Vulture peace (2010)

  

peace hawk dived war vulture.

war vulture feigned blood spurt with catsup. made of cats.


up went profit man to squeegee the pearly gates

of prophets that kept peace hawk kibbled on dividends,


while war vulture needed barrows of giblets,

all quite: standard.


***


feathers were lost, medals traded.

meals were deducted, entrails protracted.


cousins were fathered, interruptions extinguished.

language was passed thru channels


long since ex communicated with reality.

grounded, one stares at feathers and invariably one's feed.



***


first eyes were pecked

then the thighs or neck in a flurry of sightless battle


vulture war and hawk peace

had a baby. it shot itself before it aborted itself to save itself.


vulture peace.
