and I liked it
everything now is
language : fat deli
pickle jars : cot myrtle
and bog : hot
moonbeam in the mouth
compost speckling off
a last sputtering minute : down
out a ripped up puff jacket :
tickling the larynx : feathers
and sparkling : a quiet : is
finally garbage : ready
to fly away
welcome to the dark side
energy good
you can eat with my face
