The Sharp Electrode Piercing Sparks Of Katie Powers
Imagine a giant, galaxy-sized distributor cap,
ignition wires fanning out like spiral arms of the milky way
powering huge, supernova-sized “Champion” brand spark plugs, ZAP!
...and in that firecracker-cracking, thunderclap a-clapping conduit G A P
darting between stark, high-speed sparks of electro-imagination
is a neon nymph-e electric pixie dancing with shocking orange stockings
singing the stinging, ZZZzzz... red fire-fly breakin’-me-heart blues of hues,
& busting non-stop trip-hop acid-trance dance moves, YEA!
These are the sharp electrode piercing sparks of Katie Powers.
Not crude caveman, UG! UG! rub-two-sticks-together smokin’ chokin’, COUGH! COUGH! flint fires,
nor weak computer geek freak programing with silicone-chip bits of micro-static electricity,
but powerful, knock-your-Jr.-High-Phys-ed-teacher-on-their-ass jolts of volts crackling in high power lines
wired directly to loner me, stoner me, SSSsss... tripping on zipping Spencer Gift plasma balls,
and the electrocution cutie-pie hair-standing-on-end Discovery World surprise in your eyes.
These are the sharp electrode piercing sparks of Katie Powers.
