The Beast

a carnival of hordes in withering grass

the high priestess tongues the beast

wet mandible

on a dragging death gowned doll

like a cyclone coils paradise

trans mutative

a prismatic whirling

passed bones of confusion

passed scorched debris

of radiating spiraled phantoms

the more gods, the more demons

battle angel symmetries

in Taoist jaws

galactic lurking’s

through parametric infinities

escalating war; like cloud light

rush glittering arms of affliction

exhalations like upleaping sail fish

drizzle sooty rain

shellacking tinsel rhinos

hieroglyphs of the barbarous

a transfixed guttural prana;

apostasy

between advances and retreats

in chimeras earth quake palace

death: an origin story.
