GRIPS


GRIPS

wake up to complete bliss before time matters

with this and that written in creases on the cheek

sidewalk chalk messages from sleep

to be worn all day, to disappear 

flowered fans a-ring tugging frets from the neck,

in a  split fragility, recombining to a tight weave

words for white petals steeped in late spring

sneaking in through the window, chair on the roof in the sun

also the sound of electricity and a tree

twisted in the grimace of our laughter


let the harps rail

trim and hum causing shards 

tiny metal flecks

tricking the fool into hunting for it

panning gold in the light laced tunnels of what happens next

re-collecting the whole conversation and summer hot

overripe blanket with so much to offer

add softness of touch to attentive skin grinding all to its dust and flicking off


YOU Mind no twisted ankle, we'll scale the fence and drop

to heave one bundle of bees back in thorny dance, at Fahrenheit Seventy-One

with marble obelisk smoking 

after it falls with the velocity of human grace

in getting steady with the thought

i shuttle close to you, strange ghost now

now you gone now you ghost take away take away

i can't ask, because the answer is always "NO"




  1. BLOOD DART FOG HIS POLITIC
  2. SO PROUD A BRAVE VENISON
  3. THE BLACK BIRD SONG BUSTING THE PAVEMENT 
  4. HOW LAY A FILTER TO BE A PENCIL?
  5. ITS YOUR LIFE


l.

it is causing vertebrae to slip 

bolted to the floor 

bolted to the floor i saw a man

jumping a out of the way of a branch

it unbolted me to see it


we can shut fingers in hymns 

allow rapid breaths to softly come out

echo promises unblanketed unmade

behemoth sorrows might i shoulder again, now

pulverized from tear drops pissing down


the land gives way in anguish 


(crazed repetition) if you cannot vanish and 

cannot bring out a whole spirit

you may ask for help 

if you have to 

have to ask for

maybe it would help to need 

but

spirit cannot ask for help

if you have to 

vanish if you

ask for help 

you may need it





ll.

i know that there are deer in the graveyard when you come

 in fifteens, them looking to the stones 

shoulder blue-veined marble's soft shoulder

and what makes the stone relatable?

 everything we know about ourselves, 

 where the travelers sleep 

the whole place walk

human being

beanpole

cyclone

pablo

it

I

will do 

the vow whatever you'd

imagine, knowing all about 

what would happen and how

frenzied & varied the results 






lll.

lucid session block one

unit eight ball 

unit eight either for the black chest

or that shipping dock

you use your hands

there


security takes symbolic action

against the everglades 

look of the skin against look of the eye

look of the water from out of the window

look of the self


blockade denied

below the tongue 

declared 

irrational unit

left alone wondering now

"what is now?"


the better we get 

the blacker the water 

the delicate shore bleached to death

reflecting heat now back to the sun lV.

give her something to throw 

quickly! the wall needs a reminder in the face

of what the wall is for

seconds pinned to a stack and buried away from desire

throw that over the headless 

stumbling over a 

minefield sick orchard 

athena sleeping there with no reason to wake


dense cavity of trees wrapped with camping tarps

walk up the side of a mountain

hooded, exploding thunder boom

i would have told you 

loud loud with the sound of it

and at the paint of panic

when i can tell you anything 


brick layer skinned at the knee 

through scraps he'd attatched

trying to feebly escape forever

dressed up for it, just shooting at empty clothes

smile at everyone !

police the block and quit

fucking

smoking




V. ITS YOUR LIFE ITS YOUR LIFE ITS YOUR LIFE ITS YOUR LIFE

ITS YOUR LIFE ITS YOUUR LIFE ITS YOUR LIFE ITS YOUR LIFE ITS YOUR LIFE ITS YOUR LIFE ITS YOUR LIFE ITS YOUR LIFE 

ITS YOUR LIFE YOUR LIFE YOUR LIFE TAKING OVER

ITS YOUR LIFE TAKING

TAKING OVER

ITS YOUR LIFE TAKING OVER

ITS YOUR LIFE

ITS YOUR TAKING

YOU ITS YOUR LIFE TAKING YOU

ITS YOUR LIFE 

YOU YOU 

YOU YOU

YOU YOU YOU




this part one
