paste! urchins have four inches as their line of sight.
the tidepools enjoy the seasonal varietals;
dead seals and baby socks. the boy
crosses textures on his bare feet with those of not
wanting anything else. he stumbles
that the air patterns are different
higher up as the gulls gloss their necks
and dangling feet with static wings
just judging a little here and there
of huddling mischievious currents.
it's like that in a processor
when the bigger fragments of garlic
shoot up the sides leaving the rest for a finer chop.
then you get a spatula to scrape the sides.
then you get a flyswatter to chase the egg thieves.
little ones screaming down gummed streets
with eggs in their pockets and hands.
but they are so cheap! why steal?
one dozen eggs costs $1.29.
"that's a steal", say the dead seals
frolicking with the angels that drink lemonade with them.
the worst way to kill someone is to bludgeon
with a sock full of petrified garlic bulbs
and then take the body to the ocean
where a body of water can swallow everything,
especially Milli Vanilli
coming from a Chevy Blazer
parked on a cliff.
