Clean Page!

Clean Page!

i want a Clean Page!
but there's all these fucking words on this page!

Gimme a Clean Page
I can
do magic
make a boat
put little nicks in my skin
spit, was and blow through a straw
make an umbrella
wrap a fish
(okay-- a *small* fish)
tear it up into little squares and do math
stain it with coffee rings
fold it into an aerodynamic arrow, toss it and take
out someone's eye, just like my mom said I would
wipe my ass, tape it to a wall and be an artist
fold it up really small and high and balance my lunch table
tear out individual horizontal strips width-wise, staple them together on the west side, glue a singular mashed green pea at the bottom of each strip, starting at the west and moving slightly each time to the east, let the peas dry, then flip the pages and watch a seemingly moving singular mashed and dried green pea fly across the bottom of my torn horizontal width-wise paper strip from west to eat
moebius!@

I could do *all* these things with a Clean Page

Clean Page!

But--
god dammit
theres all these
fucking words
on this page

words
sloppy words
wasted space
meaningless
violating
defacing
raping
even
The Sanctity
The Purity
The Heavenliness
of insurmountable perfection of spacing
of aqua-blue-green width-wise printed lines
and their lonesome sister
the vertically un-challenged and wholly holy
inscrutable red rule of north to south (or south
to north if you're one of *those* types,
that, together, would have otherwise lay flat together
with their next door brothers and sisters, in sanctity,
into old age peacefully until time, the elements
and gamma rays from passing comets
broke them down, back to the whole of whence
they came.
or someone made a mashed green-pea flip book with them.

whichever-----

but
NO

I am the perp
the violator
the defiler
the page rapist

I had no right
to do this
I had no right
to mark and bruise

these Clean Pages

Clean Pages!

I am *the*
quintessential
asshole
with
a
pen.
