Two Teeth
Don’t snozzle your mask
don’t spangle your smile
don’t childrenly chuckle to yourself
birthed to bloom
now lost of blossom
to a muddiness
among a plethora of plumpness
rot sprouts ubiquitous sitcom
as if
dross imagos dross talk dross teeth dross existence
wire tired— the guns out already
and of course not one of them backfires
so very naïve to the abspestos painting [the work of art — the weak of art]
the air from lobby to roof
at every turn of the maze a mirage suddenly springs up—
Ceasar knows best
the candyfloss from the candy tree
brings a reader exaggerated focus [say “sugar high!”]
confused imagos— something tells me the apes will be back
but not immediately— this poem painful as looking for a haystack
in a giant pile of needles.
