rotting horse carcass. green glowing filament by moonlight ****** & mistrust us. radioactive drums of waste &/or dreams. boys swimming. fistfights at night by headlight & tooth crackle. (spit) then bonfire pallets lit & danced upon. plumes of gas-can outcries. the days & abuelitas & ghosts pinched cheek - pinched cooler - grandaddy on the grill. his gasping yellow dogs. judy is in the underbrush with a walkie-talkie & a p.b.j. desmond leaps from high rocks; he descends into another world by way of molecular-mishap. dove deep. riding the portal boar. wasps hover above spilt wine & declare war upon brothers with b.b. guns & firecrackers & spf 50+. the saturday/sunday sagas between beams of heat laughter breakdowns to knees, to bees, honey. homecoming queen dead & wrapped in plastic. body found with turtle bites. fungi. the slabs of granite. old iron tractors bent & held by tree wives. toast. jam hewn hwedges of crisped bread.
