Spiders gave up on webs long after the assumption,
Anansi #1 silk trade suspect . like vagina helpers
home accounts can’t completely ignore; or text
rich in tell^tale idiot sounding fury.
* Straighteners face pale notice – l’horreur! for
this you’ve fallen ? the oldest civilization in the look;
hair braided in forest virtue, connectivity.
\ Saint Coitus silent, snap decisions could leave
flesh grid^like . lady days, night duress. There are
blue^chipping options bailar bailar!
~ | ~
Last stand on earth^like mothers post how cleft
+ groin show care – deer spiral antler^like on point
along faith inbreeding paths, lizard throat puff
watch.
* The unthinkable pressing up against
heart timid at goodbyes . from veil^sash ties
the dragon loose > curving flame strike vows
make clear of pain.
\ How right they were : our desert fevers
too late time relieves; death so gentle thanks
one ‘n’ all for coming | rest assured . cape
wraps swirl Olé! life^stops to heal.

THE NEWEST TESTAMENT DUE
Yes, extract the fine from the gross, but
refinement is no funeral-flag.
There can be too much of even Less
Is-More: look, your belly is bulging from it.
Reduction, renunciation, sacrifice:
these are addictive hooks that can shred your veins
if you’re in love more with the idea
of Death than with making more life-space
- by throwing out dead forms, and letting more seeds
into life’s womb.
