ULTRASONIC EYEWITNESS

 

to rathskeller sedition. Ranking fiend
could hatch other wraiths. Scatology
to whiten the innocent duodenum.
Rat caricature, tasting of thunderbolt?
Stammering legates plant effervescing virgin

eyeopener at the telecast needlework
singalong to whack pell-mell
any lothario breechcloth daring thrust.
Must harpoon bell-bottom yield

with morality suds. Our cosmetic
repository offers lantern or lectern

sedatives for mudslung cellar wrath.

 

 

 

STUNG BY SUITS

 

from honeyless patrons
(despite clapboard mask),

bee salesman
smashes his cherished
glass plaque
and climbs into ossified

volcano, where
repressed cuneiform
separates from butterfly ash
to buzzsaw impending
ice writs.
 

NEUROTIC TENNIS

 

without linesman's
democratic eye.
Yet gimpy genius
would teach you
how crackling electricity
goes turquoise, mid-

phrase, how spear
becomes cloud.
Lightning, spooked,
will shirk this Gimpel
fueled by love's

unflinching.
But who will pay?
That yell, if not

imperiled, impelled
by fluid iron paradise,

must meet its cage.
