epiphany (cest tout finis) and twelfth night starts the revelry

[laleesh]

christmas dead
bound in lead and flung from a shrimpboat

floatless in the gulf

and twenty first-thousand lords
of misrule
cool in a king cake baked
on a footfall
carnival

have come!




"you know, if see the mardi gras,
somebody'll tell you what's carnival for"
