Jaws scraped by rigid wool. Bosoms wink,
innocence a cover in plush fleece.
This blazer will straighten me out,
keep the femininity from foaming over.
Non-redundant silk gazar. Sooty florals.
Not enough wine or caffeine in the world
to face: the current sobriety.
Your last sobriety.
Designer vaginas.
Modernism, as Pound knew it.
A modernized 1980s puffball skirt.
Sidewalked catwalks built like dog runs.
Use the word human to describe the collection,
while carnivorous nocturnal belted felted
blade-toothed ghost slugs
dance their ka-ching ka-ching.
I know who you are. Relax darling
you say, and then there’s the big So What?
And at the world’s cash register, each second counts.
