The Penultimate Poem

The waste is conserving. 
Yaks analyse coexisting fields endlessly. 
An obedient llama saws. 
Loosely, aimlessly roaming, a zipper grates. 
Raspy, raspy, raspy...
Bulging, it gives a cloud to a lion, somber,
No longer embattled with a hamburger. 
And jars of frantic hospitals.

  2. Might it be possible to be jarred back to some semblance of reality in a frantic hospital?

  4. Have you considered WD-40 on the zipper? Or have you been sniffing the propellant?

  6. No longer embattled with a hamburger is a good line. Reminds me of the painter David la Chapelle. Check out his painting of battle with a hamburger.
