The rotten mane (2017)

  

earth nameless stumbles into human form,

     a suit derides in mealy pleats;

the phaeton drops them at the curb,

     his cape over his klannish sheets;


dim don treads, alligator shoe-horned,

     toward his minaret of unflinching greed;

composure escapes him, a raped morn,

     liberty lady ravaged need not plead.


the vouch of slime undoes his tongue, 

    all fair and noble creature recoil;

rather air or water to quench his lust,

     don's bearings gurgle Oil.


land promises, evict the rotten mane

of tyrants tirades and more of the same.
