1 A FAUN
urea,
arraigned not braille
batton bio-wicker
Benzoin strange holly wool
sulled.
pirate rays come out at dusk,
egging elements of perked
frontal diadems.
Alantis Gabba,
emerald
to dump your materials,
an agitated gala
rusty joke changed for 1000%
as time is scraped here,
ill drum sublunar dancing,
ask me to drown
the ozone's
lozenges
on bitter tenterhooks.
2 SWEET LIGHT
coins of the king's cousin fall into dirty suns.
notice of the azure hammond
roasted DoD comfit stallions,
archaeological filligree estuary piled.
.33 nothing, rude opens
hoi polloi oblation with Ritalin stickers.
soke Radaris adamantine
duster empyrean for nudes leaning,
it exploded all the silence of the inner thighs
conjoined at noon,
spitting.
3 POOR
dawn's lamps are filmed
the marvelous city
breaks into the helix
the first silent names were closed
here the absence of blindness
has been blinded
my flight gun crystal
it is poured like old blood
solitary time
bursts its arches
(as ancient prey)
as an indentation of the monkey's flesh
marking metal trees with cold extensions
the heart's rotation
while the eyes drop
protecting past flaws
the world bent down
it was the peak
witchcraft nimbus fractal
to dissolve the praise of the mind
the last sky is falling very soon
and very originally
and I, too,
fell
simply to fall
but never to rest with dust
I am poor and at risk
I am poor
& danger.
all bait
esteem fan pall particulars
last mirror,
anvil bellicose
a site anagram
trance left for hiss
vacant nodes of tan cars
elephantine sex primers
nom de guerre with SOS
aqua labia dread something
guess
has engraved god and mice
messed vita mosey Pisces
delve volumes
saber coca commands sang
vast craters arched
with pixels
in dirty alembics:
AFT MAN
eating ways of life:
the Angles were showered,
the sovereign apes slanted -
on autumn fortresses to
disembark,
the prawn's dinner
waits for suppression
christen caskets
in bloody cascades
inside rooted sails
as the defective eye is
rewound.
the obelisk ruins the
diamonds
with an absurd absentee,
lowering heads
in a pronounced manner,
- but gently.
