a galleon flares its

increasingly anxious shore.

who doesn't like a tablecloth

whose interim offers a hand

of marinara sauce--

he dug beat poetry...

& keeping a lion in his

basement.

in a staunch-white,

short skirt.

papercut-rumples of

a ****** lamp cover.

under a cocktail umbrella.

navy blue, with white polka dots.

on the lip of a shoreline, under

a blazing sun.

an oxford comma

clears the throat

of a subway staircase--

as a pigeon feather

would.
