If the car rolls and seems to crash
let its oocaleptic ostrich shell tires
come apart tesselating
along telescopic intervals
of immoderated cylindrism
mucho shoji
or aluminum origami mobile
said as molecule
to synthetic light
or audience as hightened
architectural skull
beat: like this cat i saw
in cambridge on the square
dude had made a skull booth
out of cardboard and was
reciting poetry with a microphone
but his voice just sounded
like smeared paint
ill edgible
there were actual crippled people
along
the interest of harvard
sort of like displaying themselves
and ostensibly begging i suppose
but the whole thing was suddenly
sort of supra-petronium
as if you could sculpt
Marcus Aurelius
out of gas.
numb
dumb
or brighter
the edges of everything
only seemed real
because they were touching
dumbo squid (i'm inside)
if the molecule
imitates the atom
in some way
which itself is imitating
demons
then the body
imitates the molecule
but let
it
not demonize
if the odalisque hives
are reclining
within an indelicate
wadding of angles
let figurines
become superconductive
slow
legible
entrances
to even more interesting
surkits
azooka
a rod reaches out its head
grows clear
and green
