Below grade, the under story
perfumes roasted rye
slab of sizzling meat
carbs of Manhattan
green glo Gunea boys
down nil one to Alleman
(in driving down pour)
chipotle ketchup
slithers long my tongue
lapping round tender molars.
That quest of right future
forgot by mushrooms
diced in egg
by New York man's man
from Africa
wielding bacon machéte.
Down under Ottawa
where plastic forks
lift another cheerful heap
of thigh fodder.
And cubes above us gather somber selves
double clicking now 'til noon.
