Vascularity

Neon channel, licked in flame
elbowed up through shadow
branching darkly
circling rush, capsules tumbling
jostled plasma
branching finely down
to single file
basket fulls aroma
enriching gravy, amino broth
feeding all the scaffold webs
grey mouths craving
toothless mouths a-sponging
not fully quenched
they're oozing threads of wax
bile and pus
phlegmatic trickle
hoppered into baskets
like sushi plate flotilla
clatter back
sour gassing up
percolating sludge, it's
merging into blue, it's
squeezing up
swarming into clouds
copper clouds transpiring
exhausting past esophagus
drains out onto
indigo

vapours melting into light
swept up by the frost.
