scannery row


shades of another
color
meld into the reversal
of law
world alone tilted
anti-titled tomatoes
i have finally accepted
the roll of acting
in the blues
tree-lined
staggering
technologies
criss-crossing crises
impact consumption oceanic
& here like deadly lingo
compact
open
rising
surge like bait on a hook
fishing for the big one
fishing in a tireless sea of notions
cancelled & corrupt like teeth swum
widely shrimp nutrients framed
vertical wild-eyed frames
mark a trance
while we eat
shit
swim
farmed also mate
framed motionless
missions
act the oceans
whose sound is yet unknown.
