once the slurry of words
infused with grog hardens to ware
you apply lead glaze to the bisque
then, carefully lay on a shelf of stone
in the traditional method, with cones
heating until polished to a porous unfinish
allowing the words to oxidize with meaning
next, you remove them from the
glowering hot still glimmering
set them in a galvanized garbage can,
filled with sawdust, straw and
newsprint; making them crackle
as they carbonize and blacken
to the noir reduction
of the fired lexicon.
