sardinia

You biliously endowed
Augmented anxiety,
Back from casually cushioned pipes,
To an un-requested
Overly augmented cavity,
Suspending time
Between enzymic teeth,
Bridged with an accidental oblivion,
Ringed rose in a gum lost to many east of the Ganges

Conclusions shared
‘Regardless of cost”
Grape juice and petrol
‘…do the Commora reach this far west?’
Sanguine refusal on the lips
Of lapsed senators
Echo my own Saxon ignorance,
And so hopes for shared Latin roots
In Hippocratic texts
Fall into screams
And scant hypodermic relief

Dreams of an amply funded
And infinitely pliant-client-centered-anylgesicaly-liberal-streamlined-ergonomic-haven
Melt into old world machismo,
As the lead bites Trajan’s column
And Naples bins? Remain its streets,

Though the proscribers demeanour and polish attest
To a singular awareness of linear design and propriety

At this point I weep

I think

Perhaps

Though with so little fluid who can tell?

THE CAUSE OF THIS ILLNESS:
An out-outsidedness:
Removed from its exteriority and placed in another’s beyond,
Medicated to near destruction
And so found
Stereotypically circular,
And though not Dante:
The tenuous linguistic link is… as above dubious but sufficient.
