MALLOW THE FLEECY SLUMBERQUILT OF OWL-DOWN FOLDS

Mallow the fleecy slumberquilt of owl-down folds            
as glinting obsidian chips shatter to steel picks
glycerine meniscus slithers, slips gelatinous quivers  
on dusty towels of blotting sloe-deserts at closing time

Dazzling wattage of solar brilliance
blinks dilating mole’s eye eclipsed by fogs obscuring dulling lids
cactus scimitars bristle at hedgehog’s scalpel point
while boulders rolling hills globular orbs around

Jocular punning jesters teasing comic clown jollities
lost money, brown envelopes soggy with stale rain
strange minotaur glaciers promise unsolved wonder
but late tax tellies brake cold tabloid price-rises

Egyptian fossil farthings recall yore grandfathers 
now today’s internet chart-toppers skype new youth 
spiders shock rejected by bully-thief’s cruelty
as warm coco-friendly cottages enjoy blue skies


Faulty computer fails, dull music rankles tired mind 
awakening fresh glittering cool water splashes girls
shoes stepping path, kicking footballs as footsfall
shakehands fingers ring guitarists point to nailpolish

Formulaic wordhopper churns swilling unpop to critics
amusing the chucklers with bubbling playful verbdance
stay within your constructs if you will so continue thus
naught concerning consensus, joy rears again surprised


Ink-symbols convey conceptual synaptic lightning
the ever-curious gazer drinks from media’s swirling sea 
the dualistic key-tapper hurls the project out
and life-life returns to paths familiar and mallow
