Puppy's Path

paw's pads pinched by pins
under foot.
perforating the skin
in an uneven pattern.

yet pressing on.
paving a path with his entrails.
pulled by a chain.

Puppy's Stick

thrown, flying.
Puppy
running, righteousness reflecting in his eyes.

Stick
turning bark, frayed stem.
Puppy
racking bark, rusty nail piercing paw.

Stick
temporal errand, fatuous task.
Puppy
resolute servant, reverently loyal

to?

Puppy's Filter

Two red people on a bench of embers.
In a park with flaming trees.
Hands hanging from their shoulders, elbows locked.
Crimson palms down. Bloody fingers spread,
for support.
Stale, bloodshot eyes looking straight
yet away from the burning pupils of the puppy.

Time

Its palm passing over my face,
Endless lines embedded in the flesh.

The stubby thumb and the lithe little finger
take equal part
in plowing a tunnel to my brain.
Methodically bursting the cornea and retina.

Meanwhile the other appendages make way inside my mouth.
Supressing the tounge
and yanking the uvula,
As though a church bell

Ringing for the impending coming of a wretched tide.

Chasing Futility

The cat scratches at the mousehole,
Its sharp claws scarring the wood.
The feline acts out of instinctive agression.
Without destroying the wall it will never suffocate the evil within.

The question then arises-
Should the cat continue
Chasing its prey, destroying what's better left alone?
But then again between craters and hippies

There is a middle ground.

Rows

I run my eyes through
a manicured field
of symmetrical soldiers

unwavering save for the wind
that strives to bend them
but then returning to their ranks
all equal in similitude

Cum

I brush the wave falling down her face,
stroking her lashes,
nothing underneath them.

A bead of sweat slips to her lips.
Her tounge extends and absorbs it.
Mechanically.

She sighs air-
Hot only in its temperature.
Wet only in its saliva.
Heavy only in its mass.

She came. We're done.

The Coming

It came to pass,
We came to watch.
Pupils trailing the marquees.
Ears listening to anchors.
Nose sniffing for chemicals.

A deer caught up in the headlights of reality.
We stood united, paralyzed.
