Zinc
blue tinge in which misery
 is consumed
 
a proposed remedy
 galvanized over the day
 in collaboration with Venus' copper affectation,
balances on young mountains' fatigue
 
nodes of lodes, multi-nationally torqued,
emanate rustproof communications, promise
(green) glitter of baby-eye wobbling binary to
 minimum daily adult requirements,
 diluted milligrams bound up
 in chelated heavens, nourishing conductivity
 of temporal joys, time-released
 into trace beliefs manifesting
 in nervous systems in fast recession...
 
brass instruments seep into
 the last pure rivers, drunk
 from the source served bottled in
space, preventative for
 hair loss, skin lesions,
earth soldered together in memory,
re-designed to shield out
 sunlight, stay cool, earth
did offer a mix of hardnesses, densities, pennies
 of dangers agglomerate
 in fortunes, diplomacy amasses
 mental nuggets that pass
 into delicately-cut bearings,
cathodic collections of peace
 later alloy with struggling
 blue-rust war monument architecture...
 
melted in the mouth, poorly absorbed into
 cell ingots, there to minimize losses
 from speculation in its own & soybeans'
 futures, radicalized vapors
 of metallic dinners
waft free in illusions of face
simmering in Paracelcus' lab,
crucial 30s willing to metamorphose
 call out to steel from numberless sands
 & from what a vegetable lacks
 
('a coating which increases the half-life
 of radioactive fallout',
a pyrite is a chunk of desire
 lodged in the wristwatches of free trade,
merchandise exploding in
 realizations of youthful galaxies
fuses to well-loved earth's emotional dumpheaps,
batteries leaching into the water table,
recycled wishes match the clumped landscapes of their stars
bonded to inorganic dreams restricted
 in befuddling ores
drumming up languages 'dying' unstably
after saying stably simply goodbye earth
 
 

Magnesium
greens spark scintillating games, 
white wins, reminding 
nerves to reach everywhere, 
try reaching every worldpoint 
                before she cramps, 
her feelings won't be hurt, 
the white powder 
  is a miniscule cloud 
    in a processional of weather 
 in which the body's plans 
 expressed from the Periodic Table 
wed allergies developed inside 
  a pierced atmosphere 

* 
the desired panacea left the book 
  where it yellowed into a 
    step by step you-fix 
involving a specific chemistry of woman 
whose litmus colors 
seemed to match spectrograms 
  of very fast recession 

* 
floating kelp in shallow 
 seas, 
'matriarchal tides harvested for child support,' 
all this water fleshed out with 
kidneys, testicles, driven inland 
 to desert springs where small animals allocate 
 family size & an ethically straight 
  back, one day 
crawling into a porous rib launched towards 
  stinging, man-eating reefs, 
  foaming limed mouths, 
  colors of freshening gills 

* 
a primordial tremor missing 
  (don't know what you are?) 
  (moving on one condition?) 
a mine of mines yielding no sweat 
  in the body's 9 plus or minus wonders 

* 
nouveau animation, pancreatic, 
edits a conflicting moment, 
  sugary, moneyed, 
in which only humans talk, the art 
re-hears its thrashing bundles in critical muteness, 
alive in its relaxing digestive tract, 
smooths the spasmodic chip & slip 
   of crustal oh me oh my 

* 
one atom of chlorophyl focuses 
  the metallic luster of the plants' shield, words 
  an alloy of this 

* 
is the writer approaching his own material, 
a verdant savannah 
sustaining every herbivore 
 ever dissolved from a fossil? 



Thyroid
the body politic disorganizes into anemia,
nation by nation is sapped of iron,
red blood cells regroup
& production lines close in response
to a need to adapt to overcrowding
in an area the size of the neck, swelling
populations of smelter workers
 accumulate in fat,
shining filings taken off the heart
 numb layoff vigils
  into the sleep of antagonized dopamine,
model muscles waste aesthetically as vitamins fail
  to bring home a maple leaf's reds
     suspended in a heartbeat,
a gang's innocence
 is shot into space to observe earth's babyface
   aged with walls,
delaying well-planned crossings into her 'moonscapes'
where active imagination advertises gasoline
   to drive out thirst,
refined crude skill feeds on itself,
a few generations later disgorges its knowledge
farther & farther away from the Border's dinged bumpers,
while goats fatten on bile
 simply disguised as a temporary desert flower
& skills move like a persimmons' copper
by car through coiled intestinal concentrations,
surpassing fatigued rawhide fast-breedings
wreathed in cadmium smoke
(iodine can't find the breadbasket,
stranding 'who knows' in hemoglobin puzzles
trying to recover breath of health epiphanies
  'wasted on the young'
(beauty sleeps may redeem
dreams of missed travel connections,
hesitated-over destinations,
late carriers slowly re-direct junkfood enzymes
  to their places,
mines are detoxified after relinquishing
  luxurious catnaps tinkling
    on the Bomb's outskirts
(bodies war & war
to uptake depleted reserves of selenium,
hypo & hyper armies
were prisoner of a protein lacking presence,
a heavy metal exonerates its captor
& returns to apathy in fat,
dumped there with
   the lies of governments, it
diffracts a photon into a truce
  that immunized all sides
