serpent mound

under the serpent mound prudent
demons (NOT monsters) preserve the
nuts and 
endosperm meant for
later day 
postmen to deliver
when the time is
all too convincingly ripe

sextile plants reduce raw items in relative productive haste

Bird mouth on the brain sells 
plump unstately bucked up 

matters of actual o-
bligatory occurrences at 
Owl's Creaky Bridge where
forageable items can 

spawn like people squeezing 
elf-aware and clammy chowdered 

clown adults from 
rubes off courting blots of 
nightingale PM firenze
crushed and all mixed up be-

between a frequent
moving stream of

freebies wheeling in a 
west virginian's mother mar-
ried pupward to a
shapeless clumping mob or timely 

hunk stoned sober old and sentient fac-
tory molding

silver fish resigned to meet-
ing parties all aligned and 
drawn from quarters pound-
ed into minds repeated over 

bendless queasy headed eggs a-
top the Falling Garden Wall.

grind a way to live

wood 
that the river should have known
could change was near 
to         where the bottle 

bound 

for slow boat sound-
ing deep water 
released its first long monologue 
under  a  brand  new  sand  name

mauled language is arbitrary

(1)
ugly grey banister 
language stung 
all the 
subtle Belgian
bursts of 
grainy blue Gina's 
Bengali grain 
triangles 

   (2)
a high-
strung bus-
y arbiter is 
bustling a-
round in 
search of in-
tegral gris-
ly Istanbul 
bytes and
guilt-free wry 
rung climb-
ers of the 
Liberty Tree

  (3)
singularly rusty 
syringes some-
how re-
main de-
void of dust

inherently errant AND evil

The cursing blank 
pages held
traces  of
knavish hooded

knights riding

forward for the
sake of
scum un-
godly kings.

chalice(s) in wonderland

nine         of 
cupside         gold-
en dairies         married 
silken maid-
ens down to 
squeezing         milk men pleas-
ing         through the
only 
partly 
wide  and  open  castle  doors

#1

all stolen vehicles must be
parked in
unmarked caves many
yards away from any
kids playing with
match box gaso-
line wankers

#1
eroding hooded in-
fantry hounds endure 
rear entry neutron edific-
ation

     #2
ninety hidden round-
heads defied the 
nations's fourth and 
vinyl deity

     #3
handy indentured Randy
hoed the feud from his
rooftop redoubt

     #4
though yearning for
funds i found
knot butt frauds in my
yard

     #5
tiny fading freon
nodes adore yon
daring radon onions

     #6
reading frothy innu-
endo is only
funny when the
rhino's red hooves have
little or no foundation

     #7
not so ornery
fiends hand out in-
ordinate amounts of
Henry's once hoarded
fortune

the gift of theft

Eight 
hundred 
indie 
fringe godfath-
ers stole thunder from 
forty frayed dandies who thought they 

were today's trendy 
answer to 
tonight's tiny fright-
ened finger 
toads but in fact were 

only dreadnought friends 
of the hidden thrifty fudge in-
ferred from a rougher runty third 

of the grounded ruddy roundheads 
remaining defi-
ant 'til notified not to 
be 

         and 
to return to fraught infight-
ing at their always 
          well funded freehand orgies.

loss from a yawn #732

when the seven-ten 

row's worth a throw of the 
rice then the spice may be 

loaded with sauce from some 

bones rolling slowly up-
hill to a pinhead too 

nice not to topple
