Slabs of agony and hilarious effort,
squashed into a thin tube
like a cartoon rag.

Yards of cotton sprawl
over hologram rugs.
Porno plays on the surface of a lake.
A tree turns into a pole.
Mind wakens in the rock
great peaks go up over the forests.

Balconies with snowball eyes
peering through toasted railings.
A cell and a small rack of bones
window high up and open.
