Poetry
Dreaming in Syndication
Loving architectonics multiplying.
Familial synergists.
Non-evidentiary reproductive processes.
Filmic dispossession.
Auto mechanical fibrillation.
Episodal contingencies.
Today’s blueprint-concept.
Tomorrow’s richly paneled households.
The precarious drama of the staircase.
Law of returning incipience.
Many brothers free to choose
Between encumbering masculinities.
Lilting cult-headed children.
Silent incorrigible children looking.
Three prefabricated sisters.
Their muscular remonstrations
Involuntarily tearing at ideality.
And they knew they were much more than a bunch.
