Poem Nr. 13: Ka-Boon
Exploding.miracle of past unloading
Enrolling fabric of the primal tolling
Feeling through your ratchet as you color your stones red
Imploding destruction of scales decoding
Controlling panic of the final poling.
Falling through your hatchet as you holler your wars dead
Helixfinger Out!

Never wish death, for death wishes you ...

Six. I sense ...

Hello, ducks!
