The Ulterior Of My Interior
by
Tony Mujica

the ulterior of my interior
needs to exit
torward exterior.
the dark motive deep inside,
needs eviction
to end its ride.

these underlying bits
of stubborn grit
need heavenly help
to bring omit.
like gritty dirt
in a celery stalk.
it can effect my daily walk.

once I watched
a tv chef
show how
to clean a leek
from the nitty gritty.
when he was done
he had something
whittled down
so very nice and pretty.

Lord, i'm gritty
and oh, so leek-y.
won't you whittle
me down
nice, clean and squeaky?
