and the ribs are showing

twirling, twirling, the
scent of the lights, the
sounds electric,
the buzzing and glare,
the shadows faceless and watching –
twirling, twirling, the
spinning never stops,
the spinning never stops and
they’re clapping, or booing, or
recounting interminably some
other meagre thing; all is
comparison in the stands,
while in the limelight:
twirling, twirling,
the beast ages;
the beast dies.

A FISTFUL OF JOY

claw and scratch and grab as
it holds you under, under, under;
leave it red-streaked and huffing,
disappearing down the lonesome night;
and in the morning, waking,
unsure the border between dream and
dreamer, the hands –
soot-stained, clutching
a fistful of joy –
relaxing, it
drifts on the air.

A HEART BY PROXY

Let the machine do my feeling;
hold committee on my love –
come to decisions based on
those labyrinth secrets, let
me be not despised, for
who could hate the stupid machine?
the witless computations of supreme intellect?
Give me the certainty of a guide;
a handbook of life: a guarantee of
something, even failure,
with instructions followed faithfully;
do not blame me! for it was not my decision!
as I feed us, piece by piece
into the machine;
it was never my choice when I chose!

The Hunter Teaches

he is aware of the similitude, perhaps,
as he instructs, the hand a knife,
his body a carcass;
see the finger trace from
the soft hollow where the ribs end;
down the belly, to the crotch,
one more, widthwise and peeling, fingers
pinching, feigned knifework;
the mimicry of emptying –
all is alike, in a sense,
it was always instruction:
life, death, hunger, feasting,
the cycle of edification.

Into The Basket

a trophy and a needed thing;
a sharp discard; a source of
immense pain – gather,
gather, with every day
the basket fills from
hollow to pile; with every day
a new evil trinket; a newborn
slickness; little hunks of plastic
and flesh, always flesh;
there’s a desire, there’s a desire,
it’s in the basket too, it’s
found in the world and
plucked, gently,
brought along.

Broadly Speaking

it is always has always will always be
far-flung, falling apart at
every example,
every moment of reality;
it was stated certainly and
the world did not change,
the world simply provided example –
all things reduced to examples
and exceptions that prove the rule;
all statements, especially this one,
eventually crumbling into themselves.

placing my faith in the portfolio

everybody needs an anchor binding them,
everyone needs a home, a love, a great and
dismal quest;
everybody needs a well-diversified portfolio
with a sky-high rate; everyone needs
a well-oiled rifle, a trusty knife; everyone
needs to look over the horizon for a
long, long time
until movement draws the eye –
everyone sees the shape
but nobody agrees on the need.

a gentle heat

there will come a gentling heat,
the streets will quiet, the sleepers
dozing in their automobiles, engines
running for a time and jumping likewise
into dream; there will come a calm
like never before, all the world
holding breath that slips to sighing;
there will come a gentling heat,
the tractors idle in the field
carrying strange-shaped cargo, the
barns full of stillness, the
jungles dry, dry, dry –
we won’t see it,
there will be nothing left to see,
as civilization in all its quietude
conquers the barbarous everyday.

on all surfaces
the dust
that was us

balin

speculation, supposition, the sun rises
and sets, the text crawls across the screen –
some tale some long-lost tale
we somehow know, that’s somehow everywhere,
some knight some blade some scabbard some maiden
to draw the blade is to draw certain death,
and still the blade is drawn,
to keep the blade is an ill, ill fate,
and still the blade is kept –
and the savage, stupid truth looms:
all swords will be drawn,
and, somehow, sheathed.
