Deepthroat
Gleaming pipe for Quickstop jitters,
a plastic rose for a sweetheart's coat...
the parking lot sizzles
a drizzled bane...
the neon winks a flay of glass,
a full-on tank of rich gasoline,
a sidelong croak
of choking numb
on some dumb rage:
all teeth & tongue
& throat of dark...
a deeper sense for
observation:
aspiration:
filled & florescent
with a Chore Boy blue,
a Faustian bargain
cloaked in smoke:
belles to ring
a defining purple,
taken aback
from deals with devils -
aghast at the glow
of foaming veins,
fleshwait is long
in silent.roots -
tooth & claw,
pining vines
for moles in holes
or torching on porches
under grim subversion -
these journeys itch clean
of concrete tombs,
skunk & stench
in the corners of our eyes...
they are piles of stone
to barrow.home,
a bas-relief
to bear the clouds
outlived alive, up close & personal,
clearing throats & threat of death
in beds of dirt & trouble...
in thickets of rackets
(& kept in-house)
like beaming buds,
the rocks relax in vain
for monuments,
clamored up dry
with a wisp of weight,
resonated mules
to the path of swine
& the creeping caw
of creak & crane,
choking cloth & open neck,
what day must come
for a blade of whims
to storm on point?
What time-worn prize
will pierce the puzzle?
Guzzle this close
& watch your throat:
the shriek behind,
a sparking wall,
grinding whet with hope
& signed...
a slice of hell
with likewise mind...
beam & smile...
gleam & ice for roadside jitters,
glass & thorn of wizened coat...
the highway sizzles
in grizzled vain...
