Beautiful Music Outplayed
a desperation mattress
caught in ballad’s hot pursuit
a madness
at the mural heads roll
the pass
over
the
deaf-eared
overture
advancing matter, energy the former
heroic in transforming the thought
word as
deeded
decodes receded residue
springs
the nodal lunge
synthetic
entreaty
dabs
spotters trained
in the code of the crabgrass murder
no window scene flayed
when the brutal shadow
displayed a frontal edge
the pitch tuned
to ears
out of hearing
Afterbirth Control
spontaneous comprehension
stripteases yachts in the monastery
unexpected
banjo factory a live augment
plagues
at the margin
everything moves to
guillotine
the multidimensional continuity
breakthrough
mandarin lore:
instrumental muster for the human
volcano
*
mileage candor
resuscitates past hammering
and chaotic scorpions thatch
random convection projectiles
chameleon linearity
currents
exquisite magnet quarrels
magenta doggerel drooled
ecstatic
on the painter
lark polarity the hobble
legitimate
in the first placenta
Secret’s Exhibition
clandestine
portfolios its intimate
charade
a slow burlesque
brings ancient breath
to runic emblems
no stegosaurus left to run its doublethink
before the rubicon
challenge bolding its nightline thrust
a
timid murmur faced
reduction its own hearing breath
plate shattered
clatter
annoy
the aging who shift to the right
their windbreakers catching the current
of past
emissions galore
at the reduction platter
where serpent invaders
inured to the past
reclamation haunt
its vague suspenders float adrift
direction a suspension of leisure
pulling the emblem camp legend
underscoring the mileage debacle
patron saints
lifted after scorning their meat
when undue particles climb
the slated dimension cluster
to demean the hated tissue
a fibrous entourage
sneaks the slow wipe
encore a tentacle spread
ensures a plated glossary
its undue weight of
water
before the plastic surges hit
the freehand holding templar
mysteries along the great ruin
charges the line’s horizon
to the face of its darkest ledge
