A little southern literary expose' for y'all

 

DESIRE

Damn, in that tube-top

You make me almost forget

That you're my cousin

BEAUTY

Naked in repose

Silvery silhouette girls

Adorn my mudflaps

REMORSE

A painful sadness

Can't fit big screen TV through

Double-wide's front door

DEPRIVED

In WalMart toy aisle

Wailing boy wants wrestling doll

Mama whups his butt

DEPRIVED (alternate ending by Scoopy Jr)

In WalMart toy aisle

Wailing boy wants wrestling doll

Mama puts smack down

OPTIONS

Unemployment's out.

Hey, maybe I can get on

Disability

BLAZE

Distant siren screams

Dumb-ass Verne's been playing with

Gasoline again

A NEW MOON

Flashlights pierce darkness

No nightcrawlers to be found

Guess we'll gig some frogs

EXUBERANCE

Joyous, playful, bright

Trailer park girl rolls in puddle

Of old motor oil

ALONE

Seeking solitude

Carl's ex-wife Tammy files for

Restraining order

HATRED

I curse the rainbow

Emblazoned upon his hood

God damn Jeff Gordon

OFFERINGS

Tonight we hunger

Grandma sent grocery money

To Jimmy Swaggart

DRAMA

Set the VCR

Dukes of Hazzard Marathon

At 9 O'Clock

NO SIGNAL

White noise, buzzing static

Call Earl; satellite dish

needs new descrambler

IMPOUNDED

Sixty-five dollars

And cyclone fence keeps me from

My El Camino

GATHERING

In early morning mist

Mama searches Circle K for

Moon Pies and Red Man
