    I gyrate like a whelk in the welkin
    (see me slapped with just his head)
    off see his stars flamed out all put to bed
    and we fobbed with Macaulay Culkin



    Herr Major

    as swilling at their feed
    they come and belly-up in threes or fours
    quincunxing one who had no need
    of telling off the ruddy bores
    so munch me kin and bite me kith
    I fancy you’re a wayward myth



    Demogorgon

    an alteration upon this common sense I dicta:
    a happenstance upon this phone
    ya bologna

    and another case and étui or pincushion
    follow the words see scattershot
    all around the humdrum hills

    practical definitions practically dumbfounded
    go for a pitchfork song in the way of things
    in the way of things
    in the way of

    broad is the avenue not so much as
    once it was and
    brought down to size

    all the citizenships were in
    hock and bride-ale
    that is good ruin

    as parsecs to Parsees
    hymns to Hindustanis
    pheromones to Pharisees
    and Mohawks to Maharanis
