Delirium and SpidersA Poem by Amorette DuvannesTonight, red. Twirling, burning red, Fork of dreams, carry me along, Tonight, the red. It speaks. It speaks. Everything, every limp wick, it bounces up, Irons it's kink, tonight, everything. And Nothing, maybe at all, maybe ever. It runs. Like desert sand beneath The palpitation of hot-blooded animal Paws. Like reality, it downpours Into unzipped DNA coats, delirium And spiders. It continues within the grave Of the mind, with the jester's ashes in fits. I remember it well, recall it hard enough To wonder what case I'm living. Acquitted of The Amendment, I straddle forth on my desired Horse, it's muzzle a pit for cigarette buts. It tries to chuck, chuck me off, but I am not Governed, governess. I am dead. I am the last one.
