" Urged On "...

" Urged On "

Urged on
to upper echelons
donning
the period garb
of microbiology
miming dialogue
going viral via piracy

enveloping puff pastry
and glazed dates homemade
and highly praised
by caterers and crepe makers
for freelance film takers

ensconced
on staircases
becoming
rarer by the day
recessed
off of the nave
as a crazed
style location workplace
in between generations
of austere Chardonnays

onerously craved
difficult to detain
like snarling rage
exposed
and desiccated
in the light
of climate change
heads shaved
birds-of-prey gazing
eyebrows raised...
