Re-Inventing What Drifts


in the real world postmortem before funeral
mourning over, inquests could begin appealing middle-classes
get this done in 45 minutes can't we photographer's studio

I time start consciously coiffed edgy dandy sharp
needs to become a big tent just re-inventing
into the gutter of anxieties stay open and present

increases engagement enhances decision-making
what he was doing at the end just to get on with life
burnout resiliency it drifts paying attention on purpose

Those Plucky Ambiguities


An ambiguity is a funny truism,
in that its deconvolution is eloquently unknowable.
Just study this: What lives on pablum,

can't smell color, evades horizons,
could win a plurality of the unpopular votes,
and according to a spy on Earth,

you usually see it playing baseball with real orioles?
And by the way, when is an enigma not enigmatic?
When it's a riddle.

Long Visit Promised


A peculiar justification for the spread of plant species:
It's sightseeing.
They changed their last islands long ago,

in the Darwin of their migrating years.
When they controlled the ground they could go anywhere
and be greeted as sisters.

Gushing down between highland meadows,
tourist plants happened upon the capital
and at last set roots in their busy ancestral soil.

To New Arrival


Visitors will have places to start. Bacteria occupy
the black sandstone cliffs, carrying broken glasslike
ice cleats. The views have re-ordered the lake bottom.

Visitors will have to gut the city for stained glass
to be filed smooth like deadly icicles.
Drugs won't be the only attraction this year.

Visitors will have piled up clear ice plates
potentially suited for window glass.
Weather willing, you can see boulders on Wednesday.

However Numerous Mix


A dandy present for plankton birthdays is plankton.
A hint of an androgynous Cinderella,
scrubbing fossils excavated from a fiasco.

Half-scale sea monsters in database robes appear
with disastrous predictions from their insurer.
Earth's employees, shackles thrown, reside in phantom shells

as quietly as numbers in a cyber gargoyle.
The sophisticated plankton millions
release a giant anthem of whispers in half canon.

Winter Melting Language


The glorious winter night begins.
Moons swing from side to side.
Brilliant Venus is still with us.

The earth’s crust is rebounding.
The accelerated melting of the glaciers
coincides with the onset of warming.

It’s a real language that copies
what’s on the showing.—Mathematical formulas
made of anything except of flesh and bones.

Dust of Genes


A comet swings around the sun.
As the comet heats up,
it will spew dust.

It is flexible, in slight ways
to better accommodate the kind
of repetitive history tools.—

An opportunity to explore the body’s markers:
The genes that are switched on or off.
—An attempt to understand the unknown.

Cylinders of Beams


A key that may unlock antiquity
was engulfed by lava, destroyed,
and turned into carbonized ash.

The body has already delivered details
of historical rendezvous.—
New pictures are about to be taken.

New beams convert metal into material.
—A technique that does not obstruct light.
—A technique that can capture the sun & the pulses.
