Up Ending
Colorectal pancake strata
souvenirs for the guideline finish
an apparatus long delayed
under suture toward wind chime follies
or near pellagra under the verdigris
chanting reversal polish unclued
for leaking the stratagems liking
their fossil line of facile stripes
and lewd conundrum stickers
potted along the patio tables
a disarray whose jonquil precedents
rummage tranquil overture clues
stabbing the back acid ladle
a quest for greater meaning
in the starts that finish the race
The Future Brings
Salmon feet
brushstroke, toadies set the llama bed:
courier maladies at bay.
Fibroid epiphanies juncture
dissembling artifact reruns on casters,
a polyflux dividend
consumed
in surgical madness buttons
on rental.
Dividend bluster to the contrary,
fascination holds itself at arm’s-length
pending sugar outlets.
Varicose medleys
strain an aching gland past the breakers
on watch
for cresting. Avenue reruns
mottle the custard thread before entering
the nest at full gallop
seeking cluster motifs for their next
Weathering the Norm
Jump cut tempo splice:
pianoforte mix on match point’s
latest leap, a barking tundra
seeps through the mired grate.
But for the price-fixing heap scratched
under the veil, an oblong surfeit
of crater mass poorly cast
on strong beds for willing seepage
and sleeping cluster phobias,
the fast would gladly heap their
shattered joints. A cruising fuselage
slowly pancakes the latter point
with sheer assembly. Near
the goal’s posted coastal fixtures
the bracket only creeps toward
the text conjunction next
aligned, but, once sliced akimbo,
the mixed marsh signs archly
under a toned bravado’s shed.
Mostly no matter, the liquid python
glides over dead shores
tracing the old rout streams
to boot the deepened foot ramp
beaconing the lighthouse
A Wresting Desire
The pulse of a willing vapor
breeds a slowing impediment
against weeping pillars.
A marbled flesh proceeds
only to the next animus, stops.
Still as a windless moment
before the rustling resumes
the steep climb through sediment
pulsing deep below, the will of
its intransigent murmur eases
over aching terrain. A dense need
creeps slowly past sleeping
pores. Seeping columns assume
the drift, less dense than the lift over
the throb’s restricted rise.
Working Art
Rectangular azimuth pledges
cling to fluid reclamation markers,
tilling reverberation panels
darkly toward arrears
in saturation. Camels, slowly turning,
pace to a watered fling
across a scattered envoy,
persiflage united on a flag trail stammer:
consonants against the wind,
a canvas to bargain its nature.
Furthering legends mottled
the passage from bottled arcana
to staggering home at dawn.
Lectures enjoyed fluorescent salvage.
Coconut avenue twists at parlance sweeps
across unheralded trajectories
where palettes creep along the sand
