Nevermore

It doesn’t matter

It doesn’t matter

I let the smoke seep into all that
remained,
into the dry
dreams of
death

I let the smoke fill me
& from there
I took the stairs

to Nevermore

About Skies and Twilight

fruit fly eggs as the latest superfood!

where wet bulbs and swampmonster apps proliferate,

even vegans enjoy the seedlike pop.

as Kate seeks the first person voice, i question the singularity. how easily i become scottish. im less stoic than before. i say whats on my mind. i drink less coffee. men on ladders look in my window fixing bricks. Kate would know how all this relates to adorno or kafka. She would mention her friend ann who writes books that people buy. She would mention her dog. i read Kate and weep. this reminds me of reading Kate and weeping. I mention painpain. painpain is a quebecois rabbit whose name translates as breadbread. or down the road perhaps, sandwichsandwich.

“how easily I become scottish“ – oh, it only takes me a bottle and another half of the same, to hear inside such voices… to express utterances of likeness… Am I already damned or just drunk without knowing ?

Soon I will fade
Into darkness and the
forgotten
realm

My words will merge with others’
Our diluted truths
standing together
In the room of mirrors

Reflecting

Rubber End

& so the story ended
Not with a bang
No balloons popping
But with a whimper
through letting go of
That rubber end,

untied

Filled to its brim
With life —

Wasted

red dwarf

A little red riding hood was your only cover,

I stood there naked in the rain

Dangling

Our lips touched briefly

Like two cats
Fighting at night, like a razor long
expired

against my puny feathers

of manhood.

My Meadow

I called her Meadow,
Overgrown and left to
Her own devices, to her
Own Piper’s calling.

I called her Meadow,
Untouched for decades
Yet still flowering,
Persistence is never futile
It seems.

I called her Meadow,
In my mind her silence
Echoed between absent
Trees, beneath stars of
Comfort living.

I called her Meadow
In my dreams
