Two Poems by Adam Levon Brown

Profane! Profane!

Melodious misanthrope,
Oh, how I’ve missed you!

Welcome back and don’t worry,
The fun is just starting.

Sit back, relax, grab a beer,
And watch it all unfold

What you are about to see
Will thrill you and chill you

Monsters don’t hide behind
Billboards for any particular

Reason do they?
I guess we’ll find out.

Picture the sun spitting
Its rays at you

Oh, but that’s how you view
The world….in sunbeams

Take the scepter from the
Chalice and hang it on the wall

Religion is dying, baby,
And you’re invited to watch




The Anti-Activist

                  Separating the senses
into the lens of indifference
                  spits the atom right back into place


                  If you’re not involved
you can breathe freely

                  But when Silk becomes worn
It always knows when it’s useless
