He held a mock
drawing
of a mock
suicide.

In his fist was their rallying
point.

Some even thought.
The foundation offers two options:
Fragments of teeth embedded in the love.
Fragments of teeth embedded in the hate.

His development was     simple
timid     dirty   unknown -
a hug trapped in a boulder.

Some hummed a squadron through his veins.
Eyes gouging to the left
            sound current
and to the right
            sound current.

A full-fledged fell swope
A werewolf before sex   sex.

All he could be certain of was motivation


All he could be certain of was motivation
that acute fear scratching the interior of his hands.

And she lurched in that car with the door that opened.
Her feet dirty and littered.
They were obviously attached
            in some way.

She yelled over:
            Ask your self a question!

Calm down!
            He said.

He lit a candle and planted it
            on his sternum.
When it got dark she used the flicker to burn
             rubbish off her feet.

There was some heavy petting.
Rubik’s Cubing in the dark.

He said:
             I want to be a drug
smuggler.

She said:
 I want to be a tyrant and
they never saw each other again.

Several days later it was


Several days later it was
reported the story
had a sad ending.
Crowds gathered revealing
strength in connections.

A crystal urn.

A diamond creation.

Flames flickering       unspoken.

Gestures given     took .
 
And the sweat pours off
the sun drenched rubbings.

Always invested yet
never   a handful.

he bible


the bible
unlike a beach resort
or a particularly skilled
   atmosphere
is black with some
  gold
writing on it
the other book
            green with old paper
  bag jacket

it seems to have brought the war home
            resenting its subordinate
   position
getting on top of the   grind
as return gift one
  re-gifted then
assaulted exposed then-
   then vanishing into
dog eared
   pages
with a wildly long haired
  language

A secret before dawn goes down by the pool.


A secret before dawn goes down by the pool.
The right hand hiding it’s lips from.
The long journey explains
with some embarrassment.
And people in business began to understand
the advantages.
Down In Kentucky there is a strong man
on a bed of nails.

Here on Myrtle avenue
(they used to call it murder)
there is no promotional shot.
Somewhere there is a black
and white photograph
that matches those kids-
that blast of water
their uncle wrenched open.

Remember that yellow smoke, the sword fights, the rock in my eye,
walking on the great wall.

As a result there are now  a great number of self published feminist magazines
such as: Busts, Moxie, Bitch and Fabula

Screaming in public.
Rolling over with their neighbors.

Poems about death


Poems about death  on the dying bed   and birds that fly belly up
If it all goes it goes
So dear dearest don’t

Sweat

Don’t stain your flesh or cleanse your pours  clean and kept
Those lovely hot sexy toxins
And now just close   your eyes
So tightly   close’n’d 
Forming hard smooth stones

And prayer that upper lip
Will feather   that
 good  weekend

arrot drowning in stucco


The thought of a carrot drowning in stucco
Makes him feel sensuous, boisterous and scrupulous.

And this could bring good news to an otherwise sweaty thankless   ness.

You vow’d to go to heaven.
Press your lips to his feet.

The Lotus is a perennial broad-leaved water plant found in ponds and marshes.
It likes mud.

One girl is a professor of far eastern philosophy and some one else is married with three children and one day when the sky is right they will kiss and make a baby and wrap that baby in the new york times.
