the defrocked
dope dealer's glittery eyes match his iridescent fishnet
stockings (which belie his stolen businessman's suit). he is telling
the
faeries' beautiful tales. (they know better but believe anyway.) he
is
writing physiqs equations in the air. for the cops to breathe (like
sabotage.)
meanwhile
fifths
and thirds of (drive-in
theatre)
starlight
rain on the foamrubber
elephants' graveyard;
snails continue tedious hejiras
towards saturn, crawling through
the sky
inch by inch. passing
Beauties
and feelings old dead priests
a seraph-man skeletons hands
scarlet demons clouds waters
like a troupe of silver dancers winds
against
a dust of emerald
poured in your ears.
But let's
concern ourselves with earth for a minute.
The defrocked
dope dealer's booby trap worked: FLOWRs made of entropy and
antimatter eating through the cops' insomnia 'til sunrise. They have
accidentally overdosed on unreasonable beliefs. Crayola-colored crows
flash
in the distance. They know. They whisper in the blank space newspapers
afford them. Earth hears them.
But only
the faeries believe them.
