"Slammed by Nightmares"...

" Slammed by Nightmares "

Mom & Mom-

Slammed by nightmares
fathers manufacturing mannequins
mothers sewing split seams
while reading from fashion dailies

being spotted early feeling
in the mood for publicity
via institutes of technology

by dressing human beings
resting firmly on bodies
of documentaries
while still in college

planning to spread Dada
with occasional sidebars
for perching artists

like bumper crops
for wanderers
just prior to departure

ardently well-stocked
with backup
pickup truck parts

as spare as tell-tell details
like defuse fusions
of thorny thistles
with clip clothes pins...
