Fleck

As the fat summer flies buzz,
feast on your cleaved torso

shall we walk together
towards past indignities

started ordinarily enough
as most others, in polite

banter. Your skin
shimmering like an unspoilt

apple, as you duck
your head into the van.

Somehow impulse lets loose,
the scaffold of reason

collapsing, the windmill of
desire suddenly severing the

veneer, blindly thrashing,
gaping, wildly open.
