blue

my countenance is like a fenced flesh
her white figure of an angel holds a secret
me i hide in the blue mirror a gray day
in the narrow bloom of beautiful hands
she holds in blue mirror breath in scarlet gloom
a caravan of choices my blood-red rusted freon wine
starry jigsaw smoke of love is like a fenced torch
paganly hanging from the chandelier room of pictures
question me like a secret me i hide my window ghost
inestimable fields of spinal lightning unfurl
from glimmering apocalyptic flesh dim-sliding
milesaway legs move like beautiful televisions
angelical petals of braille a symphony of milk
in my ears and dreaming past all gray day
in the hands of a flower she spattered
earth dews warm breath like gurgling radiant pain
and algorithmic imaginary europe a song come down
chanting hot white crashes hot white crashes
and dreaming gloom a ghost fucks the current
she spattered these pages with angelical earth
and inestimable petals of blood-red rusted fields
of spinal lightning wine of venusian freon dews
warm breath like braille a symphony of gurgles radiant
unfurls from dented nostrils starry jigsaw puzzles
glimmering between the smoke of love and pain
and algorithmic eyes gaze waltz an imaginary europe
she could melt a horse petalled like the apocalypse
i heard a song come down the dark milk of seven streets
my countenance is like a fenced secret her white figure
it is an angel it holds my flesh like a torch paganly
to greet the rose hanging from the chandelier chanting
high white crashes in my ears and have i been here
this room is full of dim-sliding milesaway pictures
dreaming past all barriers each leg moves closer to
question marks zoom and 'round me roll like an idiot to it






still a word dealer

i still make music for embattled souls
i rip the paper to shreds to connect with my junkie apparatus
i am headed to the halls of overdue
done left you behind scratching a new street
for the gossip of my discontent.

no one but Don DeLillo writes "akimbo" anymore

I listen to the husk around the voice in Underworld
before during and after dark
a deep romantic craggy voice wearing leftover ethnicity
transparent to the eyesight
and the words are sandpaper
the friction of these sounds against the atmosphere
turn irresistible and then repeat themselves

how does the psyche take in panoramic views
without leaving small mountains of dust
in twisted limbs
how does masculinity survive inherent opposition
beneath deceptive skin

the rainbow stays platonic never quite achieving
status of the flesh
and flesh just like a baseball needing periodic
injections of its own importance
starts to fail and keeps descending
without uplift of the language
without reverence that comes of crazymaking
and inflationary talk





proprietor

all the things that i begin i leave is what each heartbeat told me
e'en so i love and will continue my hands gnawing loose took note of this
just now awakening after years of materialism my amorous fingers under dark umbrellas

there was a shutter loose where the revelation grinded its teeth
under my hand the moonlight alphabet penetrated another's flesh
like the gnawing of 10,000 beings i took note of this

just now awakening after years of materialism
i'm 10,000 beings i will continue my hands told me this
my hands told me that i love to dismantle my amorous fingers

we're here because we're here my amorous fingers told me
what can we do to kill time dark umbrellas gnaw at moonlight
each heartbeat like 10,000 beings under the influence of my flesh

i'm a monster just now awakening after 10,000 years
we're here because we're here under my alphabet
10,000 beings were set loose in my drugstore

Gabcast! A Willing Hand






pre(tend)

latch on
catch flan
babysit the
water play
by sit
why not
just here
toward daily
there affix
a shift
and sing
or linger





don't say anything to anyone

pallor does
with glaze

interpolate as
haze exacts

brave that
unfolded doldrum

then forge
ahead ablaze








11.25.2007


I Thought We Might Be Friends

and maybe not there are
some corresponding overtones
of seeping river watch
the tepid sleep
each mild consideration
daylight traipses in
to mood ring
all the playthings left
here in the yard

fable

i've the madness of days whistling out end of eyes' ideal
wrists give milk dazzling initials between senses lips' silence
went to her eyelids burning beautiful entangled villages a force

what comes true unfolding over gold-coloured sex ravines
lose the jacket you're physical moon like pale-blue thoughts
drops of told me told me an essential power happy young busts

cool woman the plateaus bordered love-suspended cruelty down with it
down with it when it sparkles really green hope lit natural supersensual
broken eyes are the certainty of reality or pictures yours or mine ourselves

sacred flares feeling hips parallels permitted smiling silence extended
magnetic rosy starry Midsummer excessive champagne womanhood enough
because the bed stalks your kind in vulgar swoops silver strange spirit

perspiration swarm go like unknown names the murmur of rhododendrons
of asbestos creatures armpit martyrs my towns satanic mills passion me
discover my body during pretend mistress hunter interrupted gamekeeper





evidence to pillow a weak center

full nest radiates without
imposing implications
of a pulse

a shallow pretense
that concrete
could transist
mere elliptical calypso

into depth
spawnlit with
shivaree of bounty

impalp
and not
of course consecutive








11.21.2007


it rains perfume / you are susceptible

neighborhood equals agreement
something is true regard
less of evidence
validation comes
of nods in unison

veto power hypothetical
as wax warmed over
the stove
one modulates response
to happenings sequential

modesty elopes with humility
all eyes are other
where during ceremony
and profound informality
various among us

now have passed
into what we suppose
is comfort impossible
to understand we impose impressions
on the unknown as though

a life form could be
as we sense it
and might morph into
what we draw freehand
sans guide or prompting

Gabcast! Snakes






nostalgia

i found the empty life lasting beyond waiting being filled (going over) - you hear my voice in your queue of heading - you operated yourselves with the fear hidden on the floor of space like being slept - a robber down my stolen book where page divides early childhood with a sulky song - crimes beyond the colours the rock go disgust-exciting to educate me who is sadly not long - fire-place-stained life span you is older the evening maintained - here-smiling the miracle notion around fires of gutter dancing and alive you hear my voice - do you hear my voice with glacial friendliness because it does not believe everyone nowadays - i have felt the sea's sad fact that there is room for improvement - pinnochio's cliff of the silver screen coming to contact you screaming to you - there are works for you surplus on the black pavement of the space notion fires on it in the angle of closed the book - i have felt friendship pools invested in plowing appreciation - transience laughing to dance my voice in the tail of the sun it sees the red and black color of possible screw longitudinally

Vidal Looking In

Primarily one lives the living sentence.

Dusk against pause writes two per acre.

Identical jasmine plods a long vibrancy.

Worms vacate detached retinas looking.

Double predicates are type is a neighbor.

Opening the remaining doors will flux.

Propped sun against negative space walk.

Therein the hours little & mean decide.

Absolutism whip-cracks old water oaks.

Condo after row of condos ample in grace.

Evening’s lucid state of: Vidal looking in.

Sevens’ hovering flatness looks inward.

A southern poem clandestine to the end.





incubation

still my sickness
is to be kissed
it moves the world

why saliva
and were the eye unable
already to hang in dreams past

old memory comes
returning completely
in life

the heart check organism
works on you to see permitted
long time by the lip conclusion

the months of three hurrahs
announced the situation indecently
why was spit in me

couldn't stop
the sugar from running
always my retiring of embrace

the sad life should know
that certain volatile glances
i die and i why over glass

memory

if yes then it gives something that they never had
and it sleeps you where he done something wrong
the dopeman's long distance to the house
where a page white woman pitiless stands
making out what gives with gloves of sun
too much fragile for moving a sad smile
a cold guide which words can constrict
this moonlight can go everywhere
one depends on these tires
on becoming near
so it continues to carry out
remember that nothing does not preoccupy
because everything has to be somewhere
better up there pregnant and bolted up
it's what makes oblivious so obvious





nurse

connected the nail and heart
of the finger which tightens
around that kind of cement
these arrangements faith shut down

the palpitation of windows
of collision of anybody plugs
which you damage since the buck
of these layouts stops in me

is this contradictory this also wanting me
this meeting place of initial sending
whose myth is as luminous as the melody
of those you examine

yes the beginning like a nurse white gown
the beginning shape has left the building
approve the eye because it probably awakes
it probably comes expensive cries a baby

gymnastics of good-bye
the rainbow eternal
it is love will happen
it is always morning here

the sisters of the wreckage

the skyline of confusion throws a stone intimately
lump of throat shaking is sharp problem is influenced

the blinking of the sisters of the wreckage show you
they put out that kind of movement trembling with anything

we frolick
this blue excessively





telescope (belief)

as for me it can look at weakness everything
as for me it is possible to choose defective
as for me i've reliance tested everything
as for me passing by the eye contact
as for me to live exactly in tense denial
as for me all of this is to believe you see





the thrill of the trace

it hits with the door
where the hell is pushed in the margin
where we looked at ourselves from the wing
playback the scene that sorrow is
the place we saw being lost now
is being possible
we've become the thrill of the trace
performed these ceremonies for our wanderings
we have met with our appearance is darker
the gross profit our ours is





iron lung

it is wounded
that intense painful place hardly moves
the make-up is seen to come
to speak to you somehow
but you do not speak
is perhaps language it says
you're my car the eye-end of refuge
what comes after you who obtains

the iron lung breathes deceiving

saturday

this night's upsetting bedwetting bullshit
i feel like a fool on my moodswing cackling back and forth
i'm a modest mouse come from hole all giggly-eyed
a man last night said that he could teach me how
she looked at me smirking miniskirted oh well
i can't make out the porn through the wrong end of the telescope
and the poodle clouds make me wanna puke
and some weird wayback friend's
being gossiped about i'd imagine somewhere
at some tavern flashing digi cameras





debris

debris' face tastes of sister flickers
it's 900 degrees the breeze is a jagged mess
we're some lump thing in the throat of jog
we've played our errors out in a chaplin cabin
eating vertigo'd boots all stoned on commotion
she's like pass the emoting lotion honey
show some that sort of motion you used to

and i'm the skyline thing is rolling can't
you see it too this is blue should we frolick
how long does anything matter depends on who








11.03.2007


golden showers

urinating in the city of face
i want to release this hour
move on any other way
tomorrow is december let's go out
there is loneliness in the garbage
smoking's the plague around my fingers
swishing spitting out egg whites
of confession too tired to care much
whoever you are may hear i've seen
your poison what sort of perversion
what would you call this are you there
is there a name for this keep in mind
kitten there's no safety back there
incoherence's taken your place





retrospect

a wayward kind-of-girlfriend a ufo over milennium park
a powerful scarf wrapped 'round a young poet
a nauseating bubbly brunette a deck of cards
a sherlock what else all sorts i'd thought
wineteased under the hyperblue clouds of july past got
catholic guilt
the drink i want to drink is discipline
reeking of whiskey 3 whole days languagesick grieving
convinced then a fuck will really make it all okay
convinced a fuck is more than a lay and is not love
or is it that which i couldn't give right then
i felt mostly useless at least trying to feel
not quite enough vegetable yet to forget





whiskeytown

nothing can hurt me here at the carnival we puke
blown to smithereens solidgold hide and seek me
all over here or was it the power of two to confuse
the teens well really don't you ever desire to be
universally accepted
two weird skinny white dudes
illegible in the smalltowny atmosphere wished that i had
a big black car right then wish that nothing could hurt me

innocence (eluard, ovid)


Comme le jour dèpend de l'innocence
as light from pure things,
la terre à seule
accoucha les vivants
the earth herself
generated the living
