skyscrapers & skulls i saw visions bursting balloons of disillusionment cowards marching to rules that have no exception demigods elevated in subjugation gypsyjews fifty-two men sixty-three women weeping, broken black feet in white socks white feet in black socks i saw into and through those who perform sexless masculinity who consume kafka & drink tea who recite prayer & write poetry who meditate rock & roll who contemplate platonic soul who tempt logic with symbolic fate who bargain moses for golden plate who walk like jesus in pool of hate who unconsciously investigate who ceremoniously copulate who in memory masturbate who worship feet & venerate wings who crown queens & castrate kings who procreate to pay rent who hold on to what must be sent i saw into and through those who grunt like rabbis in face of pigs stroking genitals of priestly twigs covering tears with cosmetic paste dying naked in majestic waste determining indeterminacy like dreams frozen at sea by fates flung randomly i saw visions shoot beyond sabbath dawn imagination forlorn forms of sensibility swirls of immortality killed by cat's curiosity
