A Dustless Excavation       by Mark Daniel Milbocker

I
The schisty scaling of calcified conceptions
surrenders to the hydraulic churning of
boiling bubbles of the zeotrope momentarily held
as if staring hard enough at the hypnohelix 
would lift you above the eternal pyre crackling
while still domiciled in mortared heart stones

The last fitted keystone completes the wall entombing
until grinning it shifts round to an undiscovered chamber
of a heart unshielded from experimental arrows exploring
probing between the muscles of rehearsed rituals grown
swole with orgiastic excursions into the improbable
the unteachable sunburn of gazing at celestial bodies

The magnetism of the moment modulates between large
ferrite lumberings on an unbotherably vast scale 
while our rice grain brain lays painted silver

into the flaxen plane of sandstone dreams ground away
