Behind the Eternal Fringes

The unpopular 
express 
their popular strings
to the garrison, contained
within 
safe boundaries, there,
their thoughts 
pirouetting words 
hung, 
the black beetles 
shine 
like exotic 
fresh water 
pearls strung 
waving like 
green peas shelled 
nonchalantly cast 
into boiling pots 
not of their own making 
in the soup of 
the fifth estate 
boiled well,
swallowed 
and regurgitated,
muses

the pods left wide open 
floating in the nowhere
like emerald boats without sails

blinking 
internal, 
forever behind

the eternal fringes
