welcome
festively slim and trim
baking inspiration
pure cane dark light white
sticky brown removed
crystals like time
sprinkled through canneries and pharmacies and photogalleries
moving hands and feet on whirling explosion electric machines
excess manufacturing amnesia

whirely crane at sunrise
(the baltimore museum of industry, founded in 1977, hosted the award of the first schaeffer industrialist of the year award, which honored a domino sugar executive, in 2004)

on the drawing board

inside the spinning globe
of blue kevlar with lasersequined bursts of iridescent refection
sixteen limbs turn four perpetual super gears
titaniachained to eight selfsteering spikeretracting aquaterra paddlewheels
whirring in labyrinthian timecrystaled lubricant
that mists sucroprotein for kinetinauts
suspended in competition

vionary art museum at sunrise
(the american visionary art museum-hosted, lemans-started east coast kinetic sculpture race championship was first held in 1999)

pando human

walk into a forest trembling gold silver yellow
see six thousand tons ringing breathing as one grain
taste pollen blooming ten thousand springs
walk forty thousand feet of dispersed light with each step
hear forty thousand engines working in whisper
smell eighty thousand sun orbits as one second
meaning has found you
