dowellian

July and
overflights of suspicious angels
remote viewing
moving nights and ageing rites
minute mysticism
furtive deities hide behind public locker doors
sticks of stainless steel incense
the sudden desire to build a kite
a world involved in the politics and religion of dowels
Dowelism
harsh penile codes regret that they cannot attend
the debutantes ball, and ball and bawl...
John Donne is the bouncer
he cholers Satan at the door
three batters up
and songs fly out of nowhere in life particular
sing froid, fraud, Freud
ambulances meander a slow path left turn
fly fishing for tears in a basin
bad casting
single star
baited and rated
sufficiently sated
map-strewn decrepitudinal lines
trapped freedom wriggles like worm bait
bad teeth in forgiving jaws
death glowers at conception
can it not see our spermicidal love?
