Short Maws Poems

Sun rising
Over the rampant seas
Clouds opening to reveal
The armies mustering 
Preparing for death and decimation
They march steadily forward
Into the maws of 
Misguided patriotism
As those they love 
Wonder what 
And why...

Xanthous vipers crumble and
Copulate on pallid bursts
Of violent ash and vapid sand
Drunken blows to swollen bones
Macabre and salty, bitter and grand

While wolven maws abuse brash lips
Gluttonous passion
Simmers on pendulum hips

Thrashing crests of poignant skin
Fevered, gasping, blissful sin...

When Ma got her social security check

    To the Cripple Creek casinos she'd trek

         Coins passed through her greedy paws

             To feed the slots' gaping maws

                  Leaving Pa peeved wanting to wring her neck

 I'm in the pickle mine
            Think

This morn mine palate
      In concert with
         Mine maws
      the empanadas
         hern dulce
Mine thank you waved
        She winked

         This noon
  Whilst enjoying the
    Spring's cool wet
         the naiad

         the naiad
            think

       Up mine hands go
      as with mine knees

      down mine feet go
      with very fast step
    
                bang 
                bang
                bang
   the neighbors can hear
       my heart's pulse
      through mine feet

Mine eyne and maws open
         with jubilation

Cast not to me the rose colored
          hearts poets blurt

      or thoughts of coolness
       from Appalachian falls

          or drinks that fog
              mine mind

        Just fastened hands
            bowed heads
              and maws
   to Jehovah God Almighty
                  call

When the skydiver leapt from his plane

     What he saw below to his great disdain

          Were 'gators flexing their jaws

               Expecting grub for their maws

                    To pursue this sport he must be insane

[A] DONE DEAL

[A] defeated disgusting man this is.
Disallowed defense because of his disease.
[A] Done deal to compete with the Dogs!
Distribute dinner to him as a better eat of hog maws.

Do not deliberate this as a lost.
[A] Done Deal depletes the prognosis.
Dis Dell do. 
Hair her head to...
[A] Done deal the truth!

Prehistoric island beast,
Drifting in the ocean,
Heavy amidst a sun-starred sea,
Dreamclouds hover kissing ridges,
Pouring over cliffs,
Shadowed maws in sunlight threaten
Lips of sand on mouths of bays,
Silent surf littorally nibbling,
Eating beasts in slumber,
Mist-hazed horizon dictates time,
Waiting places Poseiden smiles,
Distance closes over time;
Distance closes all of time....

In cage, box and vault,
behind the well locked door;
he held his earthly treasurers,
counted by the score.

Dust covered purple amethysts,
lice laced parrot maws,
aged harem beauties;
lay on cushions bout the floor.

Each once had shone like starlight,
within the earthen core,
and danced or flown in far off lands,
which were their homes no more.

All tawdry now, decline their fate,
decay hung in the air,
but on he sat in darkness;
pondering his precious fare....
