The fan the archway
The cyclist careering between the two long poles
Compound it Browning there can be but one Sordello
A theft from the open carport the missing spacer
Theories of imbroglio to satisfy the vices

Back to basics the seamless denial
Urgent purposes amid the turgid filibuster
Oh this accretive logic this euphemism

Daily conquests recurrent deficits
Shuffle through the leaf litter
Kicking sand rife with coquina
Into the mouths of the aquacultural pools

Aspirins always aspirins
You can’t get away from the bandaid solutions
But friendship’s friction sliding into the afterlife
Regretful submission to the blind driveway
Puts one sharply in mind of

Because you know death

Surreptitious groveling
Beneath the sheltering tarpaulin
Of liens gables various financial instruments

Out some verbs in there y’all
Make out the sweet spot in the roiled edition
Smile your way through the seething imperative
And clever pages lift from the catafalque
Rose petals broadcast upon the portico
Behind which the sacrifice is taking place

A little snake dipped into a hole in the turf
Quicker than you can say
Does this smell like chloroform
The hole of perfect little snake diameter
