ping ping i scratch
my sonic membrane
infinite strip shopping
complex mother ship
bugs and fragments
dock bond or issue
and rich criteria slough
and tired marks muck
the main drag
the music's inconsolable
this sleep deprived soldier
soldiers on
where are the nouns?
tortured by sailors they sing
once chosen
they cannot
be
undone
on their knees
they regurgitate
memories
upside
down
their faces deform
emblazoned on coffee mugs
each one's a king
who laughs at sorrow
life's a tiny wound infected
so don't preach
restraint now
when we could be scratching
or floating
to the moon
emphysema
stalls the
memories
drowning
in
CO2
