wackaloons:  a rat's patoot


I eat 
each 
pea


(lopsided raucous gleams of teeth)


:green
peach
speech
stomach
spinach:


I ate speech.


I quashed it into
the turbid spindle
of quaffed silence, the 
tremulous giddy furrows of smudged waves 
winking in the sunspot twinkling
verve of gauze.


I eat each pee speech screech,
sparse spray of ho arse shore sounds 
cussing and sea 
scuffing along.


I ate each wretched wretch
wielding a wierd word wrench,
a neutered noun enduring nine 
nights of a deadpan darkling novena drear.


I bent the wrench of a one-inch bitch
with pristinely deckled crimping to the spine:
a scrap of tethered, insensate, intricate, stupefied flaws -- 


wintergold flailing a rat's patoot
smitten by the ewer spout jailhouse snitch
with the erstwhile limp
startling wackaloons wrenching the jacinth spigot
licking the miry byword "biwort."


It's a mangled flubbing pithy,
lobes palate burnoose, scabbard demurred, forsook alway, dross panted 
chortling cluster of plucked wilting pates, O whiny thwart --
abhor the descrying of 69.
