The Damned

Fishhook of desire,
Dolmen tomb of
Snakes, this lake

Of form and measure,
Abandoned lot
We ring and sing

As if it were a savior.
Meanwhile the campfire
Of imagination

Creeps to the edge
Of the forest.
Someone’s stroller

Catches some smoke,
And it’s screams and
Belly flops into the heavens.
