Looking Out

Tangential cluster fuck apparatus
a sacramental premise of filtered longing
rents the cusp as its satellite flumes
over pruned crossings, fragrante delicto
of curse. Tossing the dice, a garter
weds the blessing of mixed science
unmatched. Orgone hemispheres attached
themselves to lipid vibrato tendons.
Thatching its vital loins batches cases
under neon-lined erasure, a thunder
of voices capsizing springs. An idea born
beyond its own reach brings choices,
the referential tucked among the luster
garments bring. Worse matters coursing
the marble ratchet irritate the grains.
A water shared by all at the falls renews
the patterns of laryngeal splenectomy
fodder silting the mainstream floor
where divagation ensues mainly in the
plain-speaking rotor assembly gathered
at the harbinger door, watching the sweat
burst the eye through its ancient keyhole.


Emptied Drama

Sanskrit oblations throttle the rubicon
fixture, a tassel astride the mixing bole
slathering heaps baffle for proposal.
Billfolds in crease match really delays
at the bell. No swelling tide shall ease
the shore’s receding crescent, nor its
seething nuptials. Its dreams of antler
extremities beguile the eremite notion
or footage on a squatting roof. Any moot
court would find him academic, to say
the utmost. Cleanser tonics absolute
astonishment from tenor quadrants
peeking around scattered corners,
at leak where they may charge
a stormy pestilence. Vapors emerge
free of plebiscite flooring and termite
contraband recruits. Subtle storage
facilitates water lockage dart procedures.
Complementing straw planarian suits,
vertical lumbago faucets planetoid notions
applicable to present tension voids
where inhibited or drawn to quarter
size proportions. Engendered distortion
slowly motions to the judge. A mooring
oceanic in its baited subtlety, renewed
ostrogoth lending recruits amphibian
concrete notions, passe abstractions
posing anywhere the masque strikes.
