nietzsche

this animal
ache
will penetrate
the stars
not stopping to lick clouds
or envelope sky
the animal
claw
will tear through solar flares
sparks of sun and moon ink
dripping in falls
of fur and oil spills

shooting bullets of WARship
whizzing past my eardrums
(they beat to a pattern of capitalism)
this animal
will bite
through its cage
of sugar thighs
and
fleshy petals
lining the floor
will be
crushed
under its gigantic
[paw]

crowds of humankind
will gather
to watch
this apocalypse
take place
in oceans
of virgin stitches
untying
the thread
bit
by
bit.

the animal
will run
through
the doppelgangers
humanitarians
grammatarians
and six flavors of
dragon scales

this animal
will see
the very shadow
that haunts
the visions
of
every
political
party

black and white
ballrooms
being torn
to shreds
by
gas masks
chemical suits,
potassium iodide,
and nuclear, chemical,
and biological survival gear.

snowcones
drip to
form sanguine stalactites
this animal
sucks the cream
from
its
willow tree
hole.

the leaves fall in
place
of
Animal Snow
bark splitting
like
fractured
hips
and fractured
debates.

Greenfields
and Plantations
will
cease
to crease
in the furrow
of grey matter
and
branches will scatter
like
one thousand
and twenty five
catfish
who just
realized
they cant meow.
