Our lease on heaven

Антонина Тесленко
to clench our lease on heaven
we rub roost and sway
in a greem sweaty dance
with casro in the hills
and appalling creeping rumors
like lusty busy hammers
have their way
skillful clamorous
ignored
with hell to pay
and the funeral wreck
eventually
fetches up
to deathly wall
of filthy silk
