Lucifer



A case of the Mondays spins him
in circles, pissy little brat
& his petulant cheeks
ripe for biting: brought us into light
& gets fed venison bits in return.
Where there were spiral
notebooks, there too were pentagrams
poorly rendered but potent in their
fury. No such seals mark the
e-books available on Kindle,
an Apple app for voice recognition
as prime directive for the reaping
of the masses while crouch
the cabal in protective circles.
Son of the morning, but not a morning
person per se. Eats dinner well
past nine, does not obey local
noise ordinances.  Stars
& garters meaning something
altogether different in the legions
of Legion.  Moth-winged,
lead-footed, always ready
with rejoinder or riposte
for post-dumb paragons.
Your man in the east for Western
anomie, the heavenly phone-tree
so vast & irritating.  My man vibrates
the entire shebang.
