Normal

the spaniel jibberjabbered its bronx in cardiac silence
fleeing the tippertape from flying carbuncles and fribberfrap
all in the talking of rug fried toothpicks and sadwrap wine
lessons in noodles were all for fishing
the trout was out player piano
got a goosestache instead
just the wax and settled for clear
in dreams of white and orange-gold
black and red tinting in tents
war called for bachelor quarters
in bleaches of wine gone turpenoid
all in a gas with a huff and a steam
the jackass removal a farmhold away
dusting its shirts in distancing shelves
all the corks popped up and sneezed
the baggage too long, the mustard too hide
and the screen before the trash compactor
eating stations of grace in long letter line
a long nose squiggle came unkempt
sniffing rafters shampoo left behind
in court rooms stout and beaverbuilt
ill chords of beef trout and tanner
the little molecules let get away
washed under sewers of severing clay
when tolstois just wanted to be loved, just loved
and kickercounters went splay and hay
done up in doodle racks and onion spring crime
knocking in noodlehead crabs of spray
doneforth fingerfangered
toothspring flaggered
haggard as buggerdeeboo
as lunch snapped the kite sky
seesaw as toodleloo
i gotta go
flingerflangered flish and flush.
