filled with
tears blood thought
junk
passion and rose
water

it’s important to smell
nice creative successful
you
see all that

with your fingers
toes pores dna
dreams

still
over here

devoted
to study
every
inch of your
inch
every gesture
here
to entertain eternity

screams at windows
you got the guns
i got the bullets

they have an airplane
that
drops things
that
explode

here
shot this with
a phone

on my lap all
sleeping
cat dreams
your dreams
my dreams
seem important
and urgent
they are
ready
and awake
sleeping
on your lap
too

she wore a suit
made
of silk and hemp

read the news
from
a teleprompter

most of it
terrible and
horrifying

then
a happy story
about
a butterfly dodging bullets
finding
her way home

all is not lost
here
just parts

it’s an open wound
a diary entrance
someplace with sun
without light

i correct
revisit the trance
play remote
nothing was
something

you recall
leafs remember
time’s journey
mushrooms in equal parts
caps and stems

buried in the bone
your documentary
how about that

poems are lessons
art is space
outer space is now
filled with garbage
so travel
safe

sitting
on the shore
in michigan
in holland maybe
speaking the dutch
rhyming words with
yardbirds with
cats and some
bully who loves
this neighborhood

here you
know
semi invisible
seeking candy for
the afterlife
feral food for energy
a nameless star
and a new home
orbiting heaven

gonna leave
going to
disappear

gonna think
about you
while waiting
to
disappear

you will be on
my mind like
a child thinks
about tomorrow and
the ghost
in
the
basement or
closet

what’s under the bed

here today
will
still be here
tomorrow

need great
adventure i
need a
merry
go round

i need 100
miles an
hour
up
side down

need the
ocean
the waves
and
a
surf board

i need a
rocket
ship
and a
launch
pad

need to drink
some
piss
cause
i was
thirsty

need to
go
away soon
and
get
lost

need

somehow
got a degree
from
an accredited
university
that gives
you the
permission
to paint

you are a
writer
you are
a
skilled business
robot

you are a
libidinous
mannequin

you are
free
