BODY IS TECHNOCRAT

This quartz for urinary tract health

gives a natural veneer to our partners

knowledge and difference

form a cosmic buddy system

for field spray

diverts a bonfire continuity error

good optics full-length barricade

grounds the fact that it’s hard

to come by an improper burial these days

days of Teflon bought and sold

by The Teflon Generation

Teflon Head
Beach Head
Collage Head
Custom Blend Head

a purge seems everything seems

hysterics who want to do so do so

even I have nonstick loops in/to/on/as

SUCCUBUS GIFT ECONOMY

I am using the paradigmatic form 
of a soap you like, 
the presentation of my own
original packaging       produced by   value engineering.

SIREN KIT includes: top, pants, and succubus transformation

a manager takes a bath
a synesthete takes a bath
a peer takes a bath
an imposter takes a bath

The cauldron blurs these roles
but defines and complicates the succubus form
to say something about      value engineering 
in a gift economy:

I got The Tower.

The succubi are so giving
in the cold plunge areas of the infernal backend—
feeling safe
at the pool’s edge

giving-accepting giving-confining.
When the rhythm is on scheme
it is not a sequence, but an adaptive nexus between
a parameter and a range object.
