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.

Oilman’s State Small


A cluster of attorneys spread terror
but no major divorce proceedings
have been recorded. Temblors

rejected momentum, enjoying…
whatever. America’s magnitude,
blunted and rattled the judgement

of an oil tycoon. In a defensive
conference he said, “Islamic earthquakes
paid my rejected wife $1 billion.”
