CLOSER

by Nevada Kerr


Odorless but gory
Where a brain should be
Is an empty upper story
In a shroud of secrecy

Duller darling dollar moll
Infectiously befriending
Penetrates the virus wall
Stubbornly relenting

Bone elastic skin
Pathogenic breath
Profligate reproduction
Predetermined death

The cybernetic oscillation
Of unofficial flesh
The bubble popping din
Of thermoplastic sex

Scraping metal titillation
Beneath the factory bin
Simulated undulation
Impervious to sin
