er Clouds
A desert star caged
in the walls of sky
covetous of higher
clouds
covetous of highedged
by ocure parachutes
fallen
golden
palm tree tip toes
heat stain echoes
refresh a valley, refresh a valley refresh
Walgreens lit trees
gated mountains cemented cactus
dried rivers
pavement
an orange moon
drips blue
desolate blinks
what weird grass
these golf courses love
strange
and
tame
behind windmill
forests
I don’t want to be found it’s not like we’re just lost
magnify glass
an ant hilled town
and the burn will shine
a heat of dollar
signs we gulp to
rush the surface of the sun

Save As (copy)
enhance fill
cavities on the moon
pinch its waist penny sized
our lightning bolts
and sunsets
defaultiez memorialized
for likes for worships
for hand made me’s
aMErican narcian
me made in
filtered faces perfect
me’s image
a typed
race
of me
tints me neat

Caution: Treez
under the low
battery moon
flickerz
electric bluez
refreshez r hovered trancez
high voltage branches
buzz under
rage connectionz
cut and pasted
stapled breezes
loop yesterday’s
steady rays
we stray tomorrow’s
lag on tiny veined
screens M80 in
glass slags
glisten in jungle
uploads to roots
plugged in walls
wifi water
falls in tilez
of static soil
attic siloz
tactic oil
state of the art messaged engineerz
reset the mess
massage the age
age the mess through
mass font
this broken tree needs charging

Blinker
We’re underwater
sways side to sink
batteries dying
computer faces
fading off
and on and off and
jaws mold
stuck in place
in slow mo
molten jolt
of neon red
sparks scrape
our
jugulars
lodge us
into the fridge
dig for berries
from giddy bellies
sizzled with napalm
syrup glass punch
volcanic attack
to cover the burn
to nail the wound
over with burn
onto liquid
crutch
crutch

froth and crack
electric spinez

bubble our subtle mumblez

Dominos
Bored as a square
room of walls
awes moore us
knock us
down
dominos
pour out
shots at
stealth intestines
bruised from last week
raisened throats
acidic teeth
stained piano keys
ring empty
in the back dusty
breathing gets interesting
cotton candy jellyfish
zipper open
across the floor
bubbles tap dance
the surfaces
of our eyeballs
illuminated top hat
break dances
neon mustaches
the wind
tickles our skin
glow in the dark green
cigarettes smoke themselves
saturday night satirist
throw elbows up
for fun
grab onto
fire flavored falls
saviors who forget
empty stomachs
gulp
it up
moonberries
and a bottle of iforgot

Moon Mountain
strawberry skeletons
melted emotions
attempt connections
to mason jars
with no wifi
only dead stars
hang out
in the sky filled
murky potions
cause commotion
in our singing voices
we wake the neighbors
delicate blinks
glitching dots
4,626
feet under
our feet
knock ourselves
out sound
rings of pounded cups
countertop bottles
drop in shatters
crystal rainbows
launch at our cheeks
scrape our lips
fall in our drinks
though the view
askew
some sign
in clouds
we trip
in eyelids
in signs in
the kitchen
clouds
