Worldy Or Other Worldly

Worldly or other worldly medical possessive pronouns Dance fire glow orange on white but darkened ceilings. Frozen water per-cusses and abuses shaped glass structures. Hand to mouth is how the birds eat. Hand to foot disease spreads like children’s nursery rhymes In the fresh cut school lawns sandy and littered With hate speech and disproportioned waxed figures. The future seems so neat and well groomed Until the elastic wears thin and fragile from the old man’s knee socks. Try and you will succeed if all is said and done. Children that smell like children in hot bowls With silver monkey spoons and did I mention all of that wax? Forever forgive. For with each pressure applied to muscle memory. I spill life on life on life and it confuses to eat my life until all is devoured and useless. Grip soft and sure so baby birds purr and prose All of the variable positions a nest has to hope and offer. Much for the price you unpaid in full. Eagle feathers tickle but only in a different and unusual sort of fashion accessory. Go ahead and let the accusations fly or soar above mountains high, Snowy and white with cookie dough. The breeze catches me urging me backwards into you. The scribbles resemble the renaissance of old And bushy stars that glimmer cold in the night time dinner plate. The wax melts. Then what?
