Embryo Electrolux Esquire

Still brooded, uprooted
Back to schooner
Back room
Vacuum

Your bag, sir
Going stag
Up tossing
Little lad

Kids to raise kids and
Dropping dead
But not sneezing
Fleas in the head

Who knew better
Mrs. Butterworth
Folded arms and
Pressed pockets

If I ever see you again
Utilize you
Embrace what I could not be a part of
Knock you on your ever loving ass

Spread out and dandy
Dirty as the day is
Song of Abraham
With no hand to guide the cord

Sometimes the simplest
Evoking simplex
Never communicating through me
Your dusty bag

That unhatched cabbage
All frilly with folds
Only tightened to a bulb
And flushed from the system
Never missing
One beat but all
An entire galaxy
With tag and gift receipt

Pleats in bad places
Fleet footed and sugared
Deemed a sassy tiger
Begging expected success
Unrest for homeland
Cadillac Brougham land
The ballast so wobbly
Foible full and groggy

Soggy lungs no fun
Taking care of pebbly, rocky
Rebel in audible area
More earnestly tigery
Vaguely accountable for final touch
The process somewhat alarming
But making total sense
Abrupt and necessarily so
