Dynamism of a Dominant Monad

Posted October 4th, 2010 by Aaron Johnson in Poetry
            He’s at the airport now
Waiting in the wings
            Resigning himself to security checks and flight delays
Reading Thomas Pynchon and thinking Rod Serling
            Alternately
 
Malformed sidewalks lick the pacing legs
            Drifting slowly along the edges of the suburb
Up and down the way a dog
            Clings to its leash
Despite the splitting cells inside
            At riot to let go
 
            Cork-filled beaters line the walls of the basement
On hinges and taut strings
            And at the press of a button
They will hum into action
            Making a spectacle of the very simplest things
