The Erotic Daydreams of an Infant Worm Being Sucked Backwards Through a French Milking Machine

Steven Forde

I. The Meaning of Life

Poor, magnetic fool, do not lick my brain

When the cantaloupe falls between the walls, that's when I'm insane

For no one knows where Bozo goes when it starts to rain

II. Gardening Made Easy

How many men can see the moon

With the Magic Muffins near?

My nuts itch.

V. Green Signifies Death

Little three-armed children sitting there

Looking dreamily at each other

And trying to spell "Czechoslovakia."
