PAPER PLANET
Paper planet unpinned on something glassy
also pink ambulance
table wipe emergency dressed candy
square game was force of hospital
fluid zigzag elements felt mannerism
repeated hunt near ring letters
fit molars the way sleep soon little would
one accomplice looked
and the issue flow and paper
hand panic for quash of some dropped
questions wanted eyes of Halloween
amalgamated snakes forever outlines milk
that house floating
your automatic sleep stampede built on the bifocal
Fractal gladiator carries lugubrious toy rifles
A coffee is a squares pipes
the registering girl flowed streaming wet
rain in the looped army
oceans slowly open child
glittering morphological lining
recorder kept single pudding
palm world powers narcissist module
then stuck dripping steamed gulf
wooden dress could hyphenate
swift blackness the transverse thin for water
circles surged dactyl our dead
cars solids curtains tiny jaguars wanted another explosives
vast software guns arranged someone to the stretched
PERISCOPE
She bumped red suns
crackling white galactic
clicking engines luminous
orange car slammed ink animals
sonorous notifier flaming griffin
simple hand put down porcelain
tingling troops tumbling
The bright inter-spaced creatures
engravings lengthen estuary
tanks ensconce over echo kill
printed lance the white words
leather waterfalls of tranquil light
translucent faded statues
mysterious Indian rays
The few people of ice gods
crazy hyperborean troops
darkened day package
resistant sailor tripped
office burns the air
run in the fine summer Data
imperial curtains shook the machine
The lamp her curling clerks
zinc encircled candle furry with anesthetize threshold
the whipper shut moons
reflection in pinball
dressed eye and clouds
but static torch falling
plastic antique face hid guns
LINCOLN LOOP
A geometrical design drifted past
disconnected hands twinkle
a fold in the flows held a glassine eye
facsimiles of dead space in the disorganized area
in blue time desolation thread broke
a complex flow disconnected the intruding lines
design accident instar horizon
automatic movements of the tiny area
ballerina knew the suspected man
Burning specters like thought wings
a lake that glitters with radioactive fluorescence
something strained almost to breaking
ashes frayed like threads of fabric
the darkness depressed child propellant
blotted minds with metabolic radiocarbon
Sumerians slide down glistening icicles
tropical bomb suddenly formed fish channel
gnomic trouser that first discovered life
THE PROXY INTELLIGENCE
Candied terabyte of meson water
rubbed a couple of skies with
xenon supply paper
submerged thickness of brownstone
partially pulling regrettable friends
Osiris piloted 3 musketeers
scooped bronze hospital ship with frozen stamp
Dixie hook looks with lucrative sugar
Mars girls stay with area 56 in underwater fur
tank curves in noteworthy knees
ultraviolet rainbows over a microwave sea
dispenser of strangeness strikes strontium
sea breakfast gives an inch
analgesic reprisal of quick colonnade
our Goliath buildup uses his plush nightlife
accidentally flattens bobcat
Didn’t rinse sylphs with metallic blood
opening calibration out of vortex aggregate
specters appear in the polar ring
knight clamps nettle out of cubed windows
capacitor crowns tactless morphology
French flags wash beautiful scrimshaw
foobar needs camerawork structures
waterfalls on pirate ship pumping high
FURRY CHILDREN
Someones touch electrified the visiplates
blood and bone only with eyes of iron
this but sparkles and hovers
the fire banister became Egyptian
king of sleep in concession stand
geometric anthem sometimes covers sky
attached flare of sizzling ripples
commandos pierce narrow blind
hands drift in darkness
milky teeth traps tank beneath polar bears
there parted somewhere heroes
Machine looking into small fingerprints
closed uniformity glasses
filing furry children from willows Garbo
small earth fell over the night rays of birds
Little John resplendent in the tiny tools of time
later doom to atoms behind the kangaroo
green against this studded thunder
water patiently wears the edge
stopped dreaming fishes
thought seeps into the very spaces between
pressure zone conceals enormous carved gargoyles
