Liturgical instruments like devices obstetric
Electric sex drill
Like a scarred mandrill nose eked out in ribbed steel.
Bracing for megatherion
Bloodied ritual participants naked, cringing
Braves who draw steel fall screaming
A demon malingerer, batwinged
Apporting through bored ceiling.
Thalassidion thrun down God’s blood
Affronting the Empyrean, thence flood
Appearance of idiot comets, tailed like red-billed tropic birds
Vomiting forth noxious office, nostril-knuckling knees-buckling
Bee’s honey colour off-mustard orb an Ur-orpiment expanding
Enveloping the land, a vast hand’s altering shadow
Causing a new earth to be born, strange new Adams.
Last domesday tally; dome fate wyrd taken mawley alongside
Rocks to which Paul affixed his King’s church
Rocks whichwith Saul punished blameless Stephen
Whipping liths cast by sinless heretics.
Tarsus by way of Tartarus
We are all of us Tantalus
In waters ever unsettled, swinging for forbidden apples
Corrupt to a man, not a seed salvageable the land wide
Blasphemous books handed down from the ambry by hairy, taloned hands
Genocidal gospels, smoking world black and red pied
We decode, alas late, the prophecy that was Atlantis.
