[bodytext] => The fence’s shadowed barricade is not foray enough to stop the frisbee’s wobbly promenade from intercepting crop. No more eccentric than the trees who smile and scowl and gape at once, who, with breaking of the breeze, lodge frisbees in their leafy nape, he idles on a shanty porch, the banister crucified mulch. I cradle a topaz torch, its jeweled spires to brace this gulch. Lords of lesser glint wear talcum powder on their wings; will spare the iridescent mint, deign to pull the sundry strings, and home runs were all struck here in brawn, raw hides lost to still more hides, blighted to a sable lawn where the old magpie resides. No more does his feathered throat squawk embers in a patent might; a fireless forge employed the bird like gilded Horus without light.
