“Too Late for the Dolly Llama” by Jim Lally

Stick Tight Man

Raspberries on the lemon trees
fish popping out of the tomatoes
sheep that sing Hello Dolly

I might be me but
I could be part you

What’s the use
of keeping our genetics
in our jeans
when we can put a gorilla’s
head on a giraffe
just for laughs

Beam me up Scotty
break
down
my molecules
transport me to some
other pod
There’s no need for me
to clean up for reincarnation
when you can put my old brains
in a brand new bod
