While wrist-wrapped to
a medicine ball,
piercings bit my nose.
The fog sprays at misty eyes
as curly Qs brandish
my brain .. FIRE ..
This pungency skunked
from a hole in the noose,
formally tasted
an endangered life.
This drain cock is
an everyday savior
who collapses in persecution
by the inanimate and
the inane.
Drool escaped today from pressed lips.
The foam built from twelve throaty geysers
to spit toothy paste.
My job: to re-enamel the vented voices ...
Capped whistles end
as the air exhausts
from this technician,
Wednesday.
Author notes
references to a few technical positions ... some dentistry perhaps, some psychology. Its pretty broad ..

So have to say this but where you capitalized 'fire'; reminded me of Lion King 2, with the Hyena. FIRE!!~!
But apart from that comical appearance
You have an intense and intoxicating way of setting the right imagery and it's bloody brilliant, as you always are.

she said no outrageous colored fonts.
Chartreuse is fairly obnoxious
other than that, I really have nothing further to add, as I have no idea what you're talking about. I like the hole in noose, and the twelve throaty geysers...that part was awesome.
love,
