Melon
hearts
Carry
dulcet tunes
Sop
your face with the juice
Let
it run peach and gossamer
Dripping
in time to the
Vibrations
up your body
From
every tribal footstep
And
delirious leap into nitrogen arms
Yank
it down
Thundering
cracked caravans
Running
away
Circles
and cleft palates
Splitting
the fibers of the atoms
Electrons
screaming for their mothers
Gnashing
at the earth
They
claw for her
Taste
the phoenix as you rise
Soiled
with the ashes of Lake Street
I
know you can
Find
fear’s filaments
Clogging
your every pore
Life’s
blood tiger blood
Trying
to run
Twist
yourself
Into
the pretzel of the new generation
