A platform of ice
deformed by sunlight.
Spindly crucifix body
spine glued to an icicle.
A screaming long-toothed mouth
buffeting concrete.

Steamroller's glass cylinder
portraying cut hands.
Thin white walls flaking
on the continent.
A tunnel that meets
the underside of a drum.
Winking fiber optic lava
in the halls of earth.

Sanctuaries of cornstalk walls
naked in grey pits of water
rain cracking the high leaves
in the quaking outskirts.

Severed tendons
that gush like reproduction
against a bulletproof sky.
