We've been watching old bootleg copies of Vengeance Unlimited by way of escapism, and Andrew dug up his copies of Michael Madsen's poems, which are exactly as gonzo as you'd expect them to be; he's really determined to be beater than Beat and noirer than noir.
The Read Thru
When you make a bad film, it's there
Forever.
Like a big 250 ft. Herpe, with two
legs, and two arms and a big ugly
head always showing up when you
least expect it. Walking up
behind you; walking toward you,
with an "I'm gonna f*ck you up"
look on its face.
Everyone sees the damn things.
Over and over. Your friends, your
enemies, strangers. That's never true for the good films
you have, if there are some.
Anyway.
This big, swollen, red, festering
rotting 250 ft. pus vessel has
big feet, too. In a nightmare, they'll
be the last thing you see coming
down to smash your f**k**g head.
Sometimes, it's saying, "Hey, I'm not so bad."
But you know the truth.
