Kiss Kiss Bang Bang

This poem is from a couple years back. It's comprised of book titles from books on my shelves.

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang A book title poem

My life propagates
a genealogy of morals,
entangled minds cloned
quantum reality.
Misery breeds rampage waved to
the art of drawing dragons,
a moveable feast
of folk and fairytales bond to
the critical tradition.
The dream songs share
a brief history in time,
the metamorphosis
of the time machine,
a Romeo and Juliet
born to Paradise lost.
Each day soars bird by bird,
or half bird as Peter Pan
over Walden pond,
the dreaming mind shipwrecked
on Islands in the stream.
The elements of color
renovate a picture of Dorian Grey
drawing in perspective
a war of the worlds
from the Photoshop bible.
