Egotist Eroder - By JLG Clift

Cum one
cum all
cum to me

Video

me
on my stage
in my

Drome

Central Park
i am outrage
this is
cutting
edge
paid for
by my
father on
the Upper East

I am
naked

American flag
draped
around
sun bed
shoulder blades

look out
onto the
audience

they adore
abomination
so that
is what
i will give
them

my name
is Maxi
Renn

Behold

i am the
Great Eroder

cutting the
binds
that
tie my
ligaments
together
through the stars
and stripes
stretched out
over my forearm

the statement will
be basic
but they will
lap it up
if i call it

Performance Art

Cutting
Edge

Cutting
with the
razor
raising brows
reactions
from the
crowd

are the
ones
i want

become
swept up
in the sensation
of dehumanisation

feel
your skin
crawl
feel yourself
aroused
by the gore

your organs
pulse and protrude
skinny jeans
as i ejaculate
though the veins
i have spread
for you

a smile
perfect
in every
way
direct from
Sunsett-
ing over
my stage

a photographer
snaps the image
cements me
as icon

for Vanity Fair

the crowd
adore
me
cheer
roar
rasping
for
more

of me

the razor
limp between
pedicured
finger tips
stainless steel
has my essence
flowing
from the edge

one of my fans
blonde haired
blue eyed
all
American
in short shorts
and a cut off
tee
is in
the front
row she
opens
her mouth
and her
head
rocks back
eyes
eclipsing
as i let
myself
gush between
pretty
red lips

she swallows
lips a new
shade of
red
and winks at me
pierced tongue
running
around the rim
of the gash
she uses
to smile

good girl

i think
i went to
school
with her

she went
to Dalton
too
a couple
of grades
below

she'll
deny it
if i ask
she will
never admit
she's rich
i know
her sort
hanging
out in Yonkers
in the day
to be edgy
with her

hipster friends

back to 72nd
and Central
by five
for dinner at
the Dakota
with her folks

my performance
must be
conveniently
close
to home
for her

the world
becomes
hazy
blurred

the audience
look
better this way
they look
like
they go on
forever

a wave
of well
spoken whites
washed up
across
central park
to be drawn
out like
the tide
when the show
is over

when i become
mainstream

faceless
fans are
howling
frenzied
cheers
for more

they
want
the encore

i am
to live
up to the title
on the fliers
i sent out

i will bubble
away
as
legend

a temporary
titan for
a tidal
generation
of would
be idols
if only
they had
the ideas
that possess
the greats

like me

my left
arm
is still
leaking
onto
centre stage

but on
with the show

my right hand
snakes up
to the rope
hanging above
my head

the bucket
it has been
attached to
rocks a
little
perched
on the
rafters
like a
vulture
waiting
for its
moment

i

pull

the
rope

swiftly

a
sheet
of
clear
water

descends
like
a bursting
bubble

hits the flesh
with hissing

i do
not
scream

as sulphuric
acid
helps
me
become

in

famous

it
strips
my tan
from my
flesh
from
my
bones
like
paint
thinner

smog
rises up
like vapour
after
a storm

its thick
like cigar
smoke
smells
like burning
bacon
and
French
caloungue

the American
flag
is fused
to perfect
pecs

i feel

the
colours
that dont
run
betray their
vows

run away
run off
washboard
abs
in the
Niagara Falls
of  my decay

it feels
like
I'm
in
my
wet
room

thanks

to the lines
backstage
that have
made me
superman

i am superman

i am
the Great Eroder

Eroder
Erodes

slips
down
into the
plug hole
i had
set up
before
i arrived

to be
sold
by the gallon
to my
fans
when i
become
nothing more
than
myth
and bone

the labels
read
'Liquid Legend:
the Great Eroder'

they will
think it's
cool

it's too
repulsive
not to be

i am
a god
to them
pure(e)
rebellion

a suicide superstar

Hotter than Hunter

Cooler than Cobain

Bigger than Jesus

the crowd
are still
cheering
when my eyes
give way
burst
like blisters
in the sulphuric
tears
i shed

the tears

the tears

are happy
tears

as i drop
to
my knees

cheers wash
through
me
wash
a smile
across
the wasteland
of my face

no lips
left
for them
to notice
it
but
that
doesn't
matter

they love
me

they really

love me
