Sestina 4 - Edit my health

Are you sound of mind? Addicted to dandelions like the ocean is to ice. Wait outside the blood bank, learn how to write dialogue and make saccharin spines. My journal is a tangle of spines, keep an open mind help me box up my vulgar dialogue. I’ve always been a fan of dandelions etching paths along the river bank, streams within the winter ice. Buckets of camphor ice relax the notches in spines as we wait in line at the food bank. Thoughts of jawbones on my mind, the taste of dandelions and organized pre-scripted dialogue. Backhanded blue dialogue, counting the vanilla crystals of ice blowing the smell of cinnamon into floating dandelions. My hands handle happiness spines with the peace of mind of money in the piggy bank. Let's rob a bank shooting quiet malleable dialogue through an altered state of mind. Your ribs are two sheets of ice ivy wrapping around our intertwined spines crumbly blowing breaths of dandelions. Second hand dandelions build up in the river bank muddy trenches around spines whisper outspoken blue green dialogue. Three pounds of dry ice, warm water vapour at the back of my mind Store buy your dandelions, bear in mind that the West Bank is covered in ice and that spines speak their own muted dialogue.
