start

every story starts,
every story does not end

over encumbered punctuation
lays heavy, leaves footprints
is reliant upon gravity
denies centrifugality
despite the obvious spiral twirls
into oblivion, so called

no badge is valid, only force
over head heated mastery of
womanly mystery and…

a little bit of special tea
herb that compliments
dark glasses and
more tea

stumble down pull of stairs
instead the crumple of stares
every reason for smooth to fail
losing fun to fantasy, lost
due blood and here, a missing head

so many things go missing
now a top to torso
so lacks the rest of function
a reason for crime to rhyme
with whimsy

dark glasses drop to nostrils
furry slope inspection
international flight
headphone French Meshell mix
lanky nylon nightmare
Hugh Hefner with a tail

Extra sweet with sugar attendant
Bernadette attends the wounded fearless 1st class flyers
she has what you desire, honey
Toronto, Athens, Lisbon, Akron, Houston
needs for home town talk

a nourishing
back to sleep
tuck, tall tail of sleep walk
Good night,
Sweet Bunny with a gun
