While revolution flashes


Wes made a menopausal recommendation to the thousand ablaze.
Others called the replacement office to record the sweat while
several of the protestors forced a big round hormone history.

Flashes of a square, angry multiplex
who aimed the chanting, who made a revolution up.
Such an average face at moonrise racked with hopes and harms.

Not a 1960’s quirky dramedy of the heart.
In this memorial kingdom, the dreamgirls take kicking medicine
and the others budget in the bone of former wilderness.

Ask The Oracle


Precedents are quickly spoiled,
like a cartoon snowball rolling downhill,
a catastrophe guaranteed to keep everyone in stitches.

Predictions are often doomed by someone else's stubbornness.
It seems nothing was learned,
aside from the fact that I was blatantly misquoted.

But how feeble an oracle would I be
if I had no delusional suspicions?
Disappointingly, they are not copyrightable.

Optimistic Summer Weekend


One who starts out early can run a long way
with a baton, on a beach,
on which the high tides have imprinted a natural timeline.

He describes the way the brightest part of the sky
coincides with the closest show of folksy marketing,
but he won't be superstitious in the 7-Eleven.

Secret Cosmic Nun


Sitting on how she thought they are likely
Not speaking out of the official version
Of the collapse of the men, and in a

Mystery of the reputation of
The leadership, another prostitute,
One. There are extraordinarily powerful

Explosions in outer space. Cosmic rays
Are likely not potential culprits, with
A spat that tracked with the Hotel Caribe.

Ministers of Controversy


The implicit promise of changing a story
is to make people notice how dumb it is.
But the group has no inclination to shed its mind.

Like the wallflower dragon whose bullying lawyer
leaked a hot publicity fondue,
winning a palace despite being downgraded

from a pricey crystal nugget to a set of chocolate shoes.
That's one of the perks of ridiculousness.
Everything changes, but nothing draws attention.

Ability of Counterparts


They chase jumping mammals they were paid to dig with.
Serrated insects were tired.  Out after tough sleep,
unearthed a switch that triggered swaps.  Bodies with edges

feathered and springy.  Bonds said to reveal the middle
questions for their ancestors.  They chase jumping mammals.
They were paid to dig with serrated insects; were tired out

after tough sleep.  Unearthed a switch that, triggered,
swaps bodies with edges.  Feathered and springy bonds,
said to reveal the middle.  Questions for their ancestors.

Highest British Trial


His London, as left to the judge, is a compound without peace
Drowning the follow-up fruit of the defense
His wife established in 95% of British crimes, over the years

Norwich women found pleading parole to Nairobi citrus men
As women of Uganda eat U.N.-backed oranges from Somalia
Unusual, though observational, and a Federal issue in London

Gabe, at highest risk, said the judge issued life without acquittal
To men without oranges, due process involving impressive
      pleading
And an ambitious jury of colleagues

Sound of Paying


Sparked the hand a wireless wave, spring-driven
Sparked streaming, in the automated offspring
Sparked Mademoiselle, the miss sound of the gong

Sparked Balance, sparked a complex system of
Honorific sushi traffic jam, sparked tears of parting
Sparked hunger in the morning, four brass kiss

Pictures, poems banished from mechanical forms, mapped
Pockets sparked bank account rent solidarity fast
Sparked the hand a wireless wave, spring-driven

like a waiter’s nightmare at a luau
like plump hands on the honeymoon table
folding up three seconds in eternity

like mixing then folding of cut
salt raised from the lake, leaving
like thin palm rounds scarcer than hunger

like ordering rounds of city in a half-purse moon
like the rolling occasion of unscheduled leaving
like blue smoke standing

Surrealist Land Grab

On Pennsylvania Avenue, a brittle
Richard Nixon enters a hallway filled
with a long series of identical doors

leading to an empty room. On Wall Street,
a giant yellow sunflower illuminates
two entranced young women capping

a plastic Immaculate Conception. While
on Main Street, 99 percent of Americans
living at home are sleeping on taboo ground.
