Traced doorway
traced the ladder toward the storm
faced the undies toward your mask
chased the window toward the air
crazed the phonebook toward the corpse
I sung my bean rendition
and flop and doubt and wheeze and drum
and gnat and corn and sink and slug
and page and wipe and rant and pall
and knife and soup and clay and pop
you rung your butt contraption
rinsing ,I was foldered in the tonsil
where your cumulation gasped ,a mutt
ered loaf rancid with your lubrication
:what I stammered in the doorway
