Craving

testimony to a full glass of golden tea
ice breakers sail the ocean full steam at me
clamshell dividends launch their browsers wide
opening and closing before the tide washes inside

portly ponies prance upon the beach
watching the fluttering leaves on the limbs that they can't reach
table settings for uninvited fundamentalists
opposing corporate identities rivaling the guests.

out of grip out of timeshares
playing upon their civil liberties
salvaging anything among the rubble
the hulking remains of the industrial communities

craving their habits salivating over desire
they slip into domains beyond the sky
falling and soaring yellow clouds moon is full
still desperately grasping at broken fences

ride the sweepstakes over my feet
but don't write me off--i won't go
smile at the president under the sheets
and rip off the window coverings
