		<description>Follow up work to Ryan Hoarty's Novella Suicide Before Death.  It's madness and that's all I can promise.  Everyone should read this and tear it apart, I'll take any criticism/analysis offered.  This is just the beginning</description>

		<description> On the road each night we air    

our grievances the passing days.  

through cigarettes, what is said there   

amongst the travelers will stay. 



Doctor Pepper and Lucky Strikes:   

a midnight trek now commonplace    

work now in tandem, for a price; 

how savory the lingered taste.    



On failing engines bet our lives,    

Choked in clouds misspend our prime    

and fuel addictions on the drive:    

Taurine, nicotine and time-    

    

a drug itself: the thieving clock.    

It levels all by its own course.    

The death knell of its ticking talk    

speaks volumes yet goes never hoarse.    

    

    

(So one more measure shall we pour,    

a glass we raise in company.    

The sun shines on no closd door;    

we share a drink with thee.)     ... more  </description>

		<description>I don't have  the time to makemore money, to    spend it here, or    to buy food.   I'm sorry I don't    leave large tips,    or buy the whole menu,   but I can't.   I do what I can    to help, I'm not the only one  in a rough spot.        However,    at the moment, I'm    hard-pressed to    keep my own shit together.        Until such a time      that I can support    even myself,    I hope    this poem will suffice    from me to you         As much as      strangers can    understand   eachother,      -Mike Tousignant</description>

		<description>A wildebeest is     
lowered to the army ant pen    
it's feeding time    
    
In the desert exhibit    
Steve Erwin taunts the locusts    
  with a bushel of corn    
    
Stagnant water pond    
giant water scorpions    
aren't really extinct    
    
down in the bug zoo    
  ranch hands ride the cockroaches    
on steeplechase courses    
    
Warm frothing sun    
jewel beetles desperately fuck    
a brown glass bottle
