in the shadows

still life visions

writhing

like van Gogh’s poplars

on acid

broken glass reflections

talking TV heads

maniacally muttering

children’s labels inherited

sweated from each other's postscript ramblings

gambling on attention span

lost in fantasies

drowning in delusions of insight

pandering illusions of awareness

weaving truth out of nothing

Creationism at its best

replacing facts with repetition

short stroking for the tired masses

gleefully in the moment on display

openly pumping rhetoric

toward the climax of May Sweeps

get out and see for yourself
