Gasp diluted by dust ridden inhales,
Bargaining for acid tongue surplus
To
Melt the fat that’s
Ravaging the pontificator’s
Chapped lips.
Orchestral articulation
Aligns escaping carbonation
With antidepressants
Shaken about
Inside mouths
Matching the orange
From whence the bottle birthed.
Triangle pulse predicts pitch,
Sequences tissue rhythms
To contend against
Papers soaked in old soda,
Escaping out the car
And scampering down the block,
Afraid of American freedoms.
Hunter
Gatherer tribes begot
Consumer culture
By combining resources
And luxuriating by the fire.
Sharing false claims of
The GODS’ forever is tomorrow
Plan.
Worship places the parishioner
Outside Walmart at 3am
During a pandemic
To purchase the same color palette
They ignore for free.
