Sleeper
AGENT in place, sembling normal life, chameleon morphed to background,
SNAKY intentions slumbering, no sly arguments about good and evil,
FRILLs of markets instead, keeping up with the Joneses on gadgets and cars.
BLEAT on, those fools around him. Agent waits and hides grim smile.

Golem Won’t Wake
SLUNK through grimy alleys into warehouse,
GOLEM still in crate, me seeking words, drafting words,
PAPER strewn with Hebrew–which the word of waking?
DIZZY sense: I am one syllable off and so clay will not shift.
Best Two of Three
GOLEM struck with its fist from
DIZZYing heights against its bladed foe who
SLUNK away, broken. A new challenger appears:
PAPER.

Funk
‘The
LARGE skunk drunk on the lawn under the
SLANTED tree trunk
STUNK!’ ‘Well, you junk-head hunk of a
NINNY, what would you expect? Has your punk brain shrunk?’
Fatal to the Footwear
LARGE brackish pond, once stepped into, having
STUNK something fierce, made me wonder how to tell it
SLANT for polished recollection, but it’s just tale of
NINNY who stepped in it and later threw out his shoes.

Bilge
EXACTly how you can say one
GLEAM of the sun’s ray
TODAY counts as a sunny day. It’s
BILGE, your brain has gone astray.
