Buckeye
(w/Rebecca Houwer)
after the bomb drop and stained with the news
wheeling east to green mountains and blues
the roadkill masses, sings, and re-deploys
you breathed real scary but were only breathing
thin-walled morning
stalking “miles, money, hometime” honey: a bee’s pretty penance
& has each bite become a kind of self-embalming?
the sweet delight of the night light, hopelessly faint…
a wildfire BBQ across the chicken-fried plain
(hoppy, poppy, put that jaeger bomb away)
a foreigner’s lusty eyes surveyed the rusty skies and found it rude and bootyful
but we just killed a butterfly (its wings went good on toast)
oh! ohio, how are you?
buckeyed and bushy, big and broad
tall and long
what would it take to steak and shake you up?
memories of french silk pie and nutbuster parfait?
( if you find this monument to be obscene,
please call the cleaning contractor
who is rassling roaches in the bible cellar )
THE LARD’S DECLARATION
“occupy, occupy, occupy, till I come”
drive smart ride safe
a street-sweeping dragon dreams a tailpipe suite
... a story
about smoke and marbles, steady whittling
junebug gasping
and CASH MONEY
