Custodian Wanted

Wire my lips to the elevator
Elevator lifting and halting to a burn
Burn against the cords that cream
Cream into the shaft pint by pint
Pint the liquid blood to the zoo
Zoo full of hunger like frustration
Frustration and bubbles bumping a cushion
Cushion her legs around your wire
Wire her teeth till you make cream
Cream colored swords guard the zoo
Zoo crackers sizzle the elevator
Elevator call button finding gold
Gold colored moles glimmer then burn
Burn through his fingertips’ cushion
Cushion the modem below the wire
Wire the stash like Alcatraz Zoo
Zoo-keeper jacks the monkey’s cream
Cream she drinks tonguing the pint
Pint that spills; puddle the elevator
Elevator stuck waiting for two

(October 2008)
