Lollipop Stairwells Biting Legs in Paisley Sheets

by jaydee - Taurus




thanking the broadcast
was a senior executive
with plenty of time left
for incomplete winners.

against an organized 
regime of fleas
the salt flower had
nothing more than critical poise.

beyond the thirty-six seconds 
of hiding they became
reliant upon the practice 
of excusing enormous bursts of voodoo.

the route was a severed range
and the theory called was
never one to withstand the onslaught
of confederate brigades that preserve misintentions.

could the giants defeat the stolen machines?
could the infant data compose enough saliva to guess the toss?
would the thread climb my chin like ivy looking for the sun?

where the city limits found the spanish mountains
was where the dog’s bark erupted from echoes 
bagged in a bell tone and imprisoned in
a book to be lost over time in a missed excursion
into the returning pool of biting fauna.

the vietcong needed a digital adaptor to find Cowboy in the thick. 
the corduroy kitchen was a colossal investment in the home.
the woman established herself with iron
and stainless steel.
awake in the eagles’ eyes as
they
soar
across the goose’s nesting tree
and steal every egg from the
straw and cable nests setting so gently in the crook.

recognize
the spreading rigidness of his reviewing.
the savior of
the truth is a gremlin in your pituitary line-up. 
we’ve been told of his possession by
the lizard in the booth.
i’ve looked for soothing oils in the records of the game.
there were none but ancient lightning strikes and 
dried grasses all aflame. burning languages i didn’t understand.
shut out all the catastrophe, but let the air be clean to lick.
