Slurping a Plum Pit
the rable of a star's emotion--the right
static for the wrong mosaic.
tuning out at full volume, a star system
from the inside out.
its reverb over a ******* Jack house--
that comes out as: "Endless Nameless".
while flashing red lights keep time.
no--this is what bad blood in a tree's gnarl
can trigger, how it starts digging.
passed on many occasions, never noticed
before (not really).
buried revolutions of seeded spells--
casted on as they cast.
a moondial with cramps: 'what's come
over you?'
is what we ask ourselves, before others
ask.
where we reply: 'i was going to ask you
the same thing.'
therefrom a planetary chain reaction
would be too predictable.
as would a demon slurping a plum pit,
pointing to the aforementioned star--
saying it feels one-fifth apprehension.
