From The Belly

HomePoetryFrom The Belly

The Prophet doesn’t use the Mr. King James
words, dripping pokeberry ink. As he shouts
…”Why wait for the casket. Drink the
kerosene and bypass the swallow.”

The belly of the altar becomes blue flame,
a human lantern in the kudzu, screaming.
“Whose your daddy now?” from the sperm
of the catfish.
