Starkitecture

When it comes to who you want to blaze with
I told you dude, I’m deep dish
Establishing care in the flight path of privilege
I’m a sporty driving experience
Manet, Monet, and Renoir 
Pre-rolled into one
Sustainability in action
Micro-agential and techno-affective
A hydrating, volumizing flaneur in a fool’s paradise 
A literary puissance
Hand crafted, grass fed
Cisco Kid of light speed logistics
Sound baths and breathwork 
Crisco Kid on mini mart mushrooms
Teeth spaced like a rake
At my local break I go hard
I've never had a warmer, better fitting wetsuit.

Cold Moon Coming, The Amazing Kreskin Dead, part 2

While Earth spins on its other axis 
A three-to-five-year bid, rotisserie style
Amid the schtick of honor and decency
Agendas and scopes
A trope-a-dope of
Tales from the crypto
Abstract besidedness
Situated in the context of
Quantitative assemblages and qualitative continua
Up quarks and down quarks 
Datasets in performance shorts 
The proverbial confetti of rupture, rapture
Pet cemeteries and auto spas 
Concurring creeds
Handstands and drum circles
Long-term demand drivers
Showing cause
You’re like basically 
What’s the flavor of the month?
What’s the zeitgeist?
Does Thebes ring a bell?
But Autoplay stays stuck on taciturn.

I Hate Sleeping Alone

Sunset on stilts settles over the double-loaded 
Double-bacon loggia of the Casa de Blow Me Away
Like a bad dye job on a cheap hair piece.
There’s not a lot of hockey left to be played.
Getting old is like a panga boat landing,
A robust platform turned into a cheese board,
A mad cow beefing with itself
Serving at the seriously cerise, serene pleasure of
Double-jointed cyber risk manager, 
A John Singer Sargent cyber risk manager,

Some white girl, pretty
Shaping my world in real time,
Blush cheeks, dark red lips pale skin
Eco-effervescent and probiotic.
My heart’s a winged cosplay cupid and
I’ve always believed in stylish, see-through resort wear,
Total body workout for a better world.
My hands be on those intoxicating thighs.

First Thursdays Never Fall on the Eighth

An elderly ocelot renting space in a boojum tree
An X born of Y
Failed to launch into my markings
Keep tryna make it tits 
To remain impudent, jazzily yours
And ever gender fluent
In a bestiary plagued by a credit economy
The teeth of hounds, the bones of herring
The necks of turtles and the skin of sharks
Woof woof doves, baa baa unicorns.

Don’t go down every rabbit hole they throw at you
Driving with an expired poetic license 
Got me two minutes for slashing
Thinking without a net cost me
A game misconduct for fierce contact
Golden dome, long way home
I’m trying to snap out of it
Yesterday I drank myself young
An adaptive reuse of memory covered by my insurance
Keeping my fingers at arm’s length from my brain.

Next morning found him
Super unresponsive
Dead like my career 
dead on the floor.


DEATH

All faiths welcome.

A fathomless utopia of animated emotes
Coupled with a great food option.
It just feels really really special.


CUSTOMER PARKING FOR DEATH ONLY

Lot Full.

A little broth for those entrails?
