belonging to the shelves and miskept stacks
of a bedroom. It is a cooled chaos, a verdant
wolf eye bead in which we are by movement trapped
in lunacy! A mid-game molecular Jenga tower in which
I play a part as you do, tenant to a tentative position
bearing the weight of every thing on the shoulders of
every one, captured frozen at the fall.
Wooden cheques suspended en masse descent, pieces fixed
clacking against each other or finding themselves
harsh against their neighbors' back - or lucky to
touch vertically momentarily and proclaim soul mates.

there should be ashes
everywhere as he reads,
ashes smeared into death rites.

to mourn:
words birth themselves into the air as
suicides sometimes do,
hesitating on the sill, his mouth, and then
the word inseparable
from the air passes
through the air; and we are the boys
in a field, blindfolded boys
beneath the sound of a jetliner:
the sound we follow to all ends of the field,
to the ring of soil that is
the bodies that in darkness we trample;
this is why, I imagine, he must read
these words to us,

Getting out of Dodge, My white Ford
Getting out of Dodge, my white ford
From the view of a motel 6
With the interstate roaring four directions
U-Haul vans decked with boats and car trailers
Jake-breaking trucks spattering diesel
From four cities, and four directions
Seeing America from the back end of a Ford.
Where I have gotten the hell out of Dodge
As I am goaded from 200 miles to nowhere
To rest my tangled head covered in dust
As I wrap my reins these car keys
Around my wrist as I call up on the telephone
To say cackling,
"Yes I'm fine, Dodge City, I don't know.
I am nowhere halfway somewhere
Watching stoplights and gett

Sometimes, I just pray
for another attack.
Bombs, planes, boxcutters.
I don\'t care how.
I just pray
for something
horrible.
I do it because
I really just want
everyone to hold hands,
and to be able to cry
together.
That\'s not a bad thing.
It\'s really not.

Someone is going to produce
The best poem ever written.
It will be blessed with one hundred and three lines
Of genius, and a hint of luck.
The lines will not be overlong
But not too
Short.
Each stanza will be written
With vigor, on purpose
And will never exceed the limit of
Seventy-six syllables...
Or something like that.
In this poem there will be a man.
This man, though, will not be a hero.
Nor will he be a loser.
He will be just the right type of
Everything and have only one tragic flaw
Which will be...
This man won\'t hate women.
He will respect them, but not to that
Too much point; this man will not
Be whipped by a

midnight rendezvous,
a hushed affair
between skin

a hidden shift
between reality

here the piano
extends a delicate hand,
chilled, brass pedals
licking the warm pad
of a drawn, bare foot;
the intimate embrace
in a fingertip

in this
reverent communion,
his world could spin itself back
into the ghostly wave
of a gentle hip,
and drape her weight
across his chest
with the familiar grace
of ache
and a
rest
abandoned.

scissor ninja vs paper robot
And if you should tear it right, my
Origami heart bleeds
Ink onto paper,
Spelling out in words
No one's used for years,
That you can only find in
Old dusty dictionaries, the pages of which
I have a habit of tearing out and
Folding into little abstract characters and
Making them have fights on my desk.
My verbosity
Begets obfuscation;
Producing strings of sentences,
Words arranged carefully as
Thos flower arrangements
Your order by mail
To give to someone you barely know because they've
Done something.
My flowers are made from the same
Pages as the little monsters I play games with,
The same games that everyone else play
