the times were coming

When the plans stayed in place
Oven driven orange rind
Kneading tomorrow flying away 
Over window sills side gathering
Checking living room left behind
Liquid green and livered orange
Smash between two nets
Moon sung curtains sugar and hide
Drunk as cockerel spin
Stuck between faces
Ladles flounder.  
Leaven short of space
Fish break feeding masses
Oven canoes a shade becoming
Early by design
Sleep opens the deep.  It's already there.
Open dream book.  No texting here.
Where you are is guessing.  Read between the lines.
That circus, that merry go round
Keeps spinning.
