brimstone disco

The remainder of bricks
still standing after the big burn
bleed with the wit of wizards
now that the galleries have gone

The first shall be last
and again the shaman
reclaims his throne

The scryer sees
through the gasoline
as the steps of the ziggarut
are paved with cigeratte butts

discarded silicone chips  
soaked in witch hazel
are laid to dry
under an angry sun
so the crystal
can be harvested

Telepathy with the ghosts
of wireless communication
as they wrap themselves
a tarnished but current receiving silver
around the necks
of the last of the
indigo children

The baby lion
learning to swallow
purrs against the scarlet lady
