Watch,
Unstill the dark:
פיקוח נפש.
And the moneyflows wheretwo,
The curiassly guarded and the curiouser still,
Altilrollringalinglonging,
Fears and Gears Road,
You, watched,
The monthsindaisies,
Bloomtime, tis’ high noon time,
Get to work,
Untimely me,
Unmimely me,
Kindly me,
Mindly me,
But timely watchers.
Goons of victories past.
Queries on questions in inquiries,
As enquiry,
While an askance smile.
You see me.
I see you.
Do we know one another?
And a collective mind,
The allpunisher carries a Mary mile,
The Virginal Birther,
Which is to say:
an immortalized Liar and a gullible Lyre married once upon a time…
All collective punishment as collective injustice;
Justice is In-divide-ual:
Select acts of a single worldline, ultimately.
Moniedup flowing from their memory to sewer Vat.
An apropos feminine judiciary via the Worldwide Hearsay.
Mob justice as social justice.
Tell it like it is,
The judges of this court betray another,
Therefore justice is impossible,
And impunity assured,
Therefore freedom assured to Eggs himself:
“Hello. What shall I offer thee?”
The one who is free,
Is always seen with a lilt,
Then unseen.
“If he used the last brain cell in his head…”
Dad’s of Anger:
Inflammable, petulant, childish, paternalisms,
Therefore Western.
‘They, the disunited together.’
Never underhension in any cases,
Comprendehanded in averyway.
Look ahead,
Wrong future,
So watch your back,
It can change your eyes.
Most are corruptible,
Watch.
Counting, count.
Tikking, Tolk.
The folks are back,
so change your eyes.
The devil likes devilled eggs.
Impresario imprecations.
The rest are corruptible,
And watch.
Count to,
Two.
Pauses.
Look ahead,
Your threepassed depends on it.
All together now.
A choir symphony,
Sungas singalong singsong.
“Who’s there?”
Wheatkings,
“…in the Paris of the Prairies.”
Stray Canadian,
Fingers in the dirt.
Thousands.
The morrow brings the —
Look back —
Fruit.
Then for now.
Not sacrifice qua sacrifice for the fruit.
Sacrifice in the right soil,
For the fruit.
Careful, risk of tart, still, too.
“Have some taste.”
Watch ahead.
Tomorrow brings sorrows and saints.
Everything is corruptible.
“You are a troublemaker.”
Men in one way.
Women in another.
“A flake and a snowflake,”
And a broken man’s crying foul.
Watched.
No slip-ups, therefore.
Saint.
Sooner or later,
The Before and the After,
Are Here and Now.
Watch yourself:
My next Act.
