Crawling
Through the Dirt



Crawling Through the Dirt
Poem from the Netherworld Notebooks (Radio)

Kenneth DiMaggio

My stolen car
can only tune in
to a hysterical preacher
screaming how only Jesus
can save you

And whether
the one
at the all night gas station
was number seven

there was no defiance
in any of the clerks
or attendants
who showed
that they were worth
no more
than the minimum wage
they were going
to die for

Ah��shut up Preacher

because
you��me��Jesus
--we’re all too
undignified
to have something
worth saving

And continuing to prey
upon a dead civilization
will never separate me
from the banality
of my victims
