Driven Home by the Concert
linear loan forced
traps
a fashion
tract
enameled
new irrigation rollers
past any sextants to
cartilage incumbent
insinuations
a burnt symphony
connects worn dissonance
a faded
loop of melody trousers
first sounds resound
different canyons smoky
cantatas roving undone
straining where the frenzy
gives operetta barging
the hard strategy
daylight revenge
a sudden wisdom
no translucence boogie
from the curvature scanners
the morphine tenant
dumps a consonance freak
hostage
against the listeners present
and set the tumult from their
balding tympanist inanimate
centrifugal camphor
at histories for the next titanium swizzle
the sending metronomes
faded
other polyrhythms
imploding wisdom
a riff in crescendos lost
the spin-off veneer
sizzling reprisal listeners
never a marginal key
past traction hemming the sky screen
overindulge clavichords
while a wider ear diluted innuendo
Reflecting on the Future’s Past
gone brassiere
riffing the last pavilion
its controller
grounded sky in enzyme flourish
the nonchalance legation
knows (brink included)
effects protruding
unstocked congress
the isolate
gravestone
iconic supplication
( )
alien schemata
possible monetary detonator
lighthouse resolution
the noisy panorama appetizer
delivering
commotion retching
before a protruding schoolhouse breath
tensing decorator pabulum
to right blockaded preface
full or fruitless
( )
shrapnel bough
keeps many bursters bent
past an idling verb
a lowered patois
good vowel alongside
workhorses songbirds
screaming, bitten
“a verbal pandemic with an ovoid specular”
slowly
turned
encyclical
Stuck in Human Trafficking
deflation plastered
ombudsman follow-ups
as thoroughfare sturgeon invigorated briar
flayed adjutants
garbled past basilica jacks
not rooted in the motorboat
valence returns
pituitary facings
turbulent between padding cottages
sullen fellow, concrete protuberance
sly timetables
the respite logarithm arrived
where the filtered make legacy babes turn castle
( )
coned samosa threesomes
report kangaroo monsoons
ramped with monosyllables
northward
salutations humored illuminati
rumor abduction
gathered regulations implosion
bandit terminus
casually semantic
the code stationer
then expostulated
that atlas fulcrums
eluded bland clients and humored bridging
( )
neurosis junkies
benefit theatres learning
legacy
collapse
a guildhall mechanism
spotted lost pitchforks
where the backbone vesper
behind an octopus mascara
enhances a sonic wallflower
from shallow fastening
to the railroad’s thriller
milking the portly mandarins
Vernon Frazer’s new poetry collection is Gravity Darkening.
