Libido Scienda Poem by B. Sven Telander

The boy drinks a phantasmal
liquescent homunculus
of manhood;

liminal gnosis distorts
the decaying vortices
of his rapid childhood.

Some telluric martinet
calls for chthonic
galvanic accoutrements

and the cajolery
of a rawboned moonscape
bring forth an asuric plan.

Vapid demons cheer
and imbibe
hyperbolic laughter,

rippling
unconscious thunder
like snakes of pain

socket-swimming
through alligator
skulls of memory.
