Kim Rodrigues Poet Monoku

Four Monokus Protrusion of Eyes and Neck

grievance of sordid hourglass, ears prickling
                                       — eyes creep aloft creepy mask

his contrition false
                     — skin crawls as if consuming hallucinogens

bad enough, silencing of wrinkled smiles
                                     — the time bomb tic-tic-tic boom

stocks made for buffoons
                    — turkey neck gobbled up progenitor’s gravy



                                      3/4/2021

Sara Kendrick March 5, 2021 at 6:59 AM I like the second one. Sometimes a person will say they are sorry when repentance is far from them. Enjoyed reading today. Thanks for your visit to my page. Sara Kim Rodrigues March 5, 2021 at 7:25 AM Thank you, Sara!
