10:50 a.m.
golden laughs cut into finely diced melons
sheens winking from clacking forks splotches the stagnant air with a dry tang
and a
G – D Major quick-snap strum meld
the melty chords taste richer than bottle blond sand seeping into a lone burger tossed on a disgruntled beach blanket
heavy rippling canvas quilts with prints of sweat swish from intermittent spools of runaway hair and
guards
the rider of stubbled concrete and deer droppings coils
it finesses around dappled fair kindles daubing the leaves of shaded green
piquancy, it tastes, on carcasses of electric blue-green bulging flies with carnivorous diets
the slight garden ophidian wedges itself into an obsidian trunk’s stretched dimples
it peers over
planted dropped lights softly blooming day and night
flaxen chestnut bulbs glowing with murmurs
as jack o’ lanterns of standing beige bird feeders invade the former garden of dewy goddess mugunghwa
