The Great War

Unlike, say, the Gaelic
for kiss my ass, most
Declarations of In-
dependence are top-

heavy with awkward
or extremely dated
references. Some-
times they present

as an organic synthe-
sizer, a Granny Smith
apple perhaps, with a
sound set restricted

to industrial use
because of extremely
mixed reviews. At
other times as an

holistic framework
that purports to look
at all aspects of life
as spiritual practice

but then recommends
the confining of women
to the home & the use
of tanks to shell densely

populated areas. Colon-
ialism is a patriarchal
system. The methods
devour themselves.

Apposite

More of your allure will have been northerly
Than you are able to admire
Once I have shouldered
Blessings carried on the truck

And you have silenced your own urge
To have negotiated
For a larger share
Of even that

Watch out our window
See the moon from this slice
Of time
And the attention this

Requires
Necessity undermines
The courage
Of our reflexes in tandem anymore

hot, raw, sex

Hot,
You not rather way always so.
repulsed:
Sex;
hearing someone gets rather way always
so.

The Great War

Sometimes she con-
fuses words that
sound alike. Such as.
Violets & violence.

So. She thinks the
soldiers are off
picking flowers.
Have brought some

to her. She goes
out walking to show
them off. Back to
the sea. Dressed

for. All in white.
Morning. Her face the
color of violence. Some-
times she confuses

words. Not always.
Life is a parasol.

This is a nice one, brightened up my day. Is this Magritte?

Yes, Adam, it is a Magritte. There's also another painting with the same name where it's Magritte's Mr Commonplace who takes center stage. I'm working on that on & off.

Cool. I like ekphrastic poetry, and this is good stuff.

menth / hole / l'oeil

the undivided rabbit

bounds through cold

listens for longing

the sound of smoke
