Cascades of spider web

upon the murdered commons

thumbtacks in every iris

lassoes around each tackboard body

limbs cut into flowing grass.

Desiccated remnants

that once sang of pure ideals

and now swallow knives.

Bulging thought balloons

from chiseled shit

that communicates error.

Forked tongues frozen

to descending poles

the love that ends in total violence

for stacks of screaming scrolls.
