Drafts are fine,

but never in All Caps,

never.

Obscured by that refreshing waterfall

and the re-runs in the waiting room trying to put you to sleep.

Adjacent to a fountain and definitely not a loch.

Assuaged by seemingly endless bromeliads

a royal tip purple at the spout, where all the fucking plant blood pools.

Gentle honeysuckle if your not looking,

regular honeysuckle if the restaurant is out of it.

It all stinks of chlorine and captivity .

Captured , drawn and quartered out in front of the fountain

by the HOA, like were in some film.

and now your DOA, in violation of you and whoever else’s CBA.

if your not directly under those bright spots,

or in duress under water or in captivity,

lay next to the solar flares;

drift upwards towards the canopy.

Both are reaching out to tell you something,

both ended up calling collect;

maybe it was something about volition

or maybe it was something about the gargantuan
