Blankness Reflected (Part 2)

beautiful inspired contrived artifice it’s sensation subconscious sucked past excoriation reality thick gelatin soup top curdled hot skin strips slipping scalded skin, shadow of Moloch still in the room and on the brink of sidewalks, talk to talk to talk to talk and the interlocking meantime teeth of the sky of toothy metropolis, teeth of toothy babies, violent spectacle gimmick image we the pregnant toothy presidents, our presence can you say that that suffices with omnipresent hesitant snake-tongues strangling, distraction speakers amplifying distracted half-born thoughts aborted-absorbed by strangling subconscious void mind inclination closed eyes vacuum void pupils. fingernails scratch attached to hands attached to sprawling nothing named, echoing, generating rank fragrant impact, spilling inky void into perceptive orifices only to arrive spilling spinning shivering shaking quivering screaming define me, blind spot fragments filled by toothy want to sharpen echoes to digitize images for the world of we of want of we, teeth in plaster, skies in eyes and symbols and images and symbols in images and worlds in words and words in words away from worlds in worlds and words and words and words and blankness and blankness and blankness and blankness and blankness and blankness reflected.
