ilk & painting

a postmodernist masque for robert bly   & that ilk 
after the painting titled
Ceremonial Orgies by Dog-eaters

ephemeral saxifrage 
blossoming
field after field

barack insane obama II:
a checkerboard, hold the checkers
a teleprompter with karma

ripening to scant 
scent fruit twirling 
into a whirl

barack insane obama II:
lord and savior of zedonks
& ninnyhammers

stars  bitters
bromides rock on
rock in barrel

barack insane obama II:
lollapalooza in a dolt cap,
dung tongue sponge

after barrel
somewhere a magic bee
stood on green pollen

barack insane obama II ate dog flesh*:
later he gorged on taxpayers
from sea to shining sea 

*nota bene:
he was barry soetoro
when he did so chow down

A slightly different version of this poem appears in my collection Turtle Woman & Other Poems
