new age hero

the dog
ten feet tall
in high heels
a red stripped tail
comes out of an alley
high voltage coming out of it's mouth
filled with nail teeth

cats eloping with mice
run like hell
all the way from dust bins
to the cosy bed of your dreams

the dog
ten breaths from your face
in a slow motion
mov
es
clos
er
and
clos
er
to
your pretty
face

just one bite
one small bite
like a touch
of butterfly wings
a soft revelation
coming out of the dog's
pus oozing jaws
and
your face
is not there

you can now stop worrying
about wrinkles that
a minute ago covered it
you can save money
on cosmetics creams and make-ups
sit at your desk
and take up
inventing conveniences
to help the faceless
