Boona Daroom
Girl with the Padlock
girl with the padlock on her cellular
sighs between exhales and consonants
plight barrels through who knows
what she snots a line sucking
from her world backwards
Alexander Hamilton
two hours from now will be fire
slurred hocks slobbering corrosives
i leave suddenly to hide inside salmon
berry bush blundering like a power line
we lay under such splayed lithe plastic
dreary sentences on Fourteenth Street
Horse’s Grave
Emotionless pines
we've proved stir.
Red August
itching up. No ring
raising cane
when Empty came
almost completely.
Bored with. Bare hearts.
Cornucopian Skull
morning watched a glass shatter
ice in the basement made a turtle
dove into her sheets and she
saw reflected a mother’s face
men tramped snow in and out
shushing everyone was blue
and handsy chicks pulled
up pairs of black socks
blather in the head
soldiers some things
about oil and containers
you shouldn't drink from
how a robot dismantles itself
to see all its thoughts.
