The Genius Switch Is Always On by J.J. Campbell

listless
thoughts
on a hot
summer
day

i know
the genius
switch is
always on

but my wiring
seems to be
fucked up

the sporadic
nature of
my life is
becoming
troubling

i’m slowly
devolving
into one of
those fucks
who reads
medical
websites
and the
symptoms
of whatever
disease is on
the news and
oh shit

they’re
describing
me

my biggest
fear is that
one day i’ll
actually be
correct

J.J. Campbell (1976 – ?) has given up the farm life and is now trapped in suburbia. He’s been widely published over the years, most recently at Dead Snakes, Easy Street, The Stray Branch, Pyrokinection and Horror Sleaze Trash. You can find him most days bitching about only the things he cares about on his highly entertaining blog, evil delights. (http://evildelights.blogspot.com)
