Direct Current (Sestina) by horus8
In the middle of the desert, drunk, I did pen
a dot to dot chart of the most pellucid stars.
The further I walked from the fire, they spread.
Out in a sheer chaos florescence, Â Rorschach test.
Dimorphic and shedding, I gagged in delight,
and vomited up my breakfast in a similar pattern.
Vatic and lost, I did a coyote running an SOS pattern.
No longer having anymore use for my loggy pen.
Letting go of my face into vast space with delight.
I got dilly and naked and made love to the cold stars
Without a second thought, I anti up for the test,
and rolled out my bones to get bloody and spread.
There, I came into a clearing were Asian pears spread...
Along with pomegranate branded with Hades' pattern
How came I upon this groove and its Persephone test?
Complete with a Jerry-Built Nicholas Tesla pig pen.
This was no safe place for agents, politicians, or stars
To succumb to direct current and spin drift off in delight.
I have a compendium of dried bullshit, and I do delight
in it all for no reason, but the long shot with a spread
of some legs in the Dregs, or at sky bars with the stars,
that wear their sunglasses at night and in a set pattern.
Calling valet for their cars that passed a crash dummy's test
Litmused and abused by the best that I could never pen.
Simply because, they are too rich and phonemic to pen
against paper with vowels and consonants that delight
an audience of blind muffled sheep shaved for the test
Of us against them, alternating amps arc, powering the spread
Of extemporaneous brain-washings. They bend you to pattern
your DNA into a clone to be grown while you imitate stars.
From your favorite sitcoms, and from some heaven these stars
shoot guns into minds that Charlie Brown scars & Pig pen
cares about dirt that he tends in a Gratefully Dead pattern
as the girls all twirl in a whirl & carry sparks of delight
I wondered where I went wrong with the light that I write to spread
We all have our moments to address what we consider a test.
A station Identification of stars that are paid to thrill and delight
Me from this pen of slop and the lovely smell that words spread
A virus patterned from power grid, rolls our heads into a black out test.
