I shed
spray
spew
sweat
cough on my shroud

don't bang a clown
cause zoos are loud
I'm not cowed

#poetry

you've got too strange for evil sprays maybe
then my strummed loam maybe
my mouse is lark and I've brought star-fold
your clanging sound rabies
with sheen and shone and a blue-nosed shrew

#poetry

the strong and blinding toad
that speeds through your poor
will never diss a peer
I've greened that toad, pre-spoor

#poetry

*I'd* read a book of poems called "The Brain Soliloquys", wouldn't you? #poetry

A page from "Breathnexus", a long poem about the beginning of the pandemic. I livestreamed a reading of this from my living room in May of 2020, posted on my YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/750ipb2Uj_E
