST BEFORE THE FROST
AND BALANCE THE COSTS ON AN ORGY OF TONGUES!)

[Brokenback Exodus]

THESE STRONGER THAN OX CART VERBS LEFT ON SCHOLAR YARDS.


NO MANLY MAN CARE TO GALVANIZE.


SENSUAL GALVANIZATION IS EVIL.


NO NEED PROMOTE ACCESS TO p***y FOOTED TOUCHY-FEELY REALMS.


GOOD TRANSGRESSIONS TO YOU!

[BananaSaurus]

NO NEED DETERMINER OR PREPOSITION TO PRESUPPOSE IS GATHER THOUGH WE HUNT

[Supermassive Panda]

I dare you to write a MANPOEM sonnet. That's a b***h.

[Aphrodite f l y t r a p]

Oh, that's oodles of epic.

Absolutely awesome, Felix.
