" Glitter in the Gloom "...

" Glitter in the Gloom "

Glitter in the gloom
for flirtatious
provocateurs

like the last human
to walk solely
with the man-in-the-moon

via long-haul routes
during booms
for bridging lunar futures

hell-bent tenors sing,
" Oh Sole Mio "
"what a beautiful thing
the gentle breeze"

tree-lined streets
evening moon beams
dashes apostrophes
random misspellings

deeply entailed
within memoirs grasps
arcanely grammatical
multinational glaring
castles in the air

through spy glasses
for voyeurs
while talking and laughing

being hemmed in by walks
having gone off campus
climbing windowless stairs

feeling all entranced
by organic matter
synthesizing plants
flattened green sacs

as no accident
blue-grren algae
tenacities of trees

hardy species
subterranean
ecologies...
