Never Mind the Beasts

( +speaking+) a voice

reading neither film nor mirror. the lake a question.

the gift a symbol. among the sparks. with thick eyes descending.

fascination for fools. of dried apples. a sack in the woods.

with thick eyes descending.

on the march. cowbell. speaking in mutation.

a palladium. mechanic on call. slogan raw. with thick eyes descending.

skull on ice. neptune’s moons. cuffed to a question grafted to landscape.

a juggler. with thick eyes descending.

and marrow. a tool for descending. a belch from the uberworld.

reflux on wheels. with thick eyes descending.

waking: a gesture. gap notes. thermo cow with churning stomach.

if asked we were dusty. with thick eyes descending.
