concentric rings
are an art
a finished poem
in a victorian landscape
sent
a drunk
amid worldly boundaries,
fizzled personality
begetting ire
in a zealous tribe
of course
focus
on the flying
genuine reader
taking shape again,
a mute cloud
following the disorder
of the winds
His puzzling breath
trauma below
to the unbroken
heart:
a consciousness
periodically devoid
of oxygen
a sadistic style
that is all but
guaranteed
a rabbit-hole
of relief
from the annoying
anthropic
struggle
the presence
of water
is a pedicure
in value
trembling emotions
are frightening
and prove
that life is easier
to live
in the cocksure arms
of an almond tree

Very nice. Lots of interesting leaps in this one, Arthur.
