Drum skin reading the sky
tugging threads of armor
over a freckled slab of stone
pool of melted bones
lighting flares in transparent feet
a skyscraper gravestone
where magnets link hands
and flush souls into the depths.

Radiant forehead fractured by blue lines.
Spastic beings shoveling cold subways
to a plastic slide.
Floors falling through the feathery ascent.
Mud turning to glass in a besieged antenna.

Emptiness climbing numbers
up a drifting cathedral
the blueprints in a lightning stroke
the vaulting of imprisoned form
for imprisoned form.
