in the poise of seepage

incredulity

incipient bloat

perpetuity’s foreskin

pared to an a-meristic anachronic opalescent

undulance, in the shingled extravagance of

momentary let, a cache of resplendent accretion pearls an

inebriate puncture,

rouses this

bulation

seep in brood bedlam

         apostrophic rampage            helter welter

  collar holler yelp yeller giddy gallop gap song yup-a’long

yo-fiddlediddle            hard alee get a ped-i-gree

         wing wring wiggle wrack wattle

flossed to an inebriate

meander

salience teems
