Canada I write sometimes.
i have a face cut from ice a heart pierced in a thousand places so to remember always the same voice the same gestures and my laughter heavy as a wall between you and me the ones who are most alive seem the most still behind the milky way a shadow dances our gaze climbs toward the stars

the morning of the world
bleached beneath a 10 kilowatt moon anticipating geometry the smell of soap that same instant calling into question bisexuality without flesh or the vibration of blood

Young star hold your fire You need light to chase space and time. You’re celestial symmetry

Symmetry
Reading Journal #1 Rummage a book I’m done bulldozing about how much I kaleidoscope textbooks. Pick up Exodia and obliterate me to the shadow-realm (Get to point? Ok.) Reading Journal #2 Syllables Gibberish. Lectures Syllables. ZzZz Gibberish. 9/5 work Reading Journal #3 I’m scrabbling syllables to strut them like drag queens I’m bored out of vulture-brains. I got gigolo-fingers I rummage up a ******** like college porn-stars. Reading Journal #4 **** **** Lectures College. **** ?? Newton. Reading Journal #4 Do you read Britannica Dictionaries, an alligator of an FAQ? It Einsteins verbiages like **** man and s u c k s I’ll add abbreviations the next time I scribble average joe mean-girls-esque diaries. Reading Journal #5 …Awkward, I don’t remember writing this Morse code doggynote.

The Book of Lies
Mamacita Coke-bottle figures are motivation to get close to you. I arrive to Spain clinging Molotov Cocktails (it’s not Spanish but least it’ll do) to see blossoming tulip dresses I bend kneecaps to Barcelona, Medellin, Buenos Aires, Santiago, Puerto Rico Mexico City, Madrid to get a sense of your flower-nightlife Swallow Iquitos, hills of white rice fields. Conquistador I bachata-bachata love you gyrating exoskeletons to Reggeton

Mamacita
If I left notes in Sphinx drawers Crimson leaves whirl to earth. People shisha-puff barrels of oil in the air Skies tumble nimbostratusclouds. Apocalypses apocalypse while Broadway & Wall Street chuck **** ******** flags Slide them in Alabaster wardrobe crevices. Kaleidoscope paper.

Sphinx
Senorita, nosedive in membranes Seizure piano jazz fingers. Lurch closer, I shimmy towards you like Enrique Iglesias Technicolor films Centipedefeet tip-toeing beneath pounding disco strobe lights. Oscillations, Mac-arena side-leaps, leviathan sidesteps to paradise Glints of moonlight in her eyes winking at me She clicks her foot on earth with Ye-ye-ye’s gyrating.

Ye-ye-ye
I scribble about planets strewing from the face They’re hip-hop graffiti or spiting images of exo-lifeforms. Abstract wavelengths circling from heads canvasing an earth unlike what i’ve kaleidoscope before You’ve s e e n it. The face The endless kamikaze from exoplanets swaddling behind bulging eyeballs. of supernova’s and B-72 solar systems My birdbrain.

The Odyssey of a Birdbrain
I show no mercy for the weak They’re shattered branches caught in small maelstroms in the air. I show no remorse for bonebrittles They cover skulls with mummy bandages throwing them into creaking galleon beds. With breeding wantons from cauldrons and crinolines strewing quicksilver bars of metal I synapse ***** in shock of their existence. They seem to be invisible wraiths disguised as Presbyterian halo’s in the brain
