Jeremy R. Quintero: Poetry.

Exploration E.

Independently cruel, and expendable. A man’s best friend is his beaded clutch purse, with tampons and dildos. Manic street preacher at the end of the world.

Christians with xylophones playing The Hallelujah Chorus on megaphone. Petitions to start riots with non-Christians over turf space. My art is better than your art. My Jesus is better than your Jesus.

Attack on the right-wing for the exploitation of our youth behind closed doors. Attack on the left-wing for the exploitation of our generation on television.

I don’t know what I deserve more: a blood-test or a bruise. A box of eaten candy or a punch to the face. Back-brace or brace yourself. Christians with riot radio shows: My faggot swollen asshole is your America.
