The Ocotillo Invasion
Utah cringes as hacked Ocotillo turn carnivorous,
spitting psychoactive pollen into the atmosphere,
dusting entire subdivisions.

The victims wander,
searching eagerly for where sunlight is strongest.
A part of their backbrain
gets tickled by the sun
at an angle our old pituitary...

Salt Lake City, Jeckle and Hyde
It’s an unexpected pleasure
Coming out of the mountains at night
When suddenly in the valley below

Trade Center rubble undaunted by danger
Nine-Eleven just another reason to please,
