Trip microscope Materiality
Contractual chemical obligations
reserve right-of-way jean jackets
gasping for wispy olive loafing insights
: rAgE : rAgE “: & baskets cornering
NeTwOrK grasshoppers >>>

pissing commentaries

Demented permutations herky jerky artichokie [
fumigate your
tailpipe ,,, ] musical interludes
& distracted rattraps
pierce the knobby circles.
First Unendurable Papercut of the Season
Premise of century minotaur information kiosks
blinding stucco executive crash test dummy
unified by policy chicken spacers. Relegated panels
notarized between visual infantile sensors. Split
parched narrative glue traps crowned by tirade
swifter though gangly in heap of associative spree.
- millennium data bar blade
- incomplete cylindrical conviction route
- downfall of monumental funeral
- business puke incomplete list of manic atrocities
- ! –
Figures of pathological duvets
crumble guts & all
peevish layer upon fleeting layer
each pleasure lava combustible.
Adage Abusing, [At Least] a Wounded Nerve
Maniac whistle hollow ring finger
: this [BliSS] Anger subtracts
conquered citizens of
diatribe : ,
heard ecstatic Dante’s infernal Racket
[bell, court, penknife, revenge] - - -
locking hand that reveals
heart monitor excess.
leeching without LeaVe of Absence
, the betray’d warship lollipop
/ Dust, rabbit, habit,
All YE vapid dimensions & balms
rendered HeaLing PowerS w/o shieled
visionary tambourine glowing.

Still,
who amongst the stone face
cutting benches queued up
behind the candelabra
sneaky feeling machine
DOMINATION [. It’s damnation
whiz
reveal’d OuR swallowing
mists of tangy gratitude
, weeping
ShotgUN prancing
dancehall gambit.
Really, sharing, bleeding, & slept
among the violent shallow banks
upon which fashion heels itself into
oblivion.
