A hydroxyapatite chamber
with arcs and vaults
triangulates the hauntskull
 
stuffed with curlcalcium
bovine bones
blacken the lithograph
 
microchill the trepanation
the burrhole in metal
the drill in frameabsence
 
baroque in hydraulics
arthropodal limbs
bodyquake
 
the epibiotic vacuum
as papiermace cadavers
are crucified
 
with ectoplasmic glare
these immaculate clones
envenomate
 
a primeval token
that unlocks
the umbratic incubus
 
 
38°
 
 
This tronic
cascade
is an elastic
 
vein
with gaudy
proles
 
who are
anticrustacean
totoculars
 
as wargimps
encrypted
by diades
 
in a blinklink
of the zeuxisdead
 
troll this trompe
l’oeil
 
in its mortis
urinal

The turret
culates
on a hive
 
of primus
symbols
 
the feces soil
the threnody
 
its flexive
cliches
 
clickeryclack
 
in stuckanality
and pops
the empyrean
 
a turnstile 
in sludgychoo
 
has its nosetrivia
in an anesthezine
glare
 
this blot

Schwarze Hefte
the bait
 
for immanence
and facticity
 
is hydrogen
cyanide
 
in a schwitters
mural
 
the zyklonic
bricolage
 
in aborted loops 
of mappae
clavicula
 
and rubia
tintorum
 
this encratic
litany
 
is a nurohell
severed from
punctuata 
 
in a yellow
ataraxia

Bice
or verditer
 
have the same
chemicals
 
as copper, carbonate,
hydroxide
 
the burnt calcium
in faience
ash
 
paracobolts
smatite
the feet
 
of pickers
haunt their hollow
 
and metableed
this pixel pagetter
 
(kreaturlichekirt)
 
a humanoiex
dips its pods
in malachite
 
then creases
its skullcap
with tricornblack
 
lips dyed
with insect blood
 
and a picaflor
teleology
