many world

como nada three raw eggs in a dish

place them under the bed 

two hundred marks made in blood

that looked like a cardiograph 

angus the cat staring at the cold spots 

thanks for teaching me so much witchstuff

the hill of the martyrs grant money

that dark place on palace avenue

heads of the native chiefs on stakes around the plaza

jackson was conceived during a conjugal visit

sheena is half navajo

theresa natalie mary kilpatrick

specter detector and the riveting story

do you hate talking to a wall

or do you love how it just reverberates back

i saw mr. president before the speech

i was using his microwave in the wings

he was shy to ask my affiliations

i wished him good luck and hoped he knew then

sad on the new carpet

baby and me in a box

what were we watching

why the hole in my hand

am i bouquet right now?

is everything bouquet?

She Really Let Herself Grow

he sent me a picture of a waterfall,

"I want to grow here and feel wet innocence"

he sent me an invention of an air piece
half eaten and still swallowing itself,
the candle loudly "lick"s

he sent to me a feeling of butterflies
with apple bodies heavy as birds,
licking at the heart of my stomach

"she really let herself grow"

when I grow inside my office I find apples,
people,

old things:
hard-drives, memories

"I'd never leave"

Pre-fab, post-It

hold on to a 

dream freaky free 

of pointed fingers 

Dramatic Green Grass

just humble humble 

go about the office

with a translucent glaze

dolphin oil over everything

glaze should be thicker 

than longing for a whole pet

coming soon

trying to watch for comfort

but its a dark leaves feeling

like the tape from 1993

still says coming soon

for the trailers

and its dark leaves outside

its all a part of your design

Midnight Projections

at night
in an old way
I rub the thick, off-white 
dream balm 
into my temples
get milky clear
and feel about
all the day times 
with you in the desert

by midnight
heavy water
keeps me asleep
in an old way too

My Bed Up There

in dreams,

subtleties become poignant frustration, half alive and half stiff like death
or just strange
and every five seconds the ghost mice scurry on the floor
leaving subtle brown tunnels

to wake up angry about nothing, about death
tell yourself again “I just have the time”
to be a lady with tunnels and time too
and to yearn always for the context
from a forgotten phantom or forgetful ghost
suggests a question of sexuality

in dreams,

suggestions are half stiff, like death
but light enough to wake a lady for five small seconds
enough time to see one mouse turn tunnel
and she could only be so lucky

see-thru love

i’m living in the lap

my spider leg eyelash

baby

just rolling in oils

and

there is so much soap

waiting for number 10

feeling God’s phone vibrate eternally

(she who) tightens the throat,

can also be read as meaning

(she who) causes the throat to breath

either or she on my side

seeing through sun and haze
