OBTUSE MYSELF

The hard core cult was fixing 
the flies on the podium. 
A snapdragon becomes a cannibal 
devouring its own seeds. 

Beyond insanity lies the phantom zone 
where you hang upside down your faith. 

A lunatic threatens to jump 
from high tomb – 
after excavating the remains of 
a forbidden fear. 

There was nothing except the 
worn rags of a fakir.
