karate chop

kung fu ghosts transcend outer time
& inner space by dawdling down
rivers of candied blood on chromo
somal rafts, crouched & prepped to
protect the thin rubber flesh of the
beaten down skiff from obelisk-esque
spikes in the vein-clogging silt with a
singular strike of a flattened out fist.
