BANK TO BANK – SPLENDĒRE VITRO

Etiolated authorship sprouting dusty day censorship

Daylight frank hank remanent

Why is Achilles doing this

Jack

Floating world enchantment still oozes

The bigger the breeze

The harder it chooses

At a pinch a finch blows

The higher it blows

The stronger it flows

Foundation fatigue shaves mountains and slows

Advancing haptic static

So when you shoot the arrow at the fish aim below the tail

–Daniel Boyd, 2022
