“Magnificent Murder”

“Magnificent Murder”

 

Stomach innuendos.

Groveling.

Churning.

Sour milk spittle dribbling down a full beard.

Gnarly,

greasy pork belly sandos,

left in a midday sun.

Festered egg.

Sulphuric septon’s septum.

Assumption.

Ascension.

Dissension.

Circling down the colorectal assembly.

Emerging into the world.

A good throat on.

Hairy butter whispers.

Asking for a harsh quiet.

The kind that only comes of a rainstorm stopping immediately.

A fair tribute.

A barfed rebuke.

Python pyrrhic pre-puke.

Swollen gut.

In a rut,

Explosive nomenclature.

Dry-heaving hosannas.

Mimosas in a parked car.

Sunday hung over,

resultant hangover.

Bloody Mary governor.

Last place finishes are more complicated when your clothes are soiled.
