"Je Veux"

"I Want" - A poem on desire.

Habibti, please

Why can’t you see

I wanna abolish enmity

I wanna legislate clemency

I wanna canonize Seal Meat Pete

I wanna move someplace pretty neat

I wanna greenlight spaceflights on MTV

I wanna give the people's elbow to wrestling

I wanna hear Cleopatra beguiling Marc Antony

I wanna trip mescaline while boxing Apollo Creed

I wanna plagiarize Wikipedia for your autobiography

I wanna save Atlas from his eternal burden, ala Hercules

I wanna smoke spliffs as Socrates mocks high philosophies

I wanna ghostride the whip in my buddy's Honda Odyssey

I wanna kick-flip off the Hoover Dam 2 be rad 4 infinity

I wanna hibernate forever, but I'm really rather fidgety

I wanna graffiti Leonardo da Vinci’s Vitruvian man

I wanna trade Ray-Ban’s for dark web contraband

I wanna pout as Chef Ramsey pillories my flan

I wanna cyberbully myself to build the brand

I wanna defy these sleep-paralysis dreams

I wanna learn healthier dependencies

I wanna seek depth in Ketamine

I wanna reboot my chemistry

I wanna watch lovers leave

I wanna cherish ecstasy

I wanna try to be

everyone else

save for
