4. FOUREYED JACKS<br />

skewed jacks are bouncing stripping<br />

off <strong>the</strong> world’s coating, striping<br />

it with jackshine, falling through around<br />

<strong>the</strong> ball bouncing, <strong>the</strong> head ducks under jackfall<br />

and comes up grasping, <strong>the</strong> jacks inside responding,<br />

revolving, silting along sunless canyons,<br />

mending, rending, eating scum and making bargains,<br />

jacks are gleaming, glowing and preening, <strong>the</strong> light<br />

inspires <strong>the</strong>m, <strong>the</strong>y arc and blow on it, <strong>the</strong> jacks<br />

complain, croaking and maiming, spanning <strong>the</strong> skies<br />

with degrading hues, <strong>the</strong> jacks impair, bear down,<br />

fit squarely, implode <strong>the</strong> caverns, bar <strong>the</strong> latches,<br />

melt <strong>the</strong> lairs, unwind <strong>the</strong> stains, sear <strong>the</strong> salty,<br />

pierce <strong>the</strong> faulty, arch and beam, skip and gleam,<br />

parse <strong>the</strong> margins, pool in legions, spar with<br />

ardor, rot <strong>the</strong> larder, bloat <strong>the</strong> dying,<br />

excuse <strong>the</strong> frying, remodel blouses, right<br />

<strong>the</strong> landscape, pelt <strong>the</strong> fireside, own <strong>the</strong> porches,<br />

steal out roaches, seal <strong>the</strong> lovely, scrub<br />

small children, bury <strong>the</strong> castles, renovate trestles,<br />

heal <strong>the</strong> laundry, mash <strong>the</strong> wanderer, jacks<br />

implore, devise, dictate, <strong>the</strong>y fall and flow,<br />
