Turning Denial Red With Blood

CEE

What you mean is Not
“Unmanageable”
Life is unmanageable
When the noodles boil over
Or the cat pukes on your favorite CD
Or the wife won’t let you into bed
And brandishes her cell with a threat
If you try to climb in, anyway
Life
If it ain’t downtime in Huck Finn,
Is fuckin’ crazy

What you mean is Not
“Powerless”,
Either
That’s a freaktube thing
The rebel leader chick in “V”, vibrating in the torture beam
(GOD, that was hot!)
Or a drug that makes you defecate helplessly
Or Officer Friendly electing Not to say,
“You’re free to go.”

Powerless,
You’re DeNiro in Raging Bull,
Beating his hands broken in the “stockade” scene
Unmanageable,
Someone rear-ended your Volvo

I’d replace this twaddle with:
“When we recognized that,
We’d drunk until we didn’t even
Give a shit about not
Giving a shit,
And no had no money,
And no had no one left hold bag,
We organized.”
