Ofoucaultations

I.

  thought me an alien
when first slept together twice
for 2 mornings she didn’t see me
piss
                        drinkwater

the Days go by very quickly now…
pay mind those
swearing allegiance.
2
inalienable privileges keep yr own
                        flesh covered

gradation hate & tripwires
                         
 radiation

o holy. O holy                       is
 
motor Inn
 alien stable
Wright Bros, right brothers!
to fear
barn animals.
Don’t catch
                   burning yarns
gold weighted with sands.


II.

Oh say,
can you see?                                    (can you hear me
                        now?)
Oh silence, oh
yes it is—

this tomb to unknown
junky/                   
He

tried thrown elbow at my head   (only 2 ft off)
try pudding
my back thru
restaurant glass

& I.
shrugg’d him off


He crawl’d inside
the mouth where—

ideas
Of birth—he whined
High tears to me
&I wined quite back
&dined (on) him for lack

Damag’d infect’d
volcano flesh bloodied cold

thick—black hurt
&windy mad wisdom
whisk past
like eggs
scrambled
unknown you, junky


Black Arabian
nighttime—cool marine
glyphic Instruct Blues
coded know-how when you

inspire—
nest—
rest&come back some
overflowing tubs now.
Breathless.

Blood spray over lead paint
toilet floors under gore
 my lord is crying
Into porcelain now—
sifting
 dreams
      & bile.

check vitals. the humors.
Comedy o dead vines.

Crack swift heights
the neck—chin down tho
expurge speed-

scourge the flagellations
mysterious desert
abuses. Calling
home from overnights
in the garden

hiding your brother
his keeper
from wrath. Hiding.
Yours truly,
From Collapse.


III.

I am no diff’rent
    unknown junky
I know diff’rent
     & will again
But what to do when
      to watch

Immigrant friends
      twisted&screwed—

Take on bath water
       mothers
smoking their eyes
troubling 5 worlds
&scrambling eggs for 1.

Noble the royal We in
       the centuries
smooth. Lands of broken
        calligramme

Yr a drumbeat racing fool
toll-road robbing finch
what Peter Pan theory means to a grave.                                                           Ah, men?

  1. Allow me to allow us to read a part of this again? What to me is really vivid, language fresh and inside-out, I wonder what was yr process or procedure? If there was ONE at all? Love, especially:

    inspire—
    nest—
    rest&come back some
    overflowing tubs now.
    Breathless.
