SPRACHBUND by poet CD Barron

SPRACHBUND

the areal feature of your
dragon breath ..
a mammoth underground lake
in namibia where gold catfish
take breath from life
fed up on detritus .. where
ethelwynn trewavas weaves
an ichthyology with names of
fissured blinds & meteoric
irony close on lumped trace of
blue goblin & kobalos
impudence .. the sprightly pan of
your kabeiroi & kerkopean puckering ..
cave's entrance encircled with
a fly over tunnelling ..
al jaz'har's not knot of
ascendancy .. the dissent to
a nodding node of my
hic sunt dracones
interpreted every wyche way ..
acedic blood or targum of masoretes
alchemical bliss guide to the perplexed
potent as any tyrtamus treatise on the
peripatos of fishtails

Blog author's note - CD Barron is a poet based in Victoria. They were one of the first poets in the Australian contemporary canon who encouraged me to keep writing.. From amorphic airports to autopirate to ARP. As such, CD Barron was the first literary figure to like my work, before it was cool. Thank you Barron-ess X
