Mr. Africa Poetry Lounge!
hotcake maker
sumbodygotadoit
you know?
spread out the land
on an iron griddle
that spits & fizzes
dancing grease
:pops:
batter undulates
rises and falls
craters' quiet
:plop:
eternity in steam
life in a dream
.
.
sumbodygotadoit
to stand there
with metal spatula in hand
white apron tied around spawning waist
with deep easy breath
:flick:
of wrist, earth
:turns:
born again
as each side browns lace
in the flames
of time
.
.
.
sumbodygotadoit
stack those smokin' worlds
parallel universes laced with butter
:tower:
high, smothered in a sticky reality
to wait for the silver spoon of
madness to shoot through the sky
bright with teeth
:click:
.
ah, yes
.
sumbodygotadoit
you know?
