Barred Boxers

Waves from the chlorination
reaching a different world
muddy life bearing waters
carry stains of colorful oil
that pool in neglect
like unmown lawns

drunk with visions
of perfect sight
flipping the grill
down the sharp angle stairs

looking back with fear
this is the life of tears
the jungle fit
carriage horseless hypocrite

words wasted and melted cheese
grounded beef excess preach
to physically conquer graffiti
contested to sure defeat

and wanderings
changing ratings
desolations
long sufferings
to raise pleasure
for one or the other
experience wild ecstacy

thinking
concluding
company.
