The Modern Alchemer
Biting his lip over a life-gilding admix, boiling over in a pot Fulla gaps and holes, gnawed, corroded unto Winter stick-brittleness Adding hydrogen sulfide from a slack, potbellied sack labelled sugar Sticky, stickaroundy egg stink in the lab like Humpy Dumpty fell bad Like Heaven’s rebel angels crashing flamewreathed and ravaged Into the face of…
