I love your poetry, but I was a tad bit shocked to discover that you are a carpet muncher, and here I've been secretely hung up on you, and now me and my mother are just laughing at me, because see you are gay, and I am addicted to under ripe mangos with oedipus complexes so I guess we are even some how in SPACE! ehrr or some where lacking...

Part I : Catching the Bird



At a hotel room in Royal Oak



Sleeping the day away.
Upside down on the couch.
The mail slot in the door would open,
with a box of light, indiscriminately.

A set of eyes with voice,
"You got your rent?”

Silently,
I put my pants on.
Letting the question answer itself.


















Border towns & the runs



A border town faceless
and hostile as a car bomb
With sailors and donkeys
And prostitutes that pull
their life's work behind them
In a suitcase on loud wheels.

A drunken bald tattooed spic
gets his head bashed in
with a Corona bottle
While I'm talking to a
cute and pudgy beauty
that thinks I'm as fruity
As parrot soup & chili Verde.

Everything is for sale
Everyone is waiting
To take you into
their doors and give
you a taste of your
own medicine.

One last walk around
the cobble-stoned block
A beautiful streetwalker
flashes me her brown tits
Then pulls up her skirt
To whip out a dick.





I flick my cigarette
and then show her mine's
bigger than hers, limp.
Later, I go eat at something
resembling a Denny's
I order using the "English" menu
I get the "scrabeled eggs and Bakon"
with a smile turned mad grin.

When the sun finally arrives
I find a crack to climb into.
To sleep it off, and wait it out.
Having no intention of seeing
these filthy in between people
returning back to normal.
Because, I know we won't ever
let them. It's too fucking
affordable, lazy, and risky.



















John Denver's Han glider



Bobbing, fluorescents...
Hot pink, electric blue nylon
Wing, waves, slight breeze...
Sunset, Albatross eyeing the
situation. Always looking out
for a lazy moment to preen and one leg.

Spanning the remnants of music
and water. I can vaguely hear
a blowhole off in the distance.
If I was not so hypothermic and disoriented.
Treading for my life. I bet I
could even imagine how its spray
might feel; If my saturation currently
was instead a desert, a dune, a Gila
monster's paradise, and me oh my oh was
not so awash with thirst and sun burnt laziness.

Is that a dingy dinging?
The bark of a sea lion?
The fin of a Maeko shark?

When I last hugged a tree?
It was for dear life.
I had been on peyote for days,
and I was convinced that if
I squeezed hard enough.
It would pull me in.
For good.




Current, riptide, undertow.
All fine examples of secret movement.
Moon, blood, women.
Yes, I'm awake. More bright
eyed and bushy tailed than that
hare who shunned holes for pipes
and slippers and drumsticks.
Fast, but not proud.
Warm milk spoiled.

Cycles, poles, reproduction.
In my past life, I was a square
boulder from Mu.
Then some surly native went and carved
me into a giant head with
exaggerated ear lobes and lips.
Doomed to fall face first, I did.




















Snow Coning



Movie of the week
"The man on the ice float"
Drifting further south
Than most have ever.

He spies a plane circling
And decides to piss the word
"Privacy" in immaculate cursive.

The plane writes,
"Buy a car this 4th of July!"
In large puffy cottony letters.
The man ponders the invitation,
But then hunches down & scoops himself
a snow cone out of his new home with his hat.

Happy fucking Birth Day, America.
















Thoughts on getting back



On getting back;
Who are you said plant to yr
hazel. I am witch.
I am your sore thumb.
Glass explodes
Death Gardel.

& 7:30 comes.

My grandfather has a flesh-eating bacteria.
1966 jungle parasite.

STAFF SEEPING IN GAUZE
JESUS ANTI PALM PRINT
Black blood & full moon.

Pull
push
fog
lighthouse
Tahoe.

I lick my cold sore
Who in the fuck are you?
I am yr bad hand.
I am yr rattrap
Snapping dragon
poppy sac kneel
bicuspid slip
yawning nap
then twilight
and Columbian
guitar for my family

Aye yah yah yah yah.
cuckoo rue cuckoo.

I am yr long nail.
When I luv for keeps.
I keep.

Mini van
Arco
Mexican eyelash & miniature cantaloupe.
When I was five I climbed trees.
Yes, trees
I hid
I was silent & forgettable
I extended
I still am.
pulling from, and
to shadows.

Now scratching at the shudder.
rattle breath you do howl low
you do
still &
yr mine, and
only a vineyard
and a grape walk
and a long talk
can save us now.

Save us now
and happen.
Recording
yr yesterdays.



Air sickness bag



Sitting next to you on that airplane
could only be compared to
being cooked alive
by pygmies with no salt,
or culinary etiquette.

And when you started
comparatively analyzing
yourself to people in magazines?
Was right about the time when
I yawned and asked
for a pillow and blanket.

Re: SupremeDreamer by Nirvana13666 24-Sep-03/11:38 AM
Scorpion feet lucky rabbit



High desert love triangle.
Will you fruit tree?
Can you spot me glacier & wind gusts?
Mountain meadows over dull yellow dunes.
To soon, goodbyes, rifle in every corner.

Turkish coffee
Wearing my Ruana
Devils’ tongue Chile
Mouthfuls of honey
& mango preserves

Even the dog knows better
than to nose poke a scorpion.
But you see there is a brittle brown
piece of plywood 30 yards from the front
porch. Underneath it is a decomposing rabbit,
and a fat see through scorpion.
Poisonous & barbed kisses
All full of babies.

Heeled before its time.
Who said “Rabbit's feet
were lucky”?









The Queen & The Locksmith



From sunset 'til dawn, I'm grinding your keys.
It's become assembly line robotic.
The truth leaves me crippled, forced to beg "please".
Smirking, you herald me, "New & Ionic".
You bid me, "Need nothing", but file your lines.
Sparks, and the wheel's shrill, all days & all ways.
Your heel in the small of me back defines.
Each way a man loves, and to what he prays.

You chained me with habits, and claimed, "'’twas best".
That a man could be drug held by your form.
Needing your nature, I did not resist.
My compulsive drive bid, "drone in your swarm".
Now I'm hypnotized by your soft wing's song.
It speaks to the yearn I have to belong".





















The Masonic Underling & the 33 degree



The wheel of fifths stiffs
me again, as your climax
keeps the slow burn ward

I was just nothing
but your book collector then
So still am I now

I love you alone.
Keeping our secret letters
Sagittarius

To be under you
for all of that which is not
Eternally yours



Prometheus sang for vultures



I gave you my fire
and look what you did with it
Love is for the birds







Unmasking Wyverns



Watch me slave at words I could never say
Monsoon shark god furious
The love of my father, she snaked away

Wind swept waves bled 'til Sunday
It's a shame I am that curious
Watch me slave at words I could never say

Fierce night howls paved the way
And the way it was deleterious
The love of my father, she snaked away

Children raced past our well-lit display
An unintentional metamorphosis
Watch me slave at words I could never say

A crow-haired woman asked, "Was I okay?"
Lips crimson and voluptuous
The love of my father, she snaked away

A god of wind, a shark at play
Your past is not mysterious
Watch me slave at words I could never say
The love of my father, she snaked away.









The Rift



Starts at a place
that I cannot recall.
A depravity structured.
The strongest of walls.
Dividing my soul
from the beauty of God.
Keeping me safe
from what is, and what was.
On this side pure darkness.
with sounds that raise hair.
Since, there was never a nexus,
I studied despair.
I learnt to bend shadows.
And the secrets of words,
but I never found out
how I could be cured.
Because, fear has been stronger
then what they call love
I can eat it, or make it.
When push comes to shove.
Independent of structure.
Void of all heart.
The rift is my gift,
as it tears me apart.









The Ebony Orchid of Theta



The darkest orchid I have ever seen
came to me last night through the realm of dream.
Its pistils, onyx & its edges keen
Though its center was a swirling off cream.

I swore that I even could hear it speak
to me of things I should choose not repeat.
The way men's will can shrivel then turn weak
And the way it spoke was hardly discreet.
Of children in folds, and parents in dire,
and of the greed of men consuming the world.
Of matter less space, and colorless fire
And of the way chaos shall reign unfurled.

Part of me wondered how it had grown here.
Flower black with a pollen of pure fear.

















The darkest woods ever



They were the darkest woods ever.
At least that I had ever seen.
Trees with leaves almost of leather.
Animals, that struck me as too lean.

So I quickened up my rigid stride.
While my eyes scanned for some light.
If I had a horse, full speed I'd ride.
If my lungs were not so tight.

I never should have dared to trespass.
Goddamn shortcuts are always wrong.
Where is my boy scout with his compass?
Why is this taking so awfully long?

Wait... Is that a light that I see up ahead?
No... Just the moon climbing higher instead.
















Las Gaviotas



There is a burning moon in Mexico
Love and blood go hand in hand
So deep, and high, I can't let go.

It rises red, its sky crawl is slow
A bulging middle with golden band
There is a burning moon in Mexico.

Drunk, I watch the ebb tide flow
Where waves wash away at the land
So deep, and high, I can't let go.

A guitar song with black pearls so
consumed with guilt I cannot stand
There is a burning moon in Mexico.

She hangs there naked, all a glow
Over an Ocean of silence and sand
So deep, and high, I can't let go.

In the distance a storm does grow
Spinning eye pulls, strand by strand
There is a burning moon in Mexico
So deep, and high, I can't let go.
