Open up the kitchen cabinets So that every silverware warms by the window And have them all ajar To be sidestepped Ducked around And everyone can see the film Of dust around my spinning plates And the particulates percolate in washing circles against rectangled yellow beams Shooting heat on the concrete and tiles And everyone can see my ***** airs My ***** kitchen Why am I to shut them Let them bake Coagulate and rot And we can masticate Our loved

An open viewing of everything in my kitchen
His head grew, bulging his hat and ripping the brims. His temples expanded, more and more and the weight of his craniam increased too. Soon his huge head was too much for his neck, and it was propped up upon a stick for a time, dug into the dirt leaning from over the edge of his porch where he’d sit on his chair and wave at passerby's who almost mostly never waved back and his eyes were locked to the dirt path onward through thickets of pale green brush.

Man with a swelling head
Where are we going he asked the small crowd of about twelve as they stepped slowly dodging clumps of mud in the deeply soaked dirt behind the wooden carriage. It bounced about, throwing itself with every step of the hoove, as the four muscular four legged beasts whipped their tails and trodder ahead, pulling the heavy mass of the stuffed wooden object behind them. You’ll know soon enough With enough time Do not worry, Enjoy the ride Dandelions all about if you look closely Too much mud in my boot **** all There goes the sun with every step Boy Asking questions This this this The troop marched through the greenery, and it browned upturned in its wet state, wetttened by the storms, the grass emulsified                           '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' The waters cold grey groan Winter spent clutching sand slipping through my knuckles I gasp Firmament   In the shoots of green  and yellow tufts dispersed by feathers discarded by birds Waxed paper discarded by men White Plastic coffee creamer cups discarded by men Yellowing earl grey tea bags discarded by men Burnt crisped flattened cigarette butts But the waters wash. Whiter water billowing. Violent diaspora* of white and blues and sweet smelling sand circulating in the circular motion of falling wash. There is something deeply peaceful about cleaning. The action of putting order to those in which have none if they’re to lie where they lay Eat the dinner and clean it up Turn on the light and turn it off Recycle the plastic, buy more Sleep awake again When will we feel finite

When will I come to be the beast to feast upon the nest The one to harrow fear to those at rest The baby bird falls from the tree It’s spreads its wings to bounce from red branches of the canopy My brain is festered with worms Tombstone in the white wash I’ve lost my leash I’ll never catch another at haggradies I was beaten on the beach Sand and snot I cried and walked miles back to my mother Reject A mocking jay called on a leaved branch by My window where the porch light shone How it’s voice quivered for a mate till one late evening I awaited its song and it never returned or whistled it’s disjointed tune. and I never heard it again. An owl ate and regurgitated over the white Chevrolet truck. Dead rats in circular spitted tufts

tuft
I understand. He said, chained to the wall. The guard Edmond twirled the key in his finger back and forth again and again and it tickeled as it hit against the wall but the impact did nothing to slow the encircling motion of the key and Edmond laughed. You understand what. That your trapped And spiders dropped from his eyelid. Popping out, peeling with legs from him, and his body erupted in bugs. You understand nothing He gazed as the wall dripped wet

O surpassing knowledge. Dead elephant Tusk towards the heaven The brain. The plan. Savior in the sinking swamp Who’s warm rolling probiscus clutches as the mud clings to the infant wading and a helicopter successfully hovers a thousand yards above as grandmothers attempt to drag kin Are we all but to perceived and regurgitate and transcribe Let us mallieate and mold and arise from the ground paper mache houses spat from compressed lumber Gargled from the imitation of beauty And live once More in the simple lean against the tree

Elephant trunks
I’m to **** on my brothers couch after passing out, what sort of loser at forty years old does that? I’ll say, I come from a good family I’ll say. This is my last bottle I’ll say before it’s bought, before it’s even 11 pm, before I come up with an excuse of the death of my cousin months ago. I’m to crush and indent my temple upon the grey wash of the concrete at the bus stop, in the dead of night, where no one will be to pick me up, I’m to convulse from the subdermal hematoma, I’m to lay out on the stretcher with my head above my heart to allow it to pool away from the cranium. I’m to meet someone who says they loves me and doesn’t want me all the same, I’m going to cry against them, I’m to just hope they eat there words, when someone said they’d be there for me, when someone said I was worth their time, When someone said I could trust them, when someone waited for me so we could walk together.

Healthy me
About a daily routine, when one wakes up, a light flickers and we know so quickly what hasnt been done yet. The sanded sheets, feckled Life like theatre. what appointment is made in our head where we all fall. The calling crows on branches past, the low lags The crack in the shell of the crab, o woe the morsels white and shredded fall forth, im just questioning, and wondering what or where I need to be in future time, o woe I think that right now some things just seem silly, I feel that some things just seem redundant   O woe I’m to be alone for how long This is the song of death, the weary sagging eyes have bled I’ve dripped from the sinew Slow dredges of cough O woe The bird in flight, who’s grip on on the reddened stick and bouncing brush waving hands of shining leaves like flickering lamp I’ve had nothing but beer to drink I’ve had nothing but smoke to sip As it barrels from my mouth

Just going
Dec 30th What soft light bounces between the wooden shudders, These slats in rows. Let’s grow ugly and fat together and let the lines of a couch or bed depress into our form of repeated placement as we wear small spectacles and squint anyway as one reads and the other sleeps despite the yellow wash over white linens and deep shadows. These slats in Rows. Clouded white light peering around the vestibule. Nobody walks on their heels with their head crook to the neck and their eyes behind. Nobody walks backwards. I’m not here much longer I don’t think I can take it. Living in uncertainty without an element of death or danger, only monetary insecurity, is the worst stressor which far surpasses the former of having to watch ones back, of having to look forward and plan, of tenting or warming oneself by flame. This living is death. I’m to smile today, and it’s not by choice but elation but laying in the hollows of the wooden floor built up on stilts where every step echos as you slide with socks backwards for just a moment, this conclusion of thought itself in the soft paws and feet treading, where in echos of the depth of the warm pipes and soft dirt and dead lost pets  and cabinets of sticky noted named bottles of soap of people long since visited and mounds of photos resounds family.

A drawing of the moon and sun is hung from above my bed and every morning I wake and realize the mistakes, (of how your) name rung like a bell through my body how silly Break the Love in Purity who’s to be discouraged from *** I know not what’s next I need my mind out of this hex I wish she loved be back again but a million miles away from the moon and I am the sun My Sol is lost, And this is where I ask myself why I’m so aloof. Who am I. What is myself. How grounded am I to the affects my body will experience from the actions I take. I’ve spent a long while meandering. Running even. I’m confused. About everything. I’ve unraveled unto where each segment of spirit and personhood is delicately dissected and laid forth for observation. What part is in defiance
