Melting
broken
twice right
cat's eyes
swishing tail
stuttering
stammering
seconds
making
solid minutes

Expressions of grief,
the eyes of a child

An ending in sight
—all nature reviled

Fire engine
ripped
Naugahyde
cigarette burns
crusted
yellow
yoke
where am I
I woke up
and you were gone
still drowsy from sleep

Another clarity poem. Basically it becomes an exercise in word association. Very Projectivist and Black Mountain School.

We're all in the lunar module
And full of addictions:
Whit, Bill, and me

Not one of us
Knows how to land this thing
So I guess we'll see
Where this ride takes us

One small step for insanity
One giant 'this is all
Elizabeth Leone Laird's fault!'

I always overthink
Leaving permanent ink
One thought
Next another
Each and every other
The constant annoying utter

Stratus
I'm so scared
I know what may be coming
And it isn't pretty
I just want to crash already
And burn up into smoke and flames
