Artwork: The
Pecking Variant by Will Jacques
Planet Yizzaro
Stephen Druce
On Planet Yizzaro, crawling corridors
of glazed limpets in clustered folly,
cascade a symphony blossom to tantalize
the tattered artist in a towering squalor
of lampooned puppets ablaze,
plunged in feral escapade,
a dalliance interlude of watercolor
vessels drip their fluttered meadows
for willow portraits in starry infancy
and shimmering bliss,
hounded by the giddy margins,
the creaking valley – listless for rhapsody,
mutters its hollow blessings in a saintly
pattern of glimmering sapphire –
the treasured muse in slender desertion.
