Bang flag
Acme anvil dropped on head from a height, ouch Always “and still” after my title fights, bet the house Lit up, shut up security with a look Primed the left hook but shook it off Nobody looks crooked since I took off They’re asking me about bookings Booklets, how to become crooked as My wake…

Stabbing every clock I see, trying to kill time I am half-digested stones masquerading as eaten infants In a malicious god’s wafflepocket Oh! The woes behold the sons and fathers In their roles as opposites, at throats like foxes in famine Why must we battle, what must we master – and fast – to avoid…

Heartful ceremony
Wedding bells tintinnabulating tense and telling, knelling Confetti fell like joyous, gaudy scree upon her queenly veil His fitted suit’s contour-mimicking shoulders, sable, classic Perhaps so, for somebody else; this is, in fact, a tragedy Sadness in wealth seldom seen outside bad drama or bad dreams What cards were dealt that potential queen, on that,…
