He had descended from his perch

 

He had descended from his perch
lean and beetle
to cause a stir
on metal boards
it looked like a pink chime
listing the hours
quickly done well done
matter of making you thirsty
if necessary to take the stage.

Flamenco lasted so long
only tap dances and castanets
tear apart their magnetic knowledge
to metonymic offers
à cru et à dia
women's eyes
compelled to consent to fury
of oculi out of their sockets
without the beast looking gray.

During that time
the grain was hoarded
by torchlight
scratching with their tremolos
the workers' lofts with the hoppers deposited
without the screaming dagger
does not satisfy the nasty poet
that border assignment
made sensitive to the mercy of the wind.
