Pathetic Fallacy at Ground Zero


Aspiring leaves spiraling 

Soon to be fallen, 
Look out if you will 

On a sky without bottom.

Huuklyeand Cinquor on Satiated Corpuses



[…the poet’s] entire body promises to satisfy our every whim and fancy
while we wait for his creative juices to start flowing once that first course arrives.*


You say

This fare is a bookworm’s
Unforgettable delight
Easily digested, my friend—

If so, why then

At the end the taste
Of gritty grubs ruminating
On tips of tumescent tongues?

*Blurb by one Randall Cann Standall on back cover of the Complete Poetical Works of X.S. Wasserbildj-Vandersluis, publisher unspecified.

Moderator’s comments: I don’t know about you guys but I’ve just about had my fill of Cinquor’s tasteless and tiresome efforts. The next time he sends me something like this, I’m going to return it to him with the following instructions (in block letters) on the envelope:  DROP DEAD, WRITE LATER.

Evenfall (2)


new moon 

a thin slice, old 
orange-red 

wrinkled sky cut 
deeper than skin 

deep.

Metamorphosis, Hombre, As in Cicada








Si, still under
Neath

Only a shell
Of it

Self, nada.
