Topic: Birthday of Cristina Stamper (August 11)
Form: Vertical Monocrostic
woke up to a full day but i can tell the sun's only come half bright
on the cemented pavements and shameless statements of the
buildings towering high.
lately pacing shadows of motion
with squeezing tight objectives
lay themselves amaze to stamper so sluggishly unexpected
and rest their bodies inside
these big red rectangular double decker boxes
that commence to shudder along
with a sense of dying, clinical combustion;
hence to be condensed;
surrounded but all alone;
in the city that's countlessly counseled;
'Et in Arcadia Ego'
so I walk out of her door,
scramble my pockets for some cigarette paper
whilst standing under the warmth
of the dormant electric heater
finally pick up my deck and wheels
spark up in time to ride
with a rustic shallow breath
the barren concrete comes to life
as this skater rides on over
i'm just waiting to be swallowed whole
'cause even here death appears
in Skater Arcadia
A Skeleton face down in the mud,
Surrounded by smiles that
sway through the trees,
beauty in death; swinging eternity.
Digestion of all, marrow and blood
laughing, crying, shivers and smiles;
crawling among bones
the insects and their infecting clones
And here comes the flood, a washer machine
An endless love
swishing and swashing, making it clear
sins of all, we hold them dear
Applauding branches and those loud thuds
growing on the bank in golden flower buds
the cawing and crowing, couldn't stamper their fright
of that glowing Phoenix, so gorgeous in flight
