Extra Fancy

Balderdash orders a universe to astonish,
Sips a neutrino martini, burps a theorem oath--
Felicity will be born in stilettos and algorithm

                -skip-

Oblivion wings let the Rolls soar silent
Behind thunder creeping delicate to watch
Galaxies jam the engine near the high school

              -skip-

Felicity has borrowed a feather & ash dress
Flame is her prom theme, her attitude reeks
70s phoenix in sequins, sweat, and the weak force

               -skip-

Beats spin the last dance, a rumble of atoms
Slams through click of diamond neutron heels
The exquisite pop of a universal champagne birth

               -skip-

Nebulae spiral in her plastic cup, she sways
Balderdash leans in the gym window, hungry
Feedback whines in the speakers....

B A N G!

Balderdash swallows the universe
