Mattress World

The night was decent he says
as I forget my night
because I remember them all
a motorcycle reverberates a bit
I hear it as a threat to existence
red fox creeps in to find baby squirrels
all burrowed, entangling one another
as if siamese twins or quintuplets
crow descends upon the rocks
and steals away a strand of my hair
I go to mattress world and
buy a nest for 99 dollars

Love Note

lamplighter,

Genius as you will, thriving above our material,
through thinner spatiality,
as you do, you will see, and I will seem
to make life size photocopies of me,
and you, if you choose,
but you hate to have your photo taken.

life size,
Nico

closer than my clothes to my body

Arrayed interests blended to the utmost purposeful
as a sacrifice in the name of the high art of pure creation
I lament at my chances
and know it is simply a challenge
to build character & integrity
upon mountainous charity
divine lightness circle me, sphere me
as intent to fill my will

willing

subtleties point me towards
the wounded, the sparsed potential, congregated tumor
can I get a witness to becoming a black heart beating?
I will expunge and solicit this mass
to pray down self sacrifice
to filter the residual silt of personality
turn yr psychic pages
and autograph the word
for the alphabetically challenged
does this talent come naturally?
you have the first thought cruxed by its byproduct
a mad scavenge for scarce resources
within a sea of free samples
I know my tastes
craving not the waste
nor the want
but the saving grace
of purposeful poverty
i.e. we should make haste
