Fast Day 330 October 5 2013 The Painted Man






The Painted Man

I cannot sleep within my bed
I must pace the hours of lead
cold recollect of new fall snow
ibuprofen
snow.

Christmas carousel candle
force my foot in ice sandal
frowning morning once again:
Washington news:
painted men...

the painted man’s a symbol
standing behind the demon door
kissing discord’s pomegrant
more hallowe’en
haunt

the businessman's uniform,
and deadly nightshade apron
seek to deeply sink their claws!
makes us rebels
without cause

notes

pomegrant  =   "pomegranate" as often pronounced as 3 syllables; the pomegranate is seen as the fruit of Persephone.
