heads crown

the perfect man enlightened and blond


shoebox Messiah

that last sutra

turned putrid


Lord Antifish preaches to lost socks


heads crown

through sandy loam

the kindergarten crop


working the sketchy street: compost boys


I, the last Romanov –

my swan-steeds

dry their wings


the nurse finds a vein, silver coins flow


space operas

twisted into

my pocket square


her toenail subscription: deadbeat debt


we’re all jolly pirates

we fly

a tumor flag


eyes roll back Grace sprints toward creation


school lunch:

a ration of

edible deity


the king of Earth frowns – dank skunky beer


wasp waist leash,

two tail wags, then comes

the bandersnatch


snarling low, his angel wolves pupate


stacking godphones

at the zip stop

centipede girl
