oh eyes say it all
and mine sad
not unhinged
sad and pinched
sad and clouded
I don't like the w.o.r.l.d.
what is the way to be in this place
with balance with another
no sense of repression
happiness derilection
what is
what is the way
what is the way
time time got the b.r.e.a.d
don't feel too dark about it
life is so short
and not at the rally warning
for pleasure
and yes
the economy's success

the sight book
01:38
|

reading the sight
book to make all the visions stale
to bask again in the putrid stink
obsolescence and torch the way
to temporal feeding grounds
but not before scalding skin
and the throat with dark balm
strident but teary
myopic n bleary
sore with a pinched muscle near
neck nape
donning silver
colored masks
and robes
to reflect
others' conditions back
win the top honors
synonymous with the title of
grand chameleon
total void lets read
a reach and a tentative step back
then a shape decision
to plunge further in
and then a minor retreat
and then a fictitious dive

Its Own Enactment
sight and sound
bound together with drip
shifting ideas round
evidenced by
the glowing fog of wasted water
i see a way to
a way into work the truth fodder
that serves no greater purpose
than its own enactment
this is my statement
or a start to my statement
maybe we'll call it a station
a place stationed on the rails
see what you're doing
wipe the gross grime off your goggles
and this will all pass all going as well
and move right through
all is night rowing and tickle static
with all is right roving
next station treasure trove-ing
is to quit
thinking bout others so much
what they think in relation
are we all one thought
trembling from God’s earholes
eye holes of mirth
the squinted edge
of a many sequined gown
wearing crowd
looking to fix or be fixed
or at least keep the company
of the broken
why not?
I’ve been there and lets admit
that right now I am there still
spiraling back up from somewhere
near the bottom of a strange
black resonant chamber
sight and sound
bound together with the drip
shifting ideas round
evidenced by
the glowing fog of wasted water
i see a way to
a way into work the truth fodder
that serves no greater purpose
than its own revision
I could see you coming down the way from a long ways away

terrestrial shift
03:11
|
|
||
riding surf boards
made of flame and dark words
I am open to the retreat
the pensive martyr
a millionth time
recounting tired lines
this word
the one I just wrote
begging eternity to embrace her
you are fountain he replied
gotta add the chlorine
make sure the algae don't grow
savage landmass slides
into the ocean
in a giant terrestrial shift
womb-like the ocean opens
reverse birth
its a birth quake
an excelsior moment
sliding past lips of cresting waves
matching mad faces
a tumescent ascent
a hat tyrolean neat
bridges the gap between
humanity underneath
the undefined and irrelevant mind is exposed
by knees bros kneeing and knocked
knobbed hobbled and lobbed
no nonsense

held and touched
01:17
|
|||
holding
soft lips touching
tired under eyes
and open ears
n mournful
wistful sighs of surrender
under agitating red moon
a bonfire at dusk
and even she came too
she made too
made too extra excited
and circumventing order
only for a second feeling
two bodies merged in open forgiveness
extra sex unneeded
the way up prepared
by conscious communication
dark brown trim in the apartment
the ugliest thing
blood above the door
and the spirit passes I'm sure
but why do we eat and stroke
what illness do we choose ecstasy over?
