I AM JOE'S LOBOTOMY

I am Joe's lobotomy
the memory of the man
I stare in total bald disgrace
up from the garbage can

Once within
Joe's cranium
I lived a happy life
I loved his antichristlike kids
I loved his angry wife

But then
in faltering sanity
this happy world went bust
propelled
by Joe's crazed testicles
to acts of mindless lust

By Court's decree
straitjacketted
identified as sick
electroconvulsive therapy
just didn't do the trick

So down
beneath the knife we went
in circumstance forlorn
and I
the mute offending thing
from good old Joe was torn

My oozing mass
wastebasketted
and bloodied from the fall
I am Joe's lobotomy
and I have seen it all.
