klieg lite threnody (2017)



An instrument balm, her voice aphrodisiac
booming emphatic enough to cardiac
   arrest any sheriff, or bailiff of cupid
   tasked to swoon swains;  stupid's

mead-merry eyes, drinking all wenches,
in bleary bleak praise, half-glued to benches
   teetering toward such sultry-smooth bait
   odysseus and frank sinatra can relate---

---mermaid her siren thigh shimmering tone
---oceans of strange fiends atonal, bone
   reaped of sheepskin the razor reefs claimed
   the toll song extracting, not first explained

Bombing a silent salient hero
searing ear pleasant (math with all zeros)
