Week End Justification (Free verse) by half.italian

Bones rubber a bit loose ends defray mind eases Sordid pleasures fly tipsy on my tongue but there is no one to hear Knowing that hollow ears would only see words, I will be Kong King of Thought.

in the movie king kong, a giant ape escaped his captors in new york, climbed a skyscraper and was shot down by airplanes. though he was a raging wild animal, kong was a sympathetic character. to me the hollow ears line means somebody who either won't or can't listen, much like those who suggested that putting kong on display for entertainment might not be such a good idea.
