After Vaccines

We here at Frank Sauce have established, a priori, a formlessness of forms Nothing's too inconsequential or magnificent for our wandering eye In that, a peace becomes us A lull and then a quickening followed by another lull The form, we would like to write, is a life lived in the lives of lies for our own truth

I ate a sandwich for lunch It was a decent enough sandwich I should bring in my own sandwiches from home, since I can make more of a sandwich then I can buy

Little manifestations of a self salinate another self on these sidewalks

"Yes, mother," we should say "We are the great head together"

There were blooms on my walk at lunch and we both felt they were the last flowers between the flowers and us They stood up to the high-rises; the flowers proud within their lamppost baskets Some had given themselves over to the sun, while the others centered in their pots and ripe pistils Their stems and leaves satiated the sun, but not the buildings built back up these last few years The other flowers' calyxes seemed eager inside their bodies

Everyone here wears war though only a few of us notice the wars in each other Instead, we glance at our sex and smile mischievously on our way to buy books, coffee, clothing or food

I come here to find work after a great lesson forgotten

I'll try to write as little as possible. I'm a little man with high hopes, pipe dreams and little machines inside that keep me writing.
