Untitled 1

 
From the Cataclysm, 

                   a girl named Pepper
emerges: a sausage from a cluster
of fey-grey petals. Drone-
                          bodied and doily-tatted, 
                                                   she wooed
 the Blue Blazer--
                   brass-buttons a-jingle--
 into pale dismastment.
                        Beer-rings blossomed in the fog.
