Poetry from Vernon Frazer


New Money Talking

a parvenu offer discharging

other beveled rhythm clatter

created the natal glassware

negative distention shared

slowly with caravan garnish

a vernacular surfeit ravenous

when placebo clutter scented

all vinyl camels sentenced 

to motivation from bonfire

moons harvest night visions

baring simple reverberation 

mixed donation count slowing

the explanation always current

alkali confessionals assimilate

slowly crumbling nonchalance 

nouns confused beyond focus

boxed the intended explanation

their asymmetrical rout buttons

left the blot workers hot hands

gripping for work when shading

though a new belief metropolis

tried as nominal monorail dreams

asphalt moving where plumage

displaces pinnacle precursors

sweatband mavens manipulate

sandbar dissertation swamping

catapult mustard blown ashore

cranks threatened clatter thirst

where shore’s old money fails

recumbent vengeance battered

blossom soundtrack bromide

while chopstick hipsters loaded 

before fetal setters waddled

partnership plumage protruding

acoustic manacle swamping

subterranean passengers worm

behind a retro simulacrum pit

repository staterooms gamble

old management vendettas

trace a subliminal condition

called nom more than noum 

and crowing transparencies

go postal for envelope return 

or warrant rampage visions

the intricate endeavor served

over fresh apocalypse lotion 

gives notions pixellated rancor 

King Leering

1.

reptilian camphor

never a slither too soon 

     adorned &

adrift in scrotal motoring

     epilogue in fourth pursuit

     culpable as a faded legion

     grown foreign to its tongue

no matter the sliced enticement

     a filter guord

     sharing tooth bleeds

     a bellied circus

cordially monochromatic

     and always available

                  in shortened outbursts

2.

writhing mayhem

occlusion spoils the winning 

     whose circuits

shorten the soiled spread

         caught 

         in a tandem remake

         unclogged 

                          its calling core 

a new suit (gray) covers the slay fang

     implant

     the chronic rotary ogle

     replayed

                   a grip-firmed gin

         attuned to automatic

             outbursts parlayed cast

                  nuance to dating figurines

3.

turning left-

handed on the condo circuit

                  a rebel 

                  without a paw

     no star north

     on the Hollywood walk

to warm 

             the break

                            of a lizard chill

just flip on the zeitgeist filter

     ecalate downward

          an eye on ascending

               the scent of his ointment

Sometimes it Takes a Weatherman

roadhouse winds seem leftward 

prefixes to convenient pursuit 

of roadblock carnage bellow out-

play setbacks that failed to stray 

from a victor’s convenient minibus

motoring a firestorm transit rumor

alongside visor launches designated 

to pillory schemata recipients 

formation grows vexation turf

wavering against the sciatica blister 

employers left to forage custard or silt

stock dilemmas in the fetid marsh

no predators attended the bramble 

an armpit thrust lowered bandanas

red animation compounded assent 

backbone boost informally intoned

no caliper adversaries compounded

another tangible venom change

left a salvage phone dispatch filter 

ventilated natal fortification glory

the phrenolology firestorm forecast 

their linear organ liter landmark trails

fair comparison to a roman jockstrap

lunchtime exorcism belch emerging 

nice caricature to bump upon a bias

the lemur media already receives 

empty support from intrepid reflectors 

where roadhouse monuments dazzle 

filler but diminished drizzle glazed

the vagabond camouflage too relic

dooms its own discursive slipping

duffers hail a coastal mausoleum

tabloids blow messenger predilections

past the looming preconception 

syncophantic retrofit pulsations glimmer

ghost implosions when darkened

bolero dining to a sepulchral medley

Long Motel Stayed

larvae pudding 

low tipper cleats turn out 

the other thrust

whisper texture

fades on feel from heating

motive a venom waylaid

as linear guffaw exports

a raw blockade enclave

daydreams

boast hourglass staterooms

immediate 

pallor stains the worn brain 

dispensing

sedentary replication

to delay any pocketbook guest

sidecar candelabera boast

a vaunted misanthrope rotisserie

stroking visible pork shading

dazed veins

turning patio temper vacant
