Let's fake an execution: tell me: do you breathe on cue?
parts
I missed your
call at five
this morning. What
makes a stem
sad, all throat,
no flower. We're
a lot like we like
each other, clean, small.
A tooth is how
the mouth goes in, sharp,
then running warmth. I
might need a shiver
to keep me awake.
I had a new smell
the first time I slept
next to you. Naked
belly, a pool on your
hand. In the dream,
our house starts to
burn the first night
and I catch
the arsonists. The second,
it burns down. The third
night, we live next door.
I can't imagine
starting here again. Just
a lump in the covers
with a few little dots
of blood.
Death is refracted light,
the boy not knowing
how to clean up, how
a mountain might
fall on me.
Meteors feel last night
the curved sky,
I want you
I want you
to feel with me, feel me
feel you, time repeats,
changes speed,
stops, all at once.

Tattoo
The light is like a spider.
It crawls over the water.
It crawls over the edges of the snow.
It crawls under your eyelids
And spreads its webs there --
Its two webs.
The webs of your eyes
Are fastened
To the flesh and bones of you
As to rafters of grass.
There are filaments of your eyes
On the surface of the water
And in the edges of the snow.
--Wallace Stevens

Mushroom Drawing

Essence and accident
and if the rest sits fast, lands end,
beached, autumn seethes down
the door, call on hot or the cold
hot door of a room left dead, open,
hope it won't
call me in the way you used to cry
lots, speak, it does, is doing, dear,
it will be about reading, will it to writhe
in writing
will it away or over? orchards about now,
a crude ontology, in time we'll see the next seaport
and never learn to, never care to,
leave a slipped sheet or two, cease.

Let's be happy!





americai
my new machine arrived today
i was getting ready for a rehearsal of japanese music or
was blind as is the custom therefore
did not read the directions
but got into it
with all the rows of pipes
around my tractorlike seat
it worked very well
now it was past use
in the dry clay fields
where a poet girl came to write
now it was chain mail
in the transfused light
it had the same proportions approximately
as my blood
how i was happy me and my machine
and now like a wounded soldier without significance
ii
while my head defined surprise
my old child man fingers were touched with new a resinous grease
an alloyed sound issued otherwise
i have spent a life time in the desert
gathering up antlers to make me a breast plate
against what
like a foot soldier who has lost his horse
light anoints me full of girls
iii
i was like a juvenile delinquent separated from his scene
on the one hand ill at ease on the other hand wanting to continue his
search for black shoe polish for his sea turtle leather jacket
or thinking of giving up juvenile delinquency
the voice told me
sudden nike gesture
the way the light folds fall
between that girls thighs
i would measure it with cambers
were i diatomaceous enough
iv
if i were to go back again to that country
how could i face the prayers in my body
when most of the time i would be alone
