1. World Affairs Caught in the Act

breath massages 
     and vibrant turns 

deceive apologia shredders

trendy platters emanate cut perfume
similar empty ring settings last word 

     murmurs 
     the original story past awning chimes
*

acrimonious stationers scripted burning barges 
the addled pose 
   claws receding 

                pool rejoinders 
     tuning hope borders hemispherical
                its passion svelte 

*

equinox enhances capillary stations
trendy syllables shake a receding magic

     loose
   from the 
     undertow 

     dividers panning transcript 
     search the braying chatter mills 

      grist mergers cue 
      from the surfeit bandwidth timing 

transit strategies foretell the cluster outposts


***
2. Never Enough

 roaming lavender shortages
          nightly letters aching embers
               foretell a fan lapel downpour

fossil styles let strata churn
to thinning the addled past 

     omelet fabric 
          vibrant 
                                over its lowering 

similar shortages tow without principle

     *

the tableau timing a simulacrum 
shallow discharge omens dive to fail 
impetigo bandwidth absorption

     grape bells rings onset
     past settings overturn whenever
                            borders veer cold 

wheeling east striving reels clock their strike 

     *

translucent aching gripped the cold 
before stations or galleys cluster lost meat 
wait at aching shores
burning the metastatic need 

     from cue to churning equinox
          shallow billiard magnet lecterns 

               envy shaking tablets animated

despite the murmurs of passion’s last reel


***
3. Beautiful Music Outplayed

a desperation mattress 
caught in ballad’s hot pursuit 

a madness                 
at the mural heads roll
       the pass                    over
                          the
    deaf-eared 
                     overture

advancing matter, energy the former
  heroic in transforming the thought
       word         as  deeded
       decodes receded residue

springs
        the nodal lunge
        synthetic
   entreaty                           dabs  
   spotters        trained

in the code of the crabgrass murder

no window scene flayed
     when the brutal shadow 
          displayed a frontal edge

the pitch tuned 
         to ears 
    out of hearing
