You could go further
with any simple sentence

pressure out an image
suggest various layers
mimic another language

Or reduce this one to symbols
& then rely on education

*

Politely claim the order—linear
circulating a story around the group

Entertaining syntax, deciding whether to leave it or flip it
then letting it fall on it’s face

*

Gendered and misrepresented, draped with false information
watching objectified subjects dieing off the page

Passing time with dislocated grammar
as it haphazardly folding into itself with unattached time and space

*

Construction of images, builds a cardboard house
welcoming improv through its windows while
dismantling binary opposites upon blank walls

Intertextual sports edit portraits of landscapes forgetting
what grandma taught you about pressing flowers between the covers

*

He wasn’t referring to anything in particular
only allowing certain pieces to develop
flopping them into the picture frame, leaving
them gasping and gracious in front of you

*

Slug like processions through caramel rivers
fast track it to success

Hidden behind a pile of books, inside a box with three walls
ready to be released from the giggling expectations
that follow you down the way
