By Ryan Flanagan
the living taught light shower gourds
broken links for the dead
the system down in soil beds
crass corners hitched to flame
despicable prize for bird-like men
parasol flapping ends
rock boy legs in a permanent run
paper mogul checks his ink
catacombs on top of heads
x-ray box imprisonment
sapling tiles over counterfeit walls
capsules of time expunged.
