B&W
pitcher come from behind

2.
a salt where residue overexposes
a negative a chemical digests
the singer's hand arriving in black & white
world mannequin is held up by
breath alone  this is a digest of events
undigested frame by frame       wilter
cries in the sonorous jungle   framus unlegged
by wor(l)dless     legless hanging from pipes
her pipes proclaiming that NADA has arrived

it is a cold cold night
you walk toward the door as the wind
tries to push you back your beard blown s/ward
enters the frame 
2 scraggle ends & a middle overgrown w/images
your name is muttered into my ear 
i say it's just a rumor
but even rumors bear truths like fish stories
anchors & war
some small truth within the larger frame
click shutter  captured hooked
the horn player  caught while..................
the piano player stopped at the keys

you are nowhere to be found
even with the woman you dream alive
singing syllables of noword to the floor

the back room is occupied by bodies
the front room is occupied by bodies
there is no more jungle
       cut to frame  ream the framus of its shields   &
       aim the shot    wander protected by amulets & videos
       where talking & motion & moving  go silent w/in the frame
       w/in the non-stop harsh voice
       an eye that bestly concretize
       can capture freezeframe on cold cold night

steam rising from the head of the maker
becoming fluid becoming steam becoming fluid
becoming steam again becoming what is - is a ghost
a host  of sorry sapiens  ray le monde & gross
warfly proclaims a wordless song 'at falls 'n rises  falls 'n
rises    falls 'n rises   falls 'n rises    falls 'n rises   ......



3rd eye

sunset:
3rd eye
wrinkled by 
heat &
dust

clouds become
sunset
my 3rd eye
slumbering

with 3 eyes
i watch night
approaching

eating rice balls
passionate
for another kiss

3rd eye 
awakens

doormats  placemats  2 matts

the ivers   & then  divers
this symbol of ratio of ration   the toothpick
it is emperorsorryo clanginbeard sinocity
why the blonde strands curve over a sweatered shoulder
the road passing     rivers & ivers
gaia is no expert on her own mythology
it changes like reason   like a man
sailing to an unknown port feeling the air against 
his face if he's lucky enough to be taking the trip 
of his own accord    upside down as always
& everything sometimes is always all those friends of dead
men who come foward to claim him   ivers &  givers &
strivers     i'm not responsible   the undetermined factor
             here  / there
                            don't be apaganshamed titillation
   oh i hear you
                  reference to space moved back
 it is a chromosomal thing but when your DNA is trashed & then              cashed in
                   you wonder where all the blue chips went
                     blue veins   blue blood  stocks down
  the best day ever
& we wear our joint proposals on our backs like tiny kick me signs
friends working late at the "office"   melancholic overtime    
          quiet little lies like mutton stew    the exclusionary act    i.e.  no sex shops  in my neighborhood
 hooray  a good nazi          (our mayor)         eyelight -

                     a thing not made
 not yogurt/not breakfast/not violin strings/not shapely boots/not
 green shirts/
                  liver the quotation of equates

             supine/morning      not neighborhoods/not neighbors

wrong with you anyway  i folded it all up backwards
      reflections are like that too    get calm
      open up your body    this is downtime to be used up     accordingly    

he set thru the still never seeing the same wave twice
same sky twice 2 i's at sight unerring - stepped on it gainly -
air on his face even if he could not feel it  ratio of this to that
                        NO  TELLING!
