PINBALL

By | 31 October 2021
Coins take me
snorkelling
through a pinball sea
turbulence

silver-ball salvos launching through
pyrotechnic scopes, melody storms, mind splits
wireless static, bubble pop, synthetic spiral shafts

to downtown
where New Year resembles
a grave-site of meteorites — gloss metallic alchemy
rampant, on the blink
flippers jerk the viewpoint
deadly halogen eyes beam, stimulation overload
pectoral fins
game-some turns erasing inhibitions
bleeding tamarillos

these diamond encrusted goggles
render anonymity
dazzling frames attract

galaxies
fluorescent krill, tourmaline and tangerine turn
iridescent algal green

and rupturing sediment
spurts
primordial haze consumes
the machine grinds down

the salvo stops.
