Purgatory is Going to be Sick
purgatory is going to be sick on its path,
unable to hold down being used.
they all end up there, where?
purgatory doesn't even know.
it's the heaviness of their visualizations,
the present's crushing half-light.
so purgatory is a banished overseer, that
has no substance save for their
visualizations.
black & white images struggling in
swampish murk--with brilliantly vivid
gasps.
people, places or things one thinks
they've committed to memory suffer
this--I myself get high off that spookiness.
spy purgatory stray from its path like a
doomed Romantic.
I visualize our back brick wall facing the
garden at night--with the certitude no one
is observing it.
the crept summonings that strain to see
as above ground, so below.
does the impish rush I get--lay into its
brick, alter its stalemated energy?
I know so.
