BROKEN OMNIBUS By Strider Marcus Jones


in

out

about


another

day

of centrifugal


do

and

doubt


at home

in town

going down.


so out

the sun

like some


great

worshipped one

looks on


this

primitive

petri dish


thinking

back to the

beginning


one time

thinning

bliss


in opus

of ordinal

opulence-


such unfurled pus

unevenly spread

like jam on coronation crust


seduced by alchemy's golden thread

to Mephistopheles sun splashed bed

but seeking exodus


with the Creator

back to nature

in a broken omnibus.
