Akashic Shotgun

Alex S. Johnson

I.
This is the place of union
the anointed pyramid
plucked from the spy’s
muscular eyepatch.

The dark sheds its feathers
and Dr. Doom has left the theater.

Did you feel
his omnishambolic chill
parting the mob
with claws of hypnosis?

Here suppressed
monsters of the Abyss
cling to the struts
of neuronal bridges

Theory litters the surface
with the tenacious grit of indigo
measuring swords at one of its extremes.

Now, brooding doves
twang the Aybss
like a tuning fork,
desire develops lovely recipes
and tongues spear the hearts
of bound and blackened angels.

Choronzon watches from the pit
Selecting the sex of the eaglet’s hourglass
that sucked the fruit
of Egypt’s auric ghosts.
