The Gallery, The Gala, Larry, Part 1

There, mustardseed scatter’d on firm cement
Frank’s sense all but gone as architect-
ural borders take shape: the cloister sports 
Blue-green algae tanks | engineer-BREW
  guard’d by python & html 
Biomedical men GIVE IT | in overt 
Exxon | two two-by-fours square  in threes
Three-D printed modules fit to serve | reptilian feet |
Purpose, _\\r eign on airblade | land | mobility 
Frontier for fuel sources | long estuaries
Deleted | terrestrial features close (enough) | heavy forests
Porous | aspiration making redundant | lungs on a bank 
Tread steady no advice unless it's not your hand lever
Shifting gears | what : anonymous man receives sold
Compensation & homemade spirit | suicide kit | kids & all.
A few flew fewer | arms media call | out (we fall)
<>Clora, Clora,come view what's been made | fish bowl
Have we contriv’d it well? What’d yer think it’d spill
Over cliché onto en|trusted avenues | photovoltaic
Cells | cowr'ing autonomic cars | partial parsed splay
Conversations converge pariah at Digital Laboratory, the e-
State sanctions words You were so tender, then | 
backwards European pulp | parcel in parts | merchant captains
Tall they list | & no phone to clone army exit | fashion
Ozone-graded hum mannerism Hell to 
Helm until fricative F-stop opened up vowel zone | scarecrow 
CDC panic CFCs a homecoming void music | cake 
O Laura, Larry me this aura, lend aurora | cigarette
Facility ; easter greens, northern sky,
No lights, no Clora but address, echo chamber – 
Should it be given | meaning | text pro|verb as from 
A monk’s time sweeping just falls 
Praying midst-a-an-&-w/ text, hard barks,
Vests to hold in endure – endings, 
Morphiniplotic, making too-easy terms nation hooked 
On hides, trademark dress-up bird nest,
Sycophant cardinals | gains on rubberized telephone line
You live in this. May matter | main vein mayday clarity 
In dialogue a-group specifies prediction Species decline.
