A Contorted Understanding

what singular bosh
to see points drip from a nail
a starry snapshot dropped in baskets everywhere

the missing snag that inspired riddles of absence
like the Silver Beetles cutting different numbers
but absence is far more involved than that

the edge behind discoveries
stars are essential backgrounds
but microbes even more

Their Valued Jungles

Are we to believe that monkeys rafted to a new continent
to repair cars? Who would cross the ocean
just to tunnel under the Panama Canal?

But it's in the meaning of "Volkswagen,"
said the modern primate unintentionally. Related point:
We believe we have discovered marijuana or Tijuana,

it's unclear which. It may not matter.
But the vegetation is at least $22 million years old,
and rigged with the teeth of ancient diesel.

The Accompanied Curiosity

we've heard expressions of the purpose
a ravishing poster of the Netherlands
the unnamed surrounding

to bike around a swath of lifelong landfills
meteoric cars popping over the xenophobia miles
the undeniable level

roads everywhere, working some fresh befuddlement
the unaccompanied questions

Tumbleweed in Vegas

The hairy weeds cascaded downtown in unprecedented swarms,
where they were spotted shopping, drinking,
and singing karaoke.

One aristocratic tangle haunts the Honeymoon Hotel.
Another drove a Maserati right into the local supermarket
(to get a carton of dry milk, obviously).

Looking like scarecrows at the beach,
they have taken over the technology and homes of humans.
But relax; the Lucky Dollar has experience with profligacy.

a mirror overhangs, or movies overlay,
these climbing bogs that drink the stolen earth;
it must negotiate a common target for thieves

a bolt of energy stuttering between squared pillars
translates an expanding camera language

it is probably harder to see any formula here
than to view "Rear Window" from a moving car
with massive electric fans for a screen
