Mar 2019
Tall grass and famous landslide in Mississippi
it told me yesterday about your coming

architects from celibacy and bent horns from across the nations
they sang to me yesterday about your arrival

destroy the elite and build an underwater glass house with pharmaceutical shipments
negate the metal rust and shave it right off with lawnmower intact
grab onto musical instruments with reddening knuckles and hunting socks
don't wear out your hunting socks
before it's over
don't wear out your hunting socks

I do think it's good
I do repeat myself when under stress
I do watch for camcorders filming my last kitchen
I do enjoy parkour!
now one of them's a lie

now is a lie

bird watching paint drying reminiscent of the particular fetish for gallantry
acts of strange science fiction cause processes to get a little finicky and hardly noticeable
remember that time in college when?
Easily born from a roasting turkey
it's gonna be terrifying and unrecognizable by the time

question your stress and cheap luck, darlings!
Get addicted to anxiety and rotting perfume, schoolboys!
Odorous indulgence never occurs to frankincense
who is the turkey roaster himself in the flesh

five or six minutes will pass before some idea other than the following dawns on you
you and the reader here are not pawns
like chess, man, like chess
you got it, goat!

Best yet
hardly a challenge
do tell
as the crowd demands
