DIADEM

Askance sidelong
fodder for the Insignificant
Other:
the skies done up in rivets
a bowdlerized saga
dripping
salience (3. Springing, jumping: salient tree toads).
Illiquid my honey is
viral.

A burrowed dawn
flanges the ear tunnel.
Far off, I heard it weeping,
the carnal plane
drops Nerf flechettes.

Wake me when I'm gone,
bury these brutal Triscuits

& the worried flames

& the dancers with monkey faces
they play the catgut
the liquidated moon slicks
all along some
thrumming viscus.
