Read it like a knight

Whiplash Sandy
with a lot of torque
& a bouquet of dead
daisies on her
swollen chest

hairs like a jigsaw
on the back of
some clumsy lunar slave

nosebleed Mary
and an overused
matchbox
skipping high-voltage wires
with legendary skill

scabs like a mosaic
on the very same lips
of one more howling servant

and the tortuous path
downhill
of a myopic sneer.

As the poet placed this tightly-imaged evocative wrte upon the page with all the skill and bravado of a knight stepping boldly into the arena, so is one obligated to READ IT LIKE A KNIGHT. Exemplary work.
