Find me

Find me in stains,
Cattle-call planes.
Insult to injury throbbing,
Poison apple bobbing.
Bottled in Bliss,
Harmless Ivy kiss.
Pinched blushed cheeks,
Snowless mountain peaks.
Grounded in dandelions,
Seduced by flaring sirens.
Compass point due doom
Elated off painters fume.
Desolate parking lot desire,
Shy of gold: true squire.
Draped salt and pepper,
Isolating midnight together.

Chipped pearls, bleeding gums.
Anxiety and War — always won.
Pickled panic, jarred content.
Perfection polished to resent.
Connect 4 fortress,
Sabotaging civil purpose.
Drink me like stiff cocktails
Discreet to what this entails.
Smooth oyster shooter
Stealth embedded looter.
Clouded forecast to forget,
The ceiling disapproval spit.
An open hand, dusted clean,
Tired devastation seen.
Urgency about to burst,
Stolen change, pleather purse.
For gone away, five: an illusion,
No other way for conclusion.
