                     (Jim Kessling, 1982)


Eyes stare unblinking,
Inscrutable, thoughts
Revolve in
Cylinder,
     -Burial shovel
     -Scrapes recalcitrant
     -Crust, working
     -At edges;
Nape warms, shirt's collar
Hedges, throat's downward
Visible
V first play,
     -Clay embedded rock
     -Impedes inroads, each
     -Squelch marking
     -Inch achieved;
Dabs, brushed strokes perceived,
Canvas flat rustles,
Fluids slosh,
Rhythmic thrum,
     -Seismic discharge, scorned
     -Sediment, levered,
     -Leaving jigged
     -Impressions;
Chest compressions pegged
To tight scrutiny,
Given out,
Taken in,
     -Indentured routine,
     -Disentangling a
     -Face off with
     -Long held roots;
Compelled engagement,
Equivalent for
Adam in
Adamah,
     -Ground aggregate raked,
     -Mineral, earth tones
     -Suspended
     -Across field;
Close apprehended,
Flat circumstance of
Reluctant
Cake batter,
     -Submerged transcendence
     -Shouldered, smooth defaced
     -With wrinkled
     -Outpouring;
Wide-screen replicate,
A lisp redacted
When keeper
Sent on break,
     -Scale leaps, restraining
     -Stanchions, rope toppled,
     -Clarity
     -In lightness;
Full cape to mansion
Transmogrified the
Idea
Of shelter,
     -Beethoven delving
     -Silence composes
     -Thunderous
     -Symphony;
Tympanic cadence,
Steady buzz going
Down massaged
The message,
     -Surreal Socratic
     -Dialogue holds that
     -Corydon
     -Herds contrails;
Mono lithe, mythos
Antidote, shirt thrown
On, fingers
Run through hair,
     -Butt rode chair, barber
     -Ruffled top, shook out
     -Drape, the boy's
     -Eyes twinkled.

Shirt off kilter, fence
Post neck lines base of
Flower pot
Spider plant,
     -Checkpoint misaligns
     -Feather, visor pops
     -Cv in
     -Ghost's retreat;
Locked up in masked guise,
Scatching at sutured
Lines for blood
Coursing through,
     -Musk shatters under
     -Detachment pressure
     -Embedding
     -Particles;
Muttered critique broke
Spell, compelling a
Strategic
Scoping out,
     -Clairvoyent, tacking
     -Port, resurrected
     -Sail which caught
     -Winds blown past;
Clear-sighted, in close
Quarters, jackhammer
Heart rattles
Comportment,
     -Thoughts sewn fast, eyes knot
     -Buoy below deck
     -Crow's nest kept
     -Debunking;
Rethinking allowed
Virile conveyance
Once harbored
Now floated,
     -What sunk, when yellows,
     -Blue washed, flushed in reds,
     -Evincing
     -Engagement.
