Long flat-roofed ovoid tents
with square entrances.
Collapsing units roamed
by fresh souls,
their wedding patter.
Cooler's carousel of wet smiles
grateful for the electric hand.
Banquets of American metals
glass after glass of water and mercury.
Little toads eat the crust of the planet.
The gilded frame of half men
bleeding yellow paint.
Plaster grimaces and fallen-out
follicles scattered on the covered couches.
The paperwork of careful thieves
protoplasm staked to wooden mushrooms
guts in a yarn of air travel.
Passageways of heat-bled light
feeding hills of glory
in the depths of earth's orbiter.
Little towns of children with lobster eyes
crying knives' intent of the equator.
Vinyl spinning on a bloodied hand,
reflected rays tabled and branching aisles.
The literature of the killing camps
clone-printed on butterfly blue.
