PAPER PURSUIT

 

Crippled crayon scripts in a scrapbook,

Bunch a baby braids, a playa no doubt

Whose hookah lymphnodes

Set upon revolving glassball tables

Which spin in a spherical

Or like lyrically entrapped

Odd, stupefied messhall;

Murderous trance of time

Wack hell out of balance

Questioning yet what a divine

Chime of smoky shapes;

Newborn birdtricks twits twat

Chirps and flirts a lot

In squatting posture.

What prey hast learned today?

"Murderous trance of time

Wack hell out of balance"

 

Some opulent eloquence. You rock!
