Writing from the stemistry lab
Southern trees bear strange fruit
by Christopher Barnes
Bent backwards from the factory,
Where fantastical architects
Bring off sky-dyed eyes
On Barbie-ribboned foetuses,
Monotonously trumped IQs
And unlame purse-touching.
From the monstrous bucket
The muffled mismatched
— Africa brown
Antityped with cells
That evolve into a lynch-rope.
