The World's A Stubbed Toe Poem by Shane Markie

The World's A Stubbed Toe

I can write or say anything:

Say that, (for example) there's a heaven,
say that the moon's a round faced yellow nymph:

Say that I can slide down a mile-long razor blade
& not cut my ass, or say that I can walk
through a lion's cage in a hamburger suit.

My pen stubs its toe on this reality
Comparable with cataracts and old men.
