I sit in a can . I listen to a Dylan. I preach to a paper bag. I reach out to an anchor and squeeze out 13 nickels. I pray to a half-baked nun that rides upon a lawn mower. I **** a ***** on a grass knoll and she squeals like a god. I affix a bill upon the altar. I snap a band on the seal. I don't try to cry. I cry in a dead -air.

LISTEN UP.
Someone had a chance when there was nothing made. now I squelch it.
Dirt upon dirt upon dirt,
a rusty spoon, arm abscessed with ******, blacked out with the soot of a 1000 clouds.
I cry ,
I speak to my dead cousin, my dead friend, sitting there all alone. painted white, white in a grave, white without a friend, without a mother, like a ladder to the night.
faces upon a change- saw,
half- in a jar, you could be the last,
there is no more sighing. Dylan is dead. I saw the last, **** "U",
