The New Delay In Motor Skills

Debris scatters

through the city

concerts play on

with indifference

pregnant thoughts

abort

before seeds are conceived fully

and rain seperates

from clouds

as liberty is obtained

seperating environment.

Woodstock revolutionary grass-sitting

corpses pulled from cryogenics

laughing failures check wrist watches

time an inaudible gift

ancient princes walk cane-aided

non-trip surfaces

the new astroturf.

Pulling nails

from hands

sneakered feet catch well

run on while you can

fluffy the cat is back

minus a jaw

last atomics

sprayed down

many saw mushroomed results

large and overhead

foods lose consumption

and Amish renderings return

to splice a cinematic conclusion

of internal frictions caught outward

fingers clenching intertwined

with love

or self

give me a shallow one

so the dogs can dig me out.
