Reduction (Free verse) by MacFrantic
I'll catch the red eye
If my good one spots the tire track,
Implosions, or anything below me.
Happy cheer-driving snows.
I'll see Christmas on the calendar.
My finger is a fulcrum for the horizon
And we're lifting.
Ascension, what impatient noise.
Headmistress, Harlot, condensation
On the windows, from the inside.
That's a heated barking eruption.
I'll sink further and further
To keep the tips of my ears.
Sleep excites me to bang
Bang on the cockpit doors
And the floor is a silicone mesh
Like the breasts of never mothers are.
The cool slip stretches my dimensions
Until the wings are wings of angels.
And I slide down the insides
Of the plastic windows, rain
And you speak tongues to me while I melt.
