neapolitan obliviate

this isn't impartial
don't tell me it's right
and claim ennui
when everyday it's
a chore to run from
those carnal elephants.
no different
not alike though.
escape a joke?
there are razors
in that low chuckle.
a cut
a scratch
a gouge
a canyon.
but tell me...
are the abrasions
any easier to bear?
you drippy
ice cream cone, you.
sandpaper tongue
knighted for
your obliteration.
