Candy bound to mangrove roots, bull ants, and reddest lines
South of the Mississippi
Counting cousins alongside
Imagism-borne caracals whip-smarting field-born foals
Ever at the ready to ensure the seering minds slip
From the deceiving cay puzzled whilst bringing to share
Darkest fruit before brightest crowds until we ourselves
Hang fire and fisticuffs for crumbs
Hold our tears and help burn the menagerie
Á trois, pourquoi n'est pas humaine
Seeds and earths called away too soon
Skinless mongeese must cease before revanche
Move with or join the slag made so by us
Not a moment more to perform as ally
Dash to your presses and record the evidence
We stay the beauty and you lose the majority
With tantric-level maintenance of ignorance
Such that it denies birds their flight
Or lassos the sunrise from anyone's skies but yours
To scar as you have any opposing minds;
Swans to trumpets and panthers to kin
Must we prepare nobly the pale for their turn in the flames
Refusing any crowns until homeland
Is a given and not arboreal memoranda
There is never justice
When a branch is her scale
Leaves the jurors
And obviation the trial
Arch enough for enemies and yoga
Performative democracy must end before we rise together
Hers, theirs, yours, shames:
Leave them with their knots and hoods
Bring their churches to their knees
Letting a blade most overdue
Abort their perversion of faith
