What Rough Beast | Poem for February 14, 2017

Adam DeGraff
Valora Blessing

Preening slaughtertooth’s fractal masticating
reminced mattered neurature, erascitating
balbously vaneristic raystrips, scrabbling
vaporous Valora, biflecting Daneumantheon’s
noiristicuffs, ramshackled.
Lunacopter’s bry
strobes arclining, Sartressa Suiz scorves
invertesimal haustetters, barclooning
Paladriola’s craxus. Indelphic Valora!
