courtney love

let's get drunk
with aboriginal eskimos
at a villa in coconut-odored tahiti
we'll fly there
on a leased 767
stocked with chivas
& hash & whale-blubber &
nude stewardesses
who suck & suck & suck
who fix us all pretty at
40,000 feet
free from moral media frenzy below
free from pissy-faced suspicious cops
from shit-mouthed journalists
& film-makers,
conspiracy flakes quoting luke

why eskimos? you question
because they know extreme cold
& icy blood & month-long
midnights complement black tar heroin

why tahiti? you wonder
because displaced sunburnt eskimos
can so easily be
manipulated, else
drowned in warm ocean
mistaken for tahitian natives dead like
that, bloated, tongueless
