Squirrel Shoulders
The Size Of His Head
Wait A Minute!
That's A Big Head
Thighs The Size Of 2 Heads
And More Than 50% Tail
By Length, But All
That Extra Length Is
80% Fluff.
Let's Not Get Into
Too Many Details.
But Those Hands!
So You Don't
Call Them Hands...
But Those Bionic
Biomechanical
Marvels Just
Adjust To Suit
What Ever Incredible
Task Might Occur
On A Whim.
Looking Sideways
Both Ways At Once
Catching Motion
Holding...
Eating A Nut.

ill never get used to
the numbness that tinges away at everything
every movement
a rusted nusiance
as if the words that make up my reality are too much to bear
there are no creaks
or technical things to tweak
because i am still
unfortunately, a biomechanical thing
instead there are aches
pains
issues that, like the rain
always streaming down my face
struggles to catch the hint and go away
despite my attempted ignorance though
do you think my erosion shows?
rest your toes on the tree
xylem and phloem flush away a bad week
syllables keep coming in threes
wonderment of Fibonacci
on the twenty first datilla
rest The Annunaki
spherical plateau of comfort
cosmic vanilla on the breeze
tickled palms by The Ohm Tree
giggling majesty
powerful foci of consciousness
witnessed by me
I traversed the great hall
dancing to traffic
elasticated like gum, boings a 5 dimensional sun
where should have been walls there was fun
instead of plastic there was love
instead of choice
her beautiful voice
a biomechanical song
exactly exact, ebbflow plus something else
I call it Infinity
but that's just a guess.
