Salt ruins.
her sideways glance
shaped Lot’s new memorial:
preservative defiance
statuesque, seasonal dress.
the apple, salty too.
savory flavor behavior-
aspirate fruit’s juice
yet renders water fatal –
not a drop.
perfect crust earth shell,
temperatures of hell.
salt packed wounds are
primal scream extractions,
quench of infection
with a healing sting.
prism prison
voluntary dome
schooner skirt,
skin of sun
NaCl assembly line
sodium, breath, chloride
abundance crafts a panic room
abstinence seizure catalyst
drip or shaker,
salt of the earth
no preservative
