Covered with Feathers I Am Captive

with impunity and gold teeth

at the center for science
in the public interest

lawlessness had become the law

they told us you can pee faster 
and stronger

  defcon one

is worse than defcon five
the little tables

adorned with a skull

thorns in diverse places
I saw it on a t-shirt once

godspeed

  a time of weeping
nd whirling dust

requires a linen leisure suit

and pristine tennies
a house of conch shells

and quetzal feathers
