Bundles of crumpled metal branches
swinging from a sad chin,
stars on the elbows frothing,
a cracked knee, a stabbed heel,
decentered head throbbing
in blood without gravity
beneath the whirlpool skin.
Register of chipped fingers
and antique shirts,
glass bulb of examining eyes
a ribbon over the hillside.
Shelves of painted bread
and packaged icicles.
Napkins of verbiage
done up in a cream puff wrapper.
Spokes that hold the tabled wheel
smoked and greasing a pig's ear.
Minnows exploding across
the silver reinforcements,
a fountain room waffle iron
printing graves on a sheet of salt.
