Crackle |

Sparkle, shaped

like eyes like teeth.

Cracked, spit-covered

and whistling warbled

songs, stopped.

Chalk, coarse, 

bent and canvased.

Metallic marks through

spread sheets, sheen

a coat, a title, a desk

a chair. Whispers

wondering why

which waste warm

willowed wastes.

Cocksure, creative

contrarian, divine.

Wishful thinking upon 

this foolish line.
