Insinuation

Despair dangles from an orange branch
above yellow swimming clouds,
insulation, isolation, insinuation
of a separation
as life undress the living;

Despair dangles from an orange branch,
Swiss cheese melting,
cold feet, naked chest,
the striptease of life
without crowds cheering;

Despair dangles from an orange branch,
ratchet straps embracing rafters,
a loose noose cravat
supports a pendulum swinging;

Despair dangles from an orange branch
above yellow swimming clouds,
insulation, isolation, insinuation
of a separation
between the lived and the living.
