porch king blues

aroma of the clandestine aftermath
importuned beefsteaks and porcupine hats
raindripped, unstitched, beneath the cover of
nudes silk-screened lying in a heap at the end of memory

action foreordains the approach to the mortuary bunmaker
the incendiary photo taker
the mercenary popcorn faker
cleansed
ambidextrous inchoate sentient mushroom tea murder mystery
knows where my left hand has been.

desire lies sniffling allergies reacting
white bloodcells aggregate
intruder alert, warning, I say warning
I repeat myself when under arrest
to that i can attest i have seen the sun
