four

The

horror of hurray

in the heterogenesis

of endings

ie

coming together to expire

How ye masses move as breath in a jet

Not bioincandescent markers, raging

But shaped by reasonable desires

Everybody wants speed

to get there

Reasonably & the bus won’t wait

For fear of dying in the turbulence

or dropping the babe

regulations not plugged in, a lower altitude

to gauge the constant distance

from the original accumulation

to this iridescent heterogeneity

forged by pressurized jealousy

o cough to avoid it, croupiers

& pull that rake in

*

Extruding exuberance through the armpit

it was overbearing as a sunset beach

to boiled brains and rough lullabies

Allowing the bodkin to pry –

But do they know what filters out the blood

A geodesic relay

to what the state meant

as it slid between conglomerates

to identify with grey

plucking the entrails of an offering

found heartless – dreams and phantasms of cowardice

to identify the brain as its beat

beggars the turnkey

who pushes out borders til both ends meet

sucking the booty in

o involution –

found hanging before deportation

trunkwork is never easy. anchors away

to identify with heat

& stow the djinn in unbreachable cellophane

cook to shrink. a minor increase of four degrees

a curative ague, self-shadowing or self-touching

begging in a voice made small

 *

The ends obsess and bless

every personal transaction

or interdiction. Word –

just kidding. It’s a mess

of sincerity and fraud

You can carve it any way you like

Feed – play –

sleepy time for curious critters

at the minimum flare up

suck-up soothes a late baptism

as the sun goes campfire

on a cold streak – thanks.

where have all the oil drums gone?

waiting, a long time gassing

it’s what I’m packing for steak

if I remember my fingerlings, underlings, & loins

must confront a divergence of interest

among incompatible fibres

of the statement, finally released

after an eighty-year segregation

under the hospices of the great powers

to face a legitimate peace

 *

A sudden expression of rage

she confessed to me the injury

visuals reddening the clips

cut to seamlessly slander the hands and face

held severable until sold

and subsequently pinned –

masking it, dolls dance great stumbling periods

in equality of importunity

fielding a full team

and catching it in the face

skeptical of objectivity

and dream of flesh solvents and unspeakable surgery

we can nearly salute the resolve to responsibility

but the ordinary person sets the example

diplomacy backed by forceful fingers

sets a new clear line blasting

everyone down to inherent dignity

a toe left for the bath & an adequate gasp

her dress lushly ruffled by the tottering gimp

piston thumping his ribbons

each clap smacking the plate

behind the metal face they don’t believe in
