Big emotions

Blend far too much at night

Face contortions

Flicker in candlelight

Blown proportions

Waft through door cracks

Misguided notions

Frightening and dangerous

Potions

Massage heart’s cross lobes

Lotions

Rub weary disappointments

Projections

Dance as elongated shadows

Affections

Are they right or infected?

Elections

Polls pop in precincts of stinky thoughts

One vote for this

Another vote for that

Results skewed in rinds

of eloping mind

Grind it all up

for some kind of noisy smoothie

in the night…
