The City Council Denials

If this is what the Council is and does,

rapturous homicide, lust for its own sake

but toward ineptitude gives license

or frequents with pedaphilic pastors

diverts a gaze for false goodness of face

even smiles and while love is cast off

takes a deep and desirous breath of fresh

air as the fated hour approaches

when justice which will not be forthcoming

will be overtaken by depth's aptitudes

a mountain grow engorge a terminus

while the presence of peace is uncertain


again and again what is effaced falls

to gather in footprints of denials.
