WINE AND GATES

Kissing Elijah Like Ashes Sulked (suds for you)

the threat
minus the ice cubes
where the ice cream social is beat
a neat bedroom says it lewd's

say, "cheese" to a victory
of metal over a ley top
the shots on the house, society
for a question of hurt prides, hope

the thanks of yesterday in the palm of my hands
I imagine a shadow over the late order
Johnny come lately and lands
the theory is a sated more

bates the devil out of me
the tired eye of another day with the passion
of a formaldehyde that has the odor of being
the subtle grace of unity in the way of need lasting

should we a:
should we bee:
should we sea:
should we demonstrate the pink eye of justice

like the cubes popped back in
we know a future of moneyed care for the gift of a pie
going round and around the answer of a din
best left to guile, the naieve will notice the climb...

of a bottle to wind up
the higher the tonsil, the greater the spoil of a kiss
this napkin shouldn't, the thought of pop on kin
the knock of a cruel door away, the past is a youth's wisdom...
