GOOD OUTCOMES

In April you try plans
Turns into May
Best thing is I don’t know bleep
Take dressing for sun
Time after time bad target 
Elevated by ungodly machine 
is of good outcomes
Of all sacks what sack fits?
I call you without lines
Does anything come of no one?
And turn into sand no salt 
Deep hole it all disappears 
Guttural languages: lost 
Sliver in tragus: rare 
Armband from funeral home
Don’t go away in madness 
Don’t go away too sure 
What a devil says computes 
Go ahead, have a hey-day 
Sun squeezes into tight sky 
Man walks blocks in search
