Like Outcries

" Like Outcries "

Restricted
by a barricade
system
known as
a sally port
along
with the spare
advantages
of an orb


surmounted
as a cross
outlined
in hoary frost
as an exploitive
offering


hauled until taut
crawling
back and forth
layered across
triangles
of the first fork


with radii
and spirals
like outcries
fetching higher
and higher sites
for fortresslike
top prices


on foot and on bikes
seemingly lifeless
warnings inside
of wireless rites
as security tightening
benday dots
and vertical stripes


in the harsh light
of private hands
with backlashes
from armed camps


as passions of rank
and file ignite
like pop idols
amid violence


on a gridiron
escaping alive
via Wi-Fi
hitting new heights
along fine lines


in an art hive
of clash of the titans
in the absorbent white
of a wandering eye...
