“Our worlds frolic around mounds and flesh
of new born petty maggot-fly
while angels fall toward heathen’s floor
unaffected nature’s warmth
its earth, its you, its cotton-sky
hidden fast and etched in frost
for blinding fetch and fury gloss
of children’s shat idols glean
they follow-share, screech and froth
for hollow resin folly moth.”
—spider hacksaw (2013) in loving memory of Karen Black, immortal queen, who died in August, Twenty-thirteen.
