Short quasi-poem

ODONTOCETA

DELPHINAPTERUS VELOCIPEDE 

MYSTICETA









Embody a whale.

Mechanized.

Borne cylindrically.

Bellowing out through the hemisphere mechanism

hinge-like impersonates sunvacillating

at de-frame-rate pacing.

Warm ceroplastic head.

Mammalian

Jaunted and spiderwebbed with

Thistlic capillaries.

Mammoth and jaunted

Brays like a fucking donkeywhaleporpoise

Drift

down a droughted aqueduct

wheels of rubber prescribed to you

beckoning the harpoonman from the filmic turnstile

from the expanse of see

Boneliketrojanquivering in the still winds

Holderofthefire: “You are forsaken to voyeurism.”

                “Do not forestall your fate.”

Holderofthefire: “Wither and acquiesce.”
