Back entranced in impossibilities
Impossible stretching of limbs
in sideways directions
and upways
does this change everything
of course it changes
everything
and saying this
dream-like thing doesn't
change a bit when you
graduate
you said I'm ungrounded
in the physical
and also that it's just
rubbing bodies
Who I am and who I
want to be I'm
no longer gonna make
a difference
Life unfolds amid
all my mistakes
I won't take it seriously
finally a difference in
knowing that poetry isn't
real and also that
everybody knows everything
Sorry, we can't hide this
so I have to be
transactional
I'll trade my time for
yours and a little bite of
you too
as a bonus
Proselyter
Cajolery
Belligerently
Balky
Incredulously
Piazza
Pulmonary tuberculosis
You are made of light
You are not the actor
See and you hear but
you're deaf and blind
This body is nothing
and what comes after
is nothing too
Ram Ram Ram Ram Ram, etc.
an end or
the sunset on the pond
3 days drowning in sweat
Indiana sun hot on my neck
3 days and there's still concrete
under my fingernails
3 days since I left my baby
3 days and 800 miles west
3 days and I can still feel
her fingernails drawing me back
Time is running out
hurry up out of this interim
tho it is
calm, don't disregard that
still, either -
rush to the store
or
find her
admit that, now?
really?
what can I say
I like everything
kinda in a way
This is the dream of the dreamer
This is the land of lovers
1.5 grapefruits 1.5 lemons 5 oranges, etc.
