[bodytext] => Sun-dappled, star-kiss’ed. Fermented guns shoot blanks, like rotting ferns. Pen and ink: quill tattoos, only semi- permanent, like hearts and sighs; like ships of bones – leaking. Faces painted up, a sad clown in a jester’s cap. Whitewash: picket fences and geisha eyes. Freckled lips belie your calamity. Paperclip novices and bear-trapped wounds; regal appliances outwit your electric currants, brain matter – conductive. Conductors; of train wrecks, your choir; a chorus of angels, erupting – volcanoes or doves. Mix a paste of glitter and rice, pigeon slaughter. Vomit-wax (ænd wane), crimson tides roiling: lividity. Sweetly scented propaganda gavottes from fibbing tongues, good, but not enough – far from those untold.
