The Dreaming Golem
And the other selves deployed:
my pretty crime tightens
the straps on her filched
shoes. The decoy
sent downriver returns
riddled. Terrorista, bomb
taped to her heart.
My roaring girl, smoking
gun. You’re inviolable, cut-
purse, my specialist
with a butter knife. This
colony stocked with ivory,
blackest of all black
inks, any adjective
I desire. My continued
debauch, I renounce
all claims & insinuation.
My duped confessor,
hanged judge.
Always comes
the recurring (After you
dearest language)
surrender. I’ve finished
your body off
with a colossal pencil
then shined my own
boots, Miss Nightmare,
caper and epic chase.
I’ll flee under Venus
til apprehended.
