wagon about on thief wagon wheels

spinning confidence like prose in garlic

paper napkins. Neighborhood snipers scan
city avenues to feather-pluck the felon Mr.

& deliver justice from up high. No lie!

No rabble-rousing rhymes—prose in paper garlic fried.

Lines white-wine with courtesy refined nab fortunes and

nuptial commitments

they cuckold they unwind and wheel away

about      up and down.     Oh status woe! Take Mrs. Consuelo

married these 43 years with yard topiaries beast & abstract

taken to a charming oubliette through her very own consent.

That peacock Mr. with white-wine feathers served her pleasure after pleasure

letter after letter

better after better

until she let herself

dwindle

to his cigar

smoke and ash of a cigarillo.

Oh when

will the crosshairs capture

garlic feathered Mr. wine white-peacock prose?

& the mayor says the city has become unsound.
