A.P. Spellman: Gospel of Lies

I

w
e kneel eyesore
a whopping eon, felled by physics
cities, ethos, consider the edges—eaten
hermits anon
the mad cant bites a sneaking ascensive
acetous foeman kneeling

echoes leer, embed on estuaries
eons, ethos, boule toeing
setting Athena as an atomic nucleus
a sevent ichor of home
like an essay, a chenille moan eddies
toothy yet escapable
swimming yet tenet

the mane of the hog
amino, ethos, enucleated
like an essay, the heiresses hold the key
an emcee-helot, fielded by the siecles
the heaviest eyes
a nubbly ease
an Aerialist epilogue to obey
to ear deeply
a bulky effigy
an ewer of light

the mode of nescience surrounds the foeman
echoes, ethos, a knish-admiral
hung, ingested bascities
isles emit, obey the psyche
and ant, elfin yet geodesic
a topical knead among the pea green tiles

this was ease anew
this hollow, edited science
it eased, endued
it chewed, washed
upset the onion that educed me
these ebony, vivant heiresses

 

II

a wet guess?
theme?
eons

heist a liege-sent thing
ilea, a nine hoecake-eared guest
the weaning eve, a nut among the alleys
what deep need nodes us home
to a federated, unified city-hole?
an eked, ample, tinged seduction?
the alders that attain neatness
for inefficient ears?
iterates that loge eaten?
what ewer is a felon gem-island
eons

an escalloped atom
wise yet slow
no meteor save ale and a chemist
his eyecup is thine
a heifer, one-stied
news is ease for the elated
the hounded uncle: ether, servo-humble
be issues the elesion
isostasies attain skeane
guess?
eons

a hallowed peak
a hoed city of ego
ingrained where the dead either accede
or, nabbing one, live
the erosives eager
in went the warrior
into the institute for the terror ethic
his leprotic skeins knurling
an agent among the fallen ethos
through the dying need
to the berg where sienna jewel scents the ice
an ethiced adhesion known
an answer seen
eons

 

III

the sherd-hog
aqua, abased yet honed
a planet-yeoman, made of clay
a musical yonder, honing newel
evincing the biting boa's outer nucleus
its leery use:
a vet
a respite from the scree-ride
to your evenly mentioned epithet

a weasel-tree jettied
yet a reserve from ales ingested
a lee aisle, inert in eddying need
a citifying, eying eatery
an epoch
an eon
ibid

IV

the pregnant neap!
the plage singes!
bit at ye!

cities ease the era
bisect the elect
the honeycomb-system
the weaseled king
oh, leeward reliance
the easeful elegiac eyrir

wreak, hour!
ice!

i entail the tinge it emits
ebbs like city jetsetter
its terror unousted
of, fife of ethos
seen easily matin

neon fetters!

a quantized knee, leaping anew
a neon vestige gating the noose
in a hovel of lye
evinced of eon-bits
to err, beg, and annotate evenly
a yew-wrier weasel
an apsed escutcheon

i tear the terrain to bits!

a yetis ebbs
an ultimo snag
it eases ably, honestly, abruptly

bye

 

V

an ape seen as an icicle
the skeane-jell
of a dratted, bereaved, tieless aerator ace
atoned and axed
amice bull
the pere-aloe

the iamb of the no longer exotic east
epicene, evaluated betel
tearing
easing the exiling
a hoke-opal
a value acre ebbed

the tainted knee-guest ate the better for it
a hobgoblin tiff, ternate-kneed,
occurred ingled in the ices
embed gees toeing:
"a teeter, a relic eatery
oh edging term
oh leery epaulet"

the ethos ebbed
the citied adder ribbed
in a neatly serious suit
a liar shade gapped for a seething term
it escalated from the shelf

the edgiest era
the jean-cave
the ape

VI

the welling ouster of trees ethical
an eye-let edition in cyan
cervical electioneers as a wheelbase
were reshaped cheaply
evolution, but opinionated

the ceramic ant on the next eve of whey
an eschew term of three years
chess, applied to the edge of an icon
an espied locus, a ternary scud
yet effete and agnostic

the term ekes inactions
an agent of the raving iceberg
ugliness, an effort for the allotrope
an eyeful of whinsey
of ingots in epaulets

i ache like knobs
my ghastlier years evince my nescience
foetus! an ante, a certain essence
a rickshaw specially botanized
to deter the ictus: "terra"

 

VII

tell terra I eschew her effluent shrills
their jerboan skenes an ache to me
an upset session, a guerdon term
the sisterly scree looms
the knobby hour preys upon this scene
egad! the ewer pox
tanker of fear, gear for Etruscan shellfire

yet peace shined, yea, setaceous aid
an epithet rose
echoing intones of Islamic unity
the aeries where natty eulogists weasel
then the pertly shining publisher eased the ape
a new era, crept in the teat icon

all within earshot knew an easier certainty
yet honesty ate terra

eight toes were possible
a borate position, an enduing omen
it ate each ebbing pose
a thin echo emitted from an oven
a leech peeped from the wreckage of terra
a queasy sting that eases the epistle
on neoned entrees erased

a sudden unity, shiner than a quintillion cities
yet emptily ebbed into a seething hole

the lankiest scions and felons escalated
the bane of weirs, once erased,
now ignited a lewd keynote at ebb
a mere ethos, unpopular and weird
consisted rather of used toes
eaten eagerly and issued by a nixy weskit
her ears an eyesore
scarps opposing crickets
the cities were won cheaply
beaches extolled and eclipsed
offed like the eviction of Cain

a ternate epaulet
unwisely turning acres into settees
errant earls, with skills so practical
that statesmen plea illicitly
a whore's essence threatened by ghosting eyes
and on the scree, the ictus cries:
"out war!"
"out drug!"

i enter the new era
how acerbating is terra
yet all aid her essence
and exonerate hourly her riches
an ancient hobble, her role through the eons

but now, a new hour reels oppression
and peace overcomes titanic issues
assets? an ear, when spooked
will entrap an owl

the state ended
