HOA meeting at the Milpitas Embassy Suites ballroom

the vents murmur its numbing melody
it drowns us with promises of
cold comfort, teases my drench pores
with every precise mechanical shutter

silent portal -- barracuda barbwire --
i blame the cows --
shot them dogs.

big dogs as pillows at night
amend amend
annexed like france

- dewatering wells --
-- wells wells wells wells wells
wells wells wells wells wells
wells wells wells wells wells
