8 A Smear of Nothing

three minutes to parlay in the bedside elevator.

to decide to cross the dockyard rabble

passing out defective thermos bottles and
tacky tiaras.


still a degree of noise for quinine and lettuce.


manager's big toe wrapped in gauze
and dipped in a yogurt cup.

comatose, on the extension, in a throwaway gesture.


candles on top of sawhorses...light up the clifftop barriers.

commando squad of eleven
climbing up from the reef

to execute from behind.


Respectfully add a smear of nothing.

Mockery from the man with the corncob complexion.
