ruraled urban melody: in 2 parts

by Kelly Jensen

I.

dried o of a honeyed mouth
in looped lettering motions
swerved unreason

dripped quarter note half note
plagued melancholy &
strung surface, glossed
a silhouetted stranger

midnight wrens swell
melted skylines – blushed browns
pricked thimbles
sliced sails, belabored bays

carmelstick finger attachment
to an unknown
knocking brassy chimes
cheap boxed wines
lingering inebriations



II.

breadcrumbs:
shoelaces / retreats
busted rails
&
rusty nails

reflections inside(out)
mellowed goldfish bowl glow
beckons like an autumn’s hymn

lucid

lucrative mechanics
scattered glass like broken bones
embers etched
elements persistent

a neon bow
her hydrogen dances
mahogany

springtime elegies
only the narcissus navigates
