Orison

Orison is a lovely name for a greyhound
a courser below orb of moon

His bones will lie
in the pine needles but he shan't know

and who the fuck says shan't

It looks like Hindi

I am that greyhound, Senator...

My bones articulate fine delusion

My heart is a fine Meissen joke

But I am a mineralogist
when it comes to you

I am completely loyal

to my image of the moon's toothpaste

I want to burnish your venison, Sir

Please give me leave
to monitor the door
