Poem of the Week
December Crumbling
Ian Marlowe

December is crumbling
under the wandering eye
of a scurrilous sun,
like dirty snowflakes
we digress into the mundane:

You with those emotions that get
in the way of that and this and I
mumbling condolences for the way
things often go as we spit-trip on
colloquialism while the world

revolves on its complacency
with six billion passengers pondering
the Rorschachian legend on a crease-strewn map
gone through too many fingers,
passed among too many hands --

We are as molecules
humping in the night,
replete in our randomness,
chaotic in our endeavor,
as particular as the drivel
on the lips of a feral god
trying to wipe us clean
with the back of its hairy hand --

And we are back to you and I
with this and that as randomness
goes stiff like the rods and cones
in my wandering eyes.

As always, I will try not to notice
the spittle on your too full lips
and what goes on there as December
crumbles and six billion molecules
find their libidos in the dark.
