A sky-island of cans and beets
gauze-packed carrots and foam crates
shoe-loops dangling monkey heads
and frog bodies

silk treadmills tugging sucked-out bones
salty wigs on the ship's wheel
dragging dentures of clay
across the seams of waxed wood

skulls of tin printed with clouds
lipstick nostrils staring gears
of a blade's circle
turning dusty sparks
to a planetary core.
