stuck sober, singing silence into scrapes sewn shut
with molting memories; migraines moving emotions
round your rotting brain, rosy restless flesh
that can't keep quiet. careless kestrals keening
for flooded fields and feckless flights.
sulking sky is single-minded: spitting serious
drops onto dangerously dingy days.
peace in pieces, precariously perched; posed
over orange orchids, oxidizing octagonal
hopes into hassles, haranguing and hemming in.
effortless energy ekes electricity,
raking in righteously rigorous ramifications
to timorously table tough times and tithes.
