Old as Christ Aspens and Turpentine Reins

reins soaked in turpentine
turning black the color of
dark circular beards on quaking
aspens old as christ spotty as hell
religion sorely mistaken for aspen bark

she supports her
campfire with willow
twigs that snapped her
out of capture and bent
her more toward the sage
grouse's habitat where the
long-term effects of that
campfire draws out the spirits
of turpentine

old as christ aspens
have a smell like a woman's
crotch ancient and pissy tang
turpentine reins white spirit guide

alchemical preponderance
flashpoint combustible
superiority ignites ego!

dominant forest
spatial reasoning
old as christ aspens
and turpentine reins
