Jealousy has bitten
Ever biting
Ever open the maw
Evermore
(You) crying, (I) weeping,
(Us) kissing the emptiness:
there is a hole in the roof
where the piss pours in.
Fumbling for the latch
A one handed take-off
Unbuckling the limits
Skids up the sky
From eye to tongue
Via much undone
A rich grey
Dappled day
Boding farewell
With teeth twining
A gulp a gurp
A dappy durp
A snib a snub
After the rub
That stolen glance
the first to jelly the legs
with crude mechanics
and a welt of wormy manners
sly whispers
tight eyes
bending backs
bitten nails
A fig-roll curtain
A cloudy-sky coat
Stop coming into my mind
With shoes on
Ill tailored time:
The scissor snipped
for a slighter fit
the cat lost its claws
the bee lost its buzz
the moon lost the sun
when we lost our love
Refuse of a ruined heart
Graveslab flanking
A replica squeeze
With a slug-slow pearlescence
Eating up the greens
drops drain through rippling veins
to a pool that politely explains:
this is where we all end up
no need to be ashamed
you will come to like our likeness
here we are all the same
Smiles stripped to the teeth
Hands coldly creeping
Vignettes of pleasure
Still stampeding
The remains: data drain,
and an ashtray glowing
under a starry night.
Cramming mass on mass:
Great groaning where have you been?
A damp blush
Faithful to your poorly preserved contours.
How many faces you have!
Janus has nothing on you.
the goat
growing tired of the sun
returns
to find his den occupied
