 The Big Brass Balls of the State

Wake
and the brilliant
box bozzle, scarlet coriander
mary-scented candle
melted on the doorstep
here is where he lay

just another occasion
for chalk art
on the streets

Novocain to quiet the pain
for the removal of the tooth
that the hands that deliver
death
may not be bit

they march in blue but sing
in other colors
that they make out
of things like matches
in the labor
atory (conserve
atory) ambulate
the ashes
send them rocketmail
to heaven
or St. Barts
with a charge card
and an endless body
like a bent nail
that has no accusation

Do the Unthinkable.
As loud as you can and in everyone’s face.

the name of the game is plain sight
but then, what is a pocket square?
