heathen
and plastic spaceships
settle as ash on burst rips,
their cumulative weight a multiple
of strained relationships and
driving to consume, spinning
in a welter of tamed places
spot
smoke dangle
enervate whip pistol
dug tone pesticide
grabbing through the bottom & too
defunct to trade market proof
thin bindle drawn fast
sane bits of truth
have hung everyone
have
spayed the most fertile
till eggs is more than little bird
demonology in yer hip pocket
more stippled than remembered
a ferret-headed man moans
"I heard. I heard." a Skagit
Valley map in his bruised fingers
blue notes highlighted, tendered
and worked into the anus
so
more
gurgle into wave
whole nations pouring over the border
waving plastic and desire
paving over till not a blade of synthetic turf
not one store-bought cig
cancerward musicals in the parking lot
sudden ballet fetch long, bent
stung
god factory
grace gravy pour
belt of wine-carved liver strands
flapping
heave
wind
bury face
bold draw & spangled
they descend: bright
beyond dream, within the storm
of attachments sprinkling down
like magnetic leaves
and starving for fluid |
