Sometimes
Sunlight in the window
attest
to rainbows jumping from scattered prisms
to rainbows jumping from scattered prisms
hung on nylon strings
and plucked
in off-key melodies
dancing upon the crack
of an eye.
She sleeps fitfully, a
scramble
amongst dreams that
leap and twist like a mandrake
on a hot griddle. The
frogs don't care
but move their feet
among the sausages
and mushrooms
wondering why they
came.
Tadpoles have no
conscience. They hiccup
from memory to prescience. Mayfly larvae prown
from memory to prescience. Mayfly larvae prown
the depths. A wince of
pain
hungry mouths beget
hunger
while water spider
watches close; fies
of embarrassment –
blushes festoon
the rough walls of her
life.
It matters little.
When everybody dies.
