Falsified Integers Maintaining Distance
Halt! which goes the printed cultures
draped upon graphite office gossips
squirming as NEAR to objective juice
as bowling ball hands can affirm.
Always warm unless tattling
, a tale retold as lemon freshness , ,
‘what meant the crabby
mischievous heels robbing
cereal heirs for a chance to
relish in adaptability?????’
gorilla fever blister
hut bereavement STAMP
prig of the transistors. Lines drawn
octilinear forgetful bandage
groups.
Fingerings relent. Lessons carry soiled
subjective meningitis.
On guard! poisonous pool skimmers
bandied about
, ignored elephant glossaries , ,
gobble
gobble
gobble : : it suspects
a knighthood in
the state of offering
glum aphorism :
wither NOT,,, then
bunt!
Noble Realizations as Calm as Canyon Newspaper
hollowed Rorschach vibes
¡Fetch!
aye, aye, aye
& a bottle of purple detergent flesh
pOd
uPoN
pOd
of sink dwellers pondering
the mighty zoot suit scuba diving
machine guns
welcome mat pinnacle
running in place errand
frisbee referee
coalescing pariah
zany patchwork
¡Splat!
nervous tale of two tremolo agitations
burnt to crispy tortilla elegant display
core zeitgeist
muffled tulip
anteaters collide in worn out sheets
breathing metallic bridal gowns
willing assassin
dunking cookies
gingerly peeling
crOp Of shackles
sEa Of banging hEAds
post NO pornographic zithers
¡O!
¡Ouch!
blister blasting beaver brooms
carrying flower pots into sinkholes
watch as the feeding
becomes enormous
prized and obscured
struck!
infinite panic picnic.
sleeve boisterously obscured
sanitized lingering dollhouse
promenade pigeon pierogi
torn capital pressed pimple
Resist!
an olive storm chasing watch.
toward bowling ball chimney
mentholated wrapping paper gum
horn
bald eagle
sophomoric whisper.
pleurisy without snail mail
as worsened training boil.
harpsicord
mountain
semi-transparent.
re-adjustment
treated as folly.
coronation witness cornea.
drugged
cape be soot & sieve.
uncivil!
uneventful!
compassionate twilight
covering stampede.
