Missed Connections

Freewrite Thursday is the new Freewrite Friday. Poem after the pic:

don't hate.

“Missed Connections”

standing like a confession
in the fish aisle
your brainstem leaking jewels
——————–let
me gobble these up
for you
——-vicious harmonics

architecture O
pipes
—– abuzz
———– muzak stank
——–fish
stain

pseudo jazz furniture refrain
——————–I reckon
viscous ephemera
in abundance
————-of emeralds
your cod pecuniary hopeful
pump of your sashimi heart

unroll your carpet of cauliflower
such an odd occurrence of tongue unfurled
—————-I demand
to understand the wicked
ways
—–of your cole crop

what you seek is cruciferous
the missed connection of a
paper cabbage
—————contemplating cabbage

contemporary abundance
————————–well
————–it takes one
————————–more than that
————to know then
one’s self
———who happens to have
———sold the food
——————– -soul as fool’s gold
when what we need is the new biggest boat
