Fiery Children Swarming Summer-infested Fields
The white north plain swayed like feral hair on
a newborn horse The savage skin draped over muddy terrain with
elephant steps The tanned pimples of my faces squeezed out of
their stretchy cocoons
The translucency of the acidic sky glazed the mist like an
urban murderer The impish sandhills were non-existent among
the lush graveyard The cragged tombstones loomed like a dead
buffalo above my windowsill
Moles hurriedly dug their way to the splashing refreshment
of grey oxygen As my teeth glided along dirt and dwindled insecticide
The transcendent caveman told me to discern my embarrassing
feet
Squiggling out of the atmosphere, the sparrows cawed at the
blue wind The illuminated foxes ran in front of the sweaty,
tugging oil well Why did the slant-mouthed Canadian goose leader
paint with such furry reds
The serpentining pain that strikes like javelins throughout
my wet intestines Grabs a hold of me with purple, unrelenting
hands popping of warm, bubbling veins The squirming jellyfishes
hissed at me like vestigial amoebas
This is my fleshy aorta that ululates like a bilocating cicada
These belligerent children impale me with their Pancho Villa
weaponry The pale natives hone this land as if it were their
unexpecting mother.
