Unwholesome howl
of civilized voice
divining spark
from the smiling dark
commanding the sand
through unscannable hands
with a dusky heart
hard to the shape
of this numbered business
sprawl display
I broke from the pack
into bits of
black budget
byway
barking night…
bred there
the broods of Fenrir
greasing chase,
a gangstalker’s dream in
a petrodollar scheme
a scrying from the wheel
in classified echoes
whispering shine:
“I shall not
minish from these bricks
my deadly toil”
while eating ze bugs
on the technocratic grid
with a sleeper cell
amnesia serving grace-
my lightning-struck tongue
pitched in the fiery pale
of a clockwork peel,
a zeal for soothsaying
scrawls on bloody drawls
stooged to the tune
of salt residue
trained in the pain
of slowly crafting
rain-made plans
on nebulous scans
a net zero
sum hero
metropolitan
compromise
a misanthropic
desire to replenish
this boom car
parking lot hole
for elbow room
in the pining gloom
rendering the sinners
unto data centers,
greenlit schemes
carving permanent shade
into numbered asphalt
business sprawl
displays…
unwelcome noise
of electric prowl
unscannable hands
of unknowable howl
I broke from the exit
into bits of
black magic highways
sparking light
