flimsy grandiosity
uncounted clouds swarm over
hoarding droplets in confusion unfiltered
without gravity manifesting itself, but
enmeshed in journeys digressing into mist
unruly waters undulate into
streams in upheaval, folding over boisterously,
unassuming predecessors of life’s genesis,
torrential cosmogony roaring into being
unmeasurable hillpeaks impose above
and pullulate over pure arrogance, they harken
like coiled snakes vying for an escape,
churning, tossing, upending their fate
unmatured wood strands soak beneath,
they breed as masses of temperate searing veils
betraying the odious necessity of forgotten
multiplicity and undercurre indulgence
unmatched predators soar up catching thermals
they teem into insatiable frenzy, permeating
valves of escape and clogging any channel
of declarative possibilities secreted away
unfathomed vultures swoop down violently
spreading an inflection of distressing signals,
populating overcrowded nests in eagerness,
basking in excess and flimsy grandiosity
