Satyr’s Caul
The bushes are wet and awake with it
A Dionysian satyr reclines
in marble
legs spread, exposed,
fingers crossedbehind his head
forever lying in wait
a postcard from
tucked away
inside Virilio’s bombwritten on the back in red:

satyrs blow their pipes
behind bushes of ecstasy
Sargent’s Baila’ora dances through the trees.
ruled by running away
into the nearest escape routeScience and Medicine are constructs
a drowning man
flailing in the freakish Atlantic

above the fields of conversion
seated in rows: the gods of direction
joke and decidewith the nurses of despair
All the while:
A mirror disco ball spins
high above
