Tom Beckett



Sex is


That car crash
I want
To reenact.

Sex is
A hobo
With a yoyo
On a pogo stick.









Sex is
A slant rhyme.

Sex is
Time undone.

Sex is
What?!









Sex is
Old school
And woke!

Sex is
Flush and broken.









Sex is
The spine
Of the Real.









Sex is
Reruns generating
Massive residuals.


Sex is
An accident
One just
Barely survives.









Sex does
And doesn’t

Do stand-up.


Sex crunches
The numbers.

Sex knows
How to

Work rooms.









Does sex
Know what
It’s saying?

Is sex
Diminishing squares?






Tom Beckett lives, writes and will likely die in Kent, Ohio.
