ice 9 spreads now,
black exoskeleton of a lady bird beetle
famished butterfly on a steel
stalk
polluted pollen drifting through
chained prolific sacrifices
backwash of ballup
and then
metal bile rises
mortar bacteria seals
mercury fills long, green veins
there is no cure, there is no hope
it spreads like a maternal jellyfish
it spreads through libertine burger zealots
it spreads in giant salsa parades
it spreads on bologna and cheese-mobiles
it spreads between the teeny cheeks
it spreads inside the teeny bellies
it spreads and lyophilizes
and kisses us good
night.
