gibbous faggot hypnosis
day moon gaze blank
as nether witness
a floating
sky glitch
gradual glowing
corolla of no
petals in the almost dusk
we forgive the sky for being a mirage
my drenched constellation
seeps stars into the night dryness
forging atmospheres
that dissolve playfully in immediate blue
gay flowers to heal my neuroses
floral clumps in fernish glades
diffusing pollen gone traipsingly
lost my quell obsess
all sere aspiring but
no drop of spill to pool as gentle ponds
