little light weaned stem of blood as night prowled
urban utopia dismantled by barbaric
unfree unspeech,
poet throat civil servant neck good dude life, cut
dirty war brought high reveals low men
mean dumb filthy proven
city unkind (some sleep in brambles for warmth,
wear chains meant for dogs round neck
flag capes spit-soiled,
many lightning bolts bounced off
such dense malice
before two slain lives drained
on light rails sigh.
not a moment lapse see exploiting explorers
walk stilts o'er carnage, foliage a carnation
for menos incarceration
woe a den on tracks
sealed in peril,
dark lots warned storms blot
as right erred more
frequently fervent in fascist features
disfavored famously
to murder is wrong, 2murder wrongly is worse
clouds of crows ate sad death,
sky yet flew away off free speech wind
the climate? young scared teenage girls,
defense musters as animals free must when devalued
intent indignant unflinching
vulnerable, venerating in retrospect reflex,
a community binds
unndone becomes one
one voice out of three thrives,
poetry carves chance
(totem pole buried safe
mourn no hart
when stags are made trash
their vandal still cursing
under concrete cloaks of conscience ,
mullet maned deranged
arraigned maniac monster
not wooden, just split.
