Hippopotamus

 Everyone has a hippopotamus story to tell. The strange excesses of these creatures compel the imagination with the moldering of a thousand stained presidents. Shooting hippos works wonders so enjoy hippos while you can. Granted, hippos fritter their lives eating grasses and water lilies when they could be stomping on choice examples of human industry and leaping for greenbacks. Weighing as much as anything humanly useful in terms of many tons, they sport a lively humor. Why not? The word hippopotamuscomes from the Greek for 'water-horse', suggesting that the Greeks didn't know--tant pis!--what a real horse looks like. The hippo's head easily matches the size of a cramped mansion, which is to say human imagination. Hippos run faster than you, swim like sylphs, and climb trees with agile grace. In groups they are called hippopotami, which sounds pretty select, intellectually speaking. Truth requires a certain vantage to bring forth the vibrations of the material world. Savour the hippopotamus residing in the verbs of contrived patience that regulate your passage thru the bristles of your world. Just don't let hippopotamus eat your riverboat or your head.

A List of Words

It begins with a scanning of light, a settlement of words. The lightly fracture of Bird sound begins in the office of seeing. Not sentiment but sense, as cool as Green in the Early days. Pasture resists nonpasture, no one Refers to none. All remains including nothing. Morning Is belief and there simply there. Tides go freshly to the point.

The Left of Intention

Blistered arrangement in Obama's plant. That plant is excised with cultured cells looking for the sun. Obama brands name in this stampede, and we leak alert. A new orange smokes upon the evening landscape, parlance for yesterday, then blue over the gushing land today. Stay happy with Obama, or paralax, or the motion across the kitchen floor, of something. Something secret leaves the hives. Something secret seeks the plant. The plant is poised like anything. Tussle continues, with new verbs vectoring the continuation. Obama bravely last the night, sweatshop slogan. Our President, haply, but effort contorts all known regions of meaning. The South, for instance, the West, the North and its East, and so on, dilations. There was a lake above. A blue and now it is shining morning lake. It was above, like the cat, or even more, when we are attuned. Obama battles with all words, Even as the proposition institutes some collision hardly to be compelled. All this exceeds ramifications. Our Pr...

The Citizen Would Leave

  Across lean tar pits of localised conveyance, news from sadly nowhere and other quackery. The entire rich crunch vibrates to the center, where stopping begins. Look where the adjectives go. The people as multiplied assumption and ducking away show causation by tumbleweed drift. Moral code exists as prosecution, pronounced as caring. Nuclear rocks decompose, discompose. Stictures from the one god populates the beaten numbers between us. We can all die with advantage to hear the startling judgment. The bonfire of Babylon made happiness exist. We cannot squeeze more love from this rock. Donald’s day has spoken, mellifluous tar.
