a kimono and a painted face,
delicate hands pouring tea and sake
with a draping sleeve, this
is what turns men on.
...
Spiralling like DNA,
the infinite universe
spills coincidences upon humanity
...
makes old men of trees:
fragile, hollow and bald
the scent of their swagger
brisk in the air
...
The joker's fury
couldn't be contained
by a quiet movie theater.
...
she birthed them, and now must nourish them
five mouths that mew their tiny hungers
ten eyes, ten ears and twenty paws
each tearing at her teats painfully
...
Turned
like a fist
closed to the fingers,
I waited and watched
...
thick, acrid, and psychedelic:
an emergence is felt,
butterflies tickling the brain
its pull magnetic
...
