Animal

Animals in top hats, Ride bicycles en road, Spoked wheels and pedaled spats, Round about, in ornamental spode. Animals in monocles, Spectate in obeisance, Cuffed by inked chronicle: Renascence-linked complacence. Animals in Model Ts, Toot along en route, To queue below burlesque marquee, Bloating bruit by gloat and brute. Animals in suits, Sustained by entree manner, Tasting morsels, cheering lutes; To labor, bond and banner. Animals in petticoats, Puffed in crinoline, Corsets sweep beneath the bloat, Ensure the meal’s unseen. Animals in linen, Lain in duvets, eider down, Sunken pelt a skin had been in, Before its fur had come to town. Animals in animal, Adorned disguise of dermis, Woven threads of blastemal, Posture vermin with a vermis. Animals in animals, Piquant bones to gnaw, Ascetic starving cannibals, Feed on creed and law. Animals in groups, Extensions of the self, Lain in egg to cracked coops, Atop a thrifted shelf. Instead of rounding out our edges, To conform our shape to objects, End the heed, the empty pledges, Be animal: love and sex.
