Observational niceties aside, cantilevered cadavers floated by on a procession of possessed monkeys, an inning too soon.

Jeremy understood the other half of the drawers would open if the light bulb were replaced in the same way as the lawn mower was displaced, but he had not found the time nor the will to infiltrate that deep into this psyche. Janet found everything just as uplifting, but befitting another ghost of cities past, she could only go as far as the closest star on the walk of famous stars in limbo. Jeremy and Janet put their heads together and said ouch! And he saw her stars and she saw his light bulb go on and both halves of the drawer opened for each of them.

The cadavers thought nothing of it, having observed with preposterous care the long-found valley of the canny wits.

Branwell’s taxonomy of frightened penguins

Reusing the next-to-nothing container of bewildered particles, carefully placed graduate students deciphered the behavior of ancient melodies begotten by jangles of toil and strife.

The knife-edged razor plunged into the bare farewell of Branwell Brontë, annihilated against all odds with Odd Fellows following its fellowship of a dozen or more frightened penguins. Alight with desire, constrained by conceit, trundled by superfluous wildebeests, the carnival barker brought the condition of local labor unrest to the maternity ward and delivered as fine a line, as fine a wine, as fine a sign of joy in Mudville as ever graced its streets with clarified horn blowers beguiled by blood and tepid corn dogs.

Particles participated in the acceleration program of ancient melodies, declining politely with a veil of feeble laughs.

Bazaar of dark arts, entangled

  painting in the style of Georges Bracques of Samuel Pepys in front of a stack of pancakes smothered in syrup with
  sprites filling the air of his earthly delights. A hammer.

He had to look away–for a moment, for an eternity–for in that moment, everything went to pieces forevermore.

Ravenous for details of earthly spite, sprites of forgotten, woebegone empires peeped into the laundry of Samuel Pepys, warming the cockles of their heart of dark arts whether the bread was dry or smothered in syrup. The pinnacle of their joint success was in winning the pinochle tournament seven years to the day after the founding of the consort’s bazaar–where nothing was more bizarre than the martial logic of the cardinal’s virtues. Flames lament the fallacies of felicity, but grace was bestowed on all in equal measure whether they liked it or not.

She picked up the pieces and assembled a colorful mosaic along the path to her eternal garden of stones.

Solstice of eternal millipedes

Visit https://almostmeaningful.com/solstice-of-eternal-millipedes | Reading Ulysses in Montana #229 | Oil painting in the style of Edward Hopper of a millipede and a centipede dancing the tango in an orange arena of earthy delights, fizzled with a screwdriver and an anvil, and geraniums all around.

Reading Ulysses in Montana #229

Ginger calculated the divisible eons of geological time to within a fraction of a millimeter using the millipede as the standard unit of time and the river running through it.

George confronted the centipede of elaborate requisitions and the myriad parentheses of cylindrical meditations (and Samuel Johnson’s toupee), which promised infinite infinitudes in the volume of irreparable constellations of mirrors and molecules gathered in the allotted brevity of moribund equinoxes. Typographical figures and hieroglyphic rudiments were a little too sentimental for Ginger’s taste, but she inferred the vulgar air of ratification and enunciated the proclamation of disputed and diminutive treaties on treats and threats of impeding gloom.

George gave Ginger room to glow, but he bestowed teasing images of mutinous months across the eons of geological time, with chance happening to us all.

A tincture of sinners in a tea of time

Carrying things of wax and habit, Dominic blessed the floral tea cozy with the twin quarrels that afflicted the tincture of sinners.

Jacky told Dominic her adoration was illuminated by the sea of day, the sea of time, as an affair of tides embraced her gently, yearningly, forging the real man and the troubled canary bird. She threw out the dishwater herself alone, while Dom shouted after in a dolorous confession of love.

Love for Jacky, not the dishwater.

You can keep your lips, chap!

Conway believed it silly to fold the sheets of the bantamweight too tightly over the outspread collar smuggled in from the fleshpot of Philly. Betting the cod to place at Ascot, sharp voices of bricks won the Christmas raffle of turkeys and sports. Sports and turkeys. Turkeys of sports.

The pleated cyclist gave her messenger boys a gift of a horseshoe to doubt in an instant the raised eye of Conway.

Cheerfully, you can keep your lips, chap!

The free parameters were no longer free, but they were cheap–cheaper by the dozen, or by the tens as spoken in metric-speaking countries.

Regaining solid footing, the feet entered into competition with the late-arriving souls, lost on their return from Machu Picchu, the Panama Canal having gone to the ball game for a brief tour of duty. Corresponding rules of particularly proper rank harmonized with the layer of crystal in the distal colon, around three o’clock in the evening. Injected seas into the parapets of offence caused plenty of trouble for the partial parameters differentiated from the colorful mutt on Saturday morning cartoons. Miraculous weather and innocent doubts abound in the outfield under the spectatorship of the Suez, at three o’clock in the evening.

Water stroked the shore with an isle of corn plantations until the plaster lost its buried knees aloft.

Harold heralded the hounded mouth of Flemish faces, unresisting one idea for another.

Bunches of flowers bunched up in hunches of bananas laid bare by the hare of Haverstrom Circus–elephants included in carnal throstle. Morning nudged at begrudged judges of Bournemouth, and old men tendered their pennies for a roll of the dice. Ignorance to the contrary, the pastries bamboozled pure joints of mutton and sharp fibers of etymology as prim as a pram. Friars of gold and silver, that is. Warrants of opposite kinsmen singularly availed themselves of Woodcock gin, blowing their weekly salaries on austere humors of state, having come from softer climes.

Yellow stockings heralded Ginger’s memories of Harold, but Walloons thought better of it.

Like I know the hairs on the back of my hand sticking up for the poor and downhearted railroad from the station at the end of time to the roundhouse of last year’s chaff.

Chalk walked into a bar and said, Hay, who put that bar there? Hay said Hey! out loud so everyone looked at it as it pointed slowly at the trailer full of hay making its way down the highway, the hay highway. Good grief laughed, but bad grief said, Good grief, why do you have to do that every time? There was total silence, like in a movie just before a bomb goes off. Then a bomb went off, and everyone–Chalk and Hay included–said Hay! we don’t know whether to call it good grief or bad grief.

Like I know Charlie would have a cow if Lucy jumped over the hay diddle diddle.

Nailed precursors of empty foghorns frittered away their apple-a-day until the doctors went out of business.

Fog hats, on the other hand, footed the bill for a neck of pheasants in full throat with the day of deliberate deliberations coming regarding the mess in the courtyard, but the mess in the barnyard was left undiscovered until the country of travelers’ bourns bore fruit of the next generation. Migrations were up for grabs, but the gauntlets gathered garlands and laurels of canyons in their mighty fists, and furious boughs and frivolous cows emerged from their long winter of ecstasy with their dignity intact but their honor in tatters–according to the zebras, that is–but the optometrists had been delayed at the border, so one cannot judge too harshly.

Making amends brought amens to a close, and the tailor’s closed clothes closet bespoke for no one.
