moans wilt wordly



as if the screwed night flunked, coming, rubbing details of bluffing 
absence colliding with audible numbers and weeds, bashed-in skies, it 
emits twisted assertions, as if the optic inflow was posing; or winding 
shallow, snagged and bulky shadows were too abusive


queue lightly, as if the flaws in ruined icons were rugged diamonds, 
cubes' pubes, caustic index of phony points or dashes, index of light, 
flashing flak, glancing carats, repulsed meadows eating azimuth, falcon's 
stance, clusters of browsing abdomen, rather hacking colors, unusual 
stances, a sightless paradox


uglier imposed visions, flat odd bytes, as if soft decimals would exalt 
magenta wires, zip-up straws and spank me, magenta decimals exalted like 
softer visions, as if no one had limits, zippers being zipped off me, 
soft off, and void


raining crap in the lipless vestiges of frozen notches, as if roughly 
lovely wounds would stutter my lurking until it is done, clumsy chaos 
of ovals showering down over nobody, such a unique cement lens with 
the bottom fallen out


square crystal radius shadows sprung from glass colons, my abdomen 
poses like a bleeding rose, sparsely aloft, lovingly rotating, horny 
totem, croaking talons in ruins, jarringly ambushed condor, haunted eyes 
as it is being consumed, shreaking, shrinking poet


edible air ink, awkward bony threads, the madness of modesty a parsing 
typo, deadly blasting comets ripping awake, apart, inhibited bone being 
licked in the cellar creating


dashed mates, buffer stirred, suspended, toggling the plasma wrecks, 
bleeding mergers of burning numbers thrilled to be abruptly nasty, in 
italics, impressively forging ahead, seeing what is nearer, roaring


crudely undoing the omitted waves of memory's grit, perfectly flawed 
secrets weeping, vast flames of modules popping, forging sordid refrains, 
narrow rods of pods abating


striped bulb humming, ticking, brooding, fucking the nouns in the zodiac, 
leaking the measure of flowing boxes averting the snow hole, slashed, 
feeble mole emptied of all its existence


flimsy havoc, peeping blonde lunatic almost stellar, flimsy lung moon, 
havoc of syntax, defining rod being coaxed out of its cheeks, to hung 
fur effects


delete theorems, omit brooding statues, linear eaten ham, pimply faces 
sounding dead, obliquely blushing verb lover, asshole igniting, ticking 
genes, neutral crypts, as if the hidden plains could be located


bulky passion denoting a mantle aligned with the loudest grudge in the 
clutch of inertia, taunting the rims of the fluent acronyms wherein less 
has erred


piston loop, split lips, as if thick wordings would listen, verbose 
clusters of winters ahead, what was sounded was seen, dwindling -- blow 
me, I'm frozen -- across circles of wrung curves plainly peeping


honing in on what is inert, undone, hail, decoded virgin, adoring all 
wrecks of nouns, ache of beauty, busted wounds waving away


gliding unseen, wooden, chartless, retracing the cones on the emptied 
grid, honing in on the italics on my tongue, smelly name, peek at the 
boggles, squeeze the comet


ticking desires dumping, soft waking, lightened eye, hung nebula over 
the pasture still


quicker sordid distortions, contoured lament, messy metal groping, inert 
hash, holy magenta leaking, un-arc, beaten sighs, deluge of fiery arrows 
mimicking me


undoing the tangled fractals, the haunted coral is humming, deep holes 
differ, lies of carved slop beep in the meadow, zoomed accrual, as if, 
unless


concise purity, bluffs of bricks, petty trash wading, optical balls, broken 
diamond prick


orchid waves reflect the gutsy spurts of flames, weeping muscle not yet 
asleep, sound rays of the owl's angles shining


as if blatant cruelty could succumb to one leaf tossing in the mist, 
revert, medusa, cream breath begrudging the tone of kissed juice's...


dripped, swiftly divided, dubbed, stunned, massively clicking, being, 
peeing, straining at the arctic altar


wrung static raw, feel the blatant patches emerging, tangled harrow of 
belches, retraced notches, taunting audits


goofy toy, as if the agony in the conduit was blue, and the dashed stems 
could see the cruelty of hyphens sucking on it, parsing definitions with 
the rigor of mashed aspirations finally on the brink of some adoration

the horizon nests in my bones, dusty

as infinity split with the promise

of death; I watch you hurry

down the street and I think of a coffin's

dampness when the groundwater

percolates through the sourbrown

earth. I sit in the dead tree; my cracked fingers

pinch the moon. I test my edges

and still I do not move. the place

where the door might be

is wilting, the tiny self-sharpening

flowers carving out

the mouths of the dead, grinding

down their teeth, don't speak, you say

to me, after all, what is there to say

when you live

in crevices, don't speak, hornets' nest

of stars inside of me, black tress breathe

in clotting sand, up to my forehead, choked

in it. our minds, our selves, prismed

astralflowers, violent, tender, rustle on the moon.

the night lingers, a foul scent, too
wet too mutilated (slashed words pink
flesh wormy scars) so sad and filthy,

dirty as infinity with her consumptive
cough, jagged hands around the throat
of death, leaving nothing but blindness.

Island, prayer, silence. My heaviness pastes
itself to his. My throat chokes
with cherry pits, my cheeks are dry

leaves rubbing
together; the wind pushes
the papery whispers along the dirt-paved

sidewalks,
my irises two
halves coring themselves.


I put my hand to the mirror
which is where I see him, where I can't see
any part of myself except for the bowl

my hands make
when they cup together,
trying to sort the tangle of his veins.

/

I must cover my face,
I must cover my face.
I should not see


his lizard eyes, moving
dream-slowly
across my body. Constellated

around the sun, subsumed
by the readymade "no."
No answers, "Yes," & everything topples.

I lose him in the prayers that scrape
my cheeks. I forget I promised to stop
the stars' fire, their wide-straddling legs

opening a mute womb.
Boiling (the glass of) my tongue,
torque of my mouth, island, prayer, silence.

Many Wished for Little

flying East, wiping
the dust off the switchblade

no one knows

I carry strapped
to the inside of the waistband
of my pants, brushing

against my thong.
the intimate unknown
violence; I think of the sands

& their slow swishing way
of telling me my their pungent
fingers are now really

bone. Whirr (says bright
clock) fertilized by the eyes
of the dicephalous woman gurgling

a curdy melody
for the diabolical cincture that now
precipitates (chemically) hypotheses mixed

one part blackness
to one part scorpion. Cigarettes
between bombs are not

uncommon. A heroin epidemic
can be started through amputations. Many
wished for little. I was not many.

This is My House We Have Lived Here Together

unnoticed flower pummels its way thru the garden towards
a cloud, mashing the syllables of plants. I didn't know

I'd been killed. on the grid I'd been taking (1,1)(-1,-1)photographs
of the sewers my friends were strewn in but obscurity shot me;

I'd been gone too long. I'd gotten the feeling it was the year
when I got blood poisoning in the blue light of the silicon sun, rabid

with the corrosion of the little angels posted in front of the homes
in the field of grass mowed down by the cul-de-sac, cherubs crying

road-salt tears. I sat outside smoking menthol cigarettes watching
the sun disintegrate behind a cloud shaped like a blood clot

calmly making its way toward the brain. the electricity of the crescent
white paramecia, viscous after melting in the brown spongy

clumps of saliva-streaked water (is not what shocked me.) I unbuttoned
my shirt & let my night hang out. beside that mountain, I hesitated. I
had no memory

but still I could recall the dismantling, stone by stone,
of my body, then, thrown into the river, the shock of the cold fingers of
water.

Spine vacuum dream in a spittled quarter, but to sleep among the ladders is to have
a tale in your trousers.

Foil operations, falling into hyperspatial blinds and pushing some still-smiling mixture,
spill the means on a corner of it.

The limp trains believe wishes might be traced to a quiet odalisque.

To be subtle is one of the three specific answers to such a slow and overwhelming paralysis.

It really is all the puckered lips that resound by locking out a conical strain from the
quarterly projections.

Those Japanese lapses were stylish, but without the drowsy play, some sundries and that
blue-toothed journal surely resulted in an etymological trickledown atmosphere.


[2]

They say it was the moon whispering introspectively.

The information is a gift, hollow as a skull.

Another sundown finds him in the courtyard where they were called neighbors
and still the weary branches, like blind doorknobs, refused to give way.

In those days welcoming was a gasping stale fountain which could add up to zero
but usually didn't.

Or was it.

The same weather, the bay and ice on the trees, yellowing, overcome this dead
man and his desires.

It was someone's and its history is unknown.

Zenophobic spatula symptom, syllables, outcroppings, indeed the goshhawk
sundown shave skill in its surfeit equates.


[3]

A crevice with spoons in the wind suspects southern dress with hills and
that lone pine tree I've been looking for all along.

There shouldn't be two colors of thought.

Bales of hay remember, at the side, worn thin, spoiling, those wrens like
a cloud.

The pain comes and it's so unfamiliar; it reminds me of adverbs and
death if only for yesterday's braided moustaches.

He was pointing at the sky with a Spanish hunch.

By fading over and over, a few stiff drinks will drown a raincoat.

It is plastering a beach ten-times-faster and running out the door where
they may be placing pylons in a regular pattern.

Such a bullet-proof figure felt enormous: the desperate oxygen contaminators
accumulated unconscienably.


[4]

While mining the shale for partners, a red bench pulsed.

A retrograde callousness , salaciously bordering the spine,
follows the rest.

And whatever else happens chaulk it up to love.

Time wastes itself and I play with the hands on the clock.

Nothing is spare or changed when you swallow the writing, because
a panjoyed sutra much never ending.

Totally bitten gunshy saint crushed out tennis balls on the outer wall.

A blue bubble in the minstral cupboard shadowed the periferal "shards"
of matrixing.


[5]

Above such yellow slits inched a pistol applicable to crust and under this
opaque rind, taperecordings fetched a listed brassier.

Multiple eyeholes was what got ten muted passages from branch to leaf.

And in transition, that rap grasped the cat lingual cap but also sent out for
more hats.

Diseased sill, after a clear shirttail, hung under the dream with operable facts
and in my pant leg red from the sun.

Cheeze volition sure cried uncle after everything vague and he cherished the
fridge magnets.

Damp pustule under the porch lasted until her note was those tons into bed I
clamber brains of non floating about in the miasmic brine.

Drips on liberty, saladmaster, pronoun, the bell-shaped coracle was ripe; his
saddlesore superlingual can tense everything.


[6]

The gas pedal bores on chewed hubris a pillow.

It was amorphous, nothing to call home about or of the few
available logos it was parallel.

Non- palooka hats of cat clobber sure diseases; that habit of
spilling onto damp chairs; sure.

Telematics gasped for red neck others after clear note.

After the sun, I from vague open bad steam valve; amour fou:
phone your rag and get your thermos in the bag.

Ask for whithereds lastly until wash sum of those unwearable
tolerance rat-trap among the grease pencil digs.

Hitsville rather indicated: how do you do.

Glass eye cyclonebrained testasterone replacing bald-headed
ten the pulsing gibberish without means.


[7]

Hot weasels wreck a maverick but last only a few seconds.

Breastplate syrupy holder with tangerine ghosts toe the tender
trinket in your phlegm.

Gone for now are the welders? goggles and the artificial nipples.

The finch's solemnoscopy was a tad ulcerous and what lapdog pounds
could be found of the original ten quick sequences under the trellis
were squalid.

His vapid bones became ridden-into-the-ground.

Hollywood?s pernicious mind bullets cheapen natural thoughts and them
with knee-jerk consumerism null the vowels of tilted bundles and synchronarchy
and fatter balljoints within the range of, say, three to ten thousand.

Undone Jane will hesitate with crabs in February, hunting the waste and bungee
jumping.

Fundamentally gags miserama top-mounted suppletones marked for yardbird
genesis.


[8]

Placid PEZ dispensers went telling a tryptic that inspiration
can be a waste of time for the process to come into the daylight.

Not into the following for it enough already.

Tongue-and-groove toothpicks in retrospect, shelves of
operation sandwich to a cheap syllable conniption fit,
make headway.

Plastering guises classified oblong trinkets along the shoulder.

Halleluia.

Lettershapes and grassstained Keds which are the same as
restlessness melting.

Johnson?s part of speech hallway; impertinent menaces poised
in July when the tingling garbage hootenany got going.

Gizzard faucet slakes erraticly under regular noxious beads.

Plastic Traffic Cop Slows Cars in Russia
 
 
She kneels by his side until the ambulance gets there. Oh,
God, what's taking so long? She doesn't even like throwing
a mouse out in the cold, let alone knocking down a
policeman. It's just that, well, the traffic bureau's gotten
cute lately. Last month she waited in her car for ten
minutes before realizing that plastic cop with his hand up
for her to stop wasn't about to walk over. And any number
of times she's slowed down as soon as she spotted one of
those balloonheads.
 


Someone else's face
 
 
Look at her! Straight and narrow nose, chin set back, full
red mouth even without lipstick. Look at her! This is the
work of fifty surgeons, months and months of rehab. A
miracle, they all say. She has trouble pronouncing some
words, but basically she seems to be adapting. Chain-
smoking helps. Steroids help. The steroids also depress her.
As if she doesn't have enough to worry about. Watching TV
hour after hour helps. What they didn't tell her until after
the operation was that the woman who donated this face
committed suicide. One more reminder of someone who
succeeded where she failed. And one of her daughters won't
look at her.


No sex could kill you
 
He reads the headline and, instinctively, places a hand on
his crotch. It took a team of scientists to figure this out.
Stuck-up little men in bed with their test tubes, informing
him that erectile malfunction is the new hidden killer.
Then they point to clogged arteries. He unzips his pants,
reaches his hand in. Arteries in the penis are affected by
the build-up of plaque before the larger coronary arteries,
their study finds. He didn't even know there were penile
arteries, though he admits it makes sense. They're talking
about heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, high
cholesterol. To illustrate their point they show a country
graveyard, all covered in snow, the tombstones irregularly
placed, some of course larger than others.



Robot receptionists to debut in Japan
 
 
She enters the dentist's office and Hello Kitty says good
afternoon and asks her name. Hello Kitty comments that
the dentist's running a little behind today, invites her to
take a seat, then asks if she'd like a cup of tea. She politely
refuses, she's just had lunch. Kitty asks where she ate, then
tells her about a fabulous new French place two blocks
over. She sits on the couch, reaches for a magazine. She
wonders what happened to Karla, that pretty young
receptionist. As if reading her thoughts, Kitty explains that
Karla broke her leg walking her boyfriend's dog. She
apologizes again for the dentist's lateness, he had to work
in two emergencies this morning, then asks once again if
she'd like tea. Or maybe iced tea? How does Kitty talk
without a mouth, she wants to ask. She begins to wonder if
Dr. H. has also been replaced by a robot, if the drilling will
bother her more because it's so impersonal. Dr. H. was
sensitive to her every need. Was? She's talking as if the
robots are holding him captive. She gets up and walks to
the door, says she wants to step out for a smoke, knowing
full well that smoking stains her teeth. Kit looks up and
greets her warmly when she returns. Do you know who's
buried in Grant's tomb, Kit asks. If there were six people
and you only had three apples, how would you have to
divide them? Can you give me a five letter word for what
you do when someone takes your picture?
 


Saudi man forced to marry four wives in six months
 
 
It's not a child's right to question. His father says his
sister's husband's second cousin is the perfect match,
and he marries her. Then his mother says her
nephew's daughter should be more to his taste, and
it's important that her side of the family be
represented. His father insists no woman's going to
get the upper hand, and locates a niece who isn't all
that bad looking, especially with the burka on, and
her father promises a very good dowry. Then he's
stupid enough to mention this wife to his mother,
who pulls another niece out of a hat as if she was a
rabbit (and we all know how rabbits multiply).
Because he doesn't have strength to tell his father
this, he checks himself into the hospital.

(Qx) (BPlx & BAppx)

Let me argue here for a system of predicate poetics, an ordering of semantic
aggregates as dyad splines, in this instance quatrains, quadratic planes.
The Plurative term documents the value of a frontier, a border postulate
while the Appositive term maps a conjunctive symmetry, a transversion of the
Plurative aporia. The symbolic formulae inscribe a dispositional calculus, a
relation in modulo, vis a vis the intra-spatial and logological claims of
the aggregates.
