How
How these Things are taken
first the Females
cored and shaken
raked over coals
traced from fresher days
blundering through hours
of forgery
and scouring
for tastes of sweets and sours
pretending martyrs pay
blue from arrests
bored climbs obsessed
caught by changes and smacked
while dragged out of sacks
then shot in the back
paring appropriate knacks
with submissions that lack
any worthwhile fact
greedy dark fee’s
forced to useless knee’s
furthering samples
feeding and ample
blinding botched care
posing bare
whispering to causes that share
the tastiest fair
no motion to pain
if even a hair
dirty lost fiends
stealing all scenes
sharpening the stings
of overdone pleases
rare privileged drawn out body teases
carefully listen
they’re cutting shine’s line
dropping the screaming passengers
to an unwise sublime
fallen away bothers
young dense fathers
digging up potholes
eating rinds
sounding the chimes
that raise those clowns ridiculous dreams
eligible to diseases
they were all this time
bloody dares
calling to order
drawing a losing way
up the road’s broken shoulder
trips made only to fall
upon the chests of tiny men
who hate to love gall
personal reasons
to murder for treason
this is the season
to bless the spin
strapped to their backs
stepping in sin
let the flailing hunt begin
tracking the crackling break
to the head of a pin
of the craziest slender
an armless time vendor
over skies
on top of grass
touching tender
too harmless
a pretender
seamless
through all attempts to confuse
all from a window
they blocked with cement
keeping you from the view
unthinkable songs
that kissable longs
reminiscent of class
nobody remembered to ask
can you stay for a task
one night with me an unmask
swallowing numb candy
the years finest brandy
searching for a sky in the sand
a diamond being squeezed to death
in an unabashed hand
