To wit : the earth is polar planated
With the equator inflated, a bit .

No turtles that paddle distantly down;
No planets rattle around terra lown.
No dome with windows flung open to rain;
No storm god in blue scopes an icebound plain.

Rocks are a library of history .
Microfossils in fissures,
Bubbles of bacteria :
Protozoans that came
Before the Cambrian .
Eukaryotic hammer of the gods
Cracking the carbon floodgate,
But in the record :
Death is no wider than a knife edge .

*[ WSB ]_.

The wrong thinker tinkers,
Wheel out of round . Twisting spokes
To straddle fences, rattling
With spinning plates downtown .

A tired juggler .

A spurting performance
Of ergs out of sync :
Misspoken symbols clash .

Back and forth futility
Crashes to the ground:
The stage indifferent .

“ The pruning of justice ™ ”

Running hot
Engine in the steam of Hell ;
Jingle valve ringing
Like a Christmas bell :
Off a geothermal vent,
Unbolt the vat .
To trap the devil,
Change the thermostat .
