O Cafergot

O Cafergot, O Cafergot,

Schwen bonfer droun quon dulem fleen!

O Cafergot, O Cafergot,

Plen moctor ope proguli sheem.

Oo gefteneize plon austentine,

Auxibu longo schimu phleist.

O Cafergot, O Cafergot,

Egrotiock plondufiet streige.

O Cafergot, O Cafergot,

Gefarble entwarpunoth seidge!

O Cafergot, O Cafergot,

Twen goncad whoopien chocti.

Periberon exconpelar,

Asmedgie tecrapeneflaus.

O Cafergot, O Cafergot,

Plen moctor ope proguli sheem!

poem || Lawrence Upton

speaking asleep

out of town

before the incense mob

luminous moments

a neon sign's

accelerating silence

the whole view

numbed in thought

clairvoyance perhaps

soft video

all things paper

tossing magnificence

shaping pages

barely the entirety

the possibilities combine

part heard

future neutral perspectives

outline quiet iridescence

empty

vibrating

verbal

mercury with a smile

incredible performances

of perception

streaming the bluster

imagine time a wonderful story

written

pushing into death

natural causes

seeing early versions of people

scattered

precedents for words visible

3 poems || Felino A. Soriano

from antiphonies & spectrums

toward stability

earliness is isolation

           a gift of openness, improvised

routine the language of self rewrites

the

           contours of

                                   silhouetted shape, contextual mirage of reaching for

sensation

onto tongue or

from tongue of

hanker’s eventual

purpose

                                                                    the

                                                     aggregation of timelines

needn’t desire full awakening

or altered space to retrieve

desire from prior days’ ongoing

pauses

               pulses

thus

persuasion

interrogates the twirling seconds enveloping personal

affirmations amid morning’s elevated

meaning

with wandering the hand must collocate connections

answering sedentary calls of calligraphy

each rendition of ink

lodged or longing                              (either, specific)

looking into sustained contours

the

riddle of spare space

onlooking wanting to engage

with more so the body than

bodiless connections hiding

within syllables’ vacuum

of insincere silences

autotype

the butterfly drums in strumming methodologies

                           the plural                                            imposes

                                                                       plagiarized material

as

                    the subsequent

sedentary

                                                           watchers might/ or-will

return

to the stringless dances of unoccupied

deliveries of articulating angles

                                       with wing-on neon juxtaposition with a January

rhythm of moving-toward-an-attempt-at-staying insulated

the mimesis is evidentiary, purposeful

uncontrolled adulation in the echoing entirety of an alphabetical

arsenal of hoping

toward emblems . . .

Humpty Teases Meat

Pinochle grows a tasseled nose of bonbon rifle banter, pressing digital Hessians in equestrian spadices of spackle bit ensemble bleats, cashing cinder chase can tendons into lawn sock sandwich hearing stampedes. Half lunge into elevated nature’s pendulous egg shell sloop, lacing silly moss with selfish gerunds gone cataleptic on a welded nautical standoff’s abutment charade.

Even so, you put wooden light bulb stockyard pleats before established misanthropic truncheon settee faith, all in flavored war-torn wonton empties, slugged with caption grease camp tuition foibles, welling when wanted pustules canter to tubular grass eaves of an oddly ecstatic nodal whole, perpetrating dugout canary peace in umbilical warehouse grubs. Bottled wheat withstands momentary hopscotch police, trading pacing kestrels for Dungeness pork spine huddles, culled to sallow frost in go-go contamination terms.

Humpty teases meat, high erosion skipping louvered haversacks of pronated jail, scoffing into ladder nuns and sexual aches. Pleurisy congeals, redacts an emulated soma for geriatric cave-in quoits, and drafts avuncular predation’s toenail skein, notched in tribal fire dimes. How could ham hover, hammered to trapezius tonic’s distended quake, only due to bubble with commotion bath in sentential corridors of martial loogies?

Icarus falling

my tide my shadow

few hundred words more

breakdown of wings uncalled for

dark endures

a moment the whole light

likely to gravitate

to the work world

in uncertain light

my working fearful desire

mind open

hen brooding

barriers within

a mouthful of steam

looking forward

narrative presence among decay

the absence of what defines

the wrong side of guessing impenetrable

one possibility

within hope

a mouthful of accounts

dark endures

Viewing the latest civic architecture

polyvocal

pap input

ongoing zero sight

on view

rebuilding area a monument

conceived soft ways

gathering

this much believed

where you are only one possibility

a difference

getting a response as someone else

not immediately obvious

dialectics created across town

to move

looking at one point

bullshitting in different styles

walls in applicant conversation

projected as the city

a completing propaganda

articulation of objects into spaces beyond the durational
