Packing for a Weekend Trip (9/14/2024)
soaking slofas slofa-ing slow and drilling
dialed into a mini-maximum mothball
balled up and drawled my tongue across the cross
standing near the highway, my way burning
holes in my tires, my feet beefing with beets,
her breath hairy on the door, opening at speech
hired for its ability to release grease, geese
back at my windshield, selling me diaries of
clams and barnacles, clacking on the stone mill,
snaking around the torso like a morbid mountain,
mouslins & voggins & skobbles & toppbles
around a round islet, around a round eyelash
around a round pirate, around a round musket
around a round triscuit, around a square muxwax
wild whisperings worth caramel candies worth shoving
a crown down the throat of a cannery
ponds made of cans and metal shavings
aluminized the ice, aluminized the grief and grost
grinding down a brake until the jig is up
grinding through my spine until I keep waking up
CAN'T AN'T FL'AL'T PL/AS'O'MOS'IS
slip slap slivers silver Mr. Smithers, solid scissors
cut chilly chopping chucks of cheesebleef chuckled
ceased creased sneezed heaved the gold blank reef
bursting like a lemon teasing a napkin, no one was
weed wacking, watching a sarcasm chasm out the canyon
can it be a closed clork quark dander crandom?
simple scintillation, oscillations rolling over asphalt
roadkill milk --- quality eggs thrown into the bucket
and spilled for fabricated links of plastic sword hilts
shellac rubbing on my acne, my face grumbling lacking meat
blown glass blown black blown shad blown quack quack
cords of frolid frolics dold and dialaudid-dodic lauded
for humming hymnals beneath grim firm candle bells
handyman dumping out tanks of gel for show & tell
