The Bourbon Eater

The maggot The worm The wasp The ant The fly

The birth The clot The plug The polk The sweltering scent of yeast


The knuckle The neck The numb beast The dumb mackerel child


The tears The shy odors The awful smile The hidden milk


The small headed one The young body The untouched The plum


The shingles that swing The buttery kidneys The blistered thumb


The punctured wing The red iodine The soft swollen lips



The gapers The pigs The tallowed wicks The whispering axe


The women The cattle The shattered hoofs The digging fists


The midnight AM radio The weeping clown The nut brown dentures at bedside


The whiskey drinkers The fleshy experiments The kirlian photographs


The exposure meter The reverse speech The unwanted response


The heads blown from love by fingers of shame The smell of fixer beneath the red light


The salt The slit The sting The stain in the snow that crusted and dried



The rise of the poet The slick floe of ice The fuel The words The passion


The early sky The taste of wood The opium honey The sweet baguette


The prize The disguise The bruise The liquid heart The self penetration


The black capsules The journey The urine drinker The hissing asphalt


The powdered gums The hardened yellow finger The wrinkled odor


The beautiful people The wonderful glass The empty cafeteria The jazz


The dying aunt The obese man The cell The sheet The loop The creep



The exhausted river The dark fire The kneeling The squeezing


The sand in the throat The cherry sticks The saliva glands The moon


The rusted hooks The salmon eggs The pushed up grin The lure of the spoon


The suffering The infection The half eaten spine The animal teeth


The disappearance The elongated breasts The puckering trout


The vodka The gin The spit The hammer's pulp The shotgunned crap


The shovel The dunes The fatigue The belt The staggering horse



The needles The twitch The beating The examination The stumbling speech


The doctor with strange butterfly hands The empty glass The pump


The sugar The starch The steel The copper The brass The white refined metals


The smoke in the night The high windows The face in the light


The battle The knot The burning sound The entity in window 5


The walking yard The clipboard The organ taster The submaniac


The yawning rabbit The stranger's kiss The slap of the mockery hand



The orange regret The friable eyes The dark dying sunset The confession


The sickened The virus The veins The thick dull crush The green velvet


The desiccated brow The surge forward The accident The pity


The chemical drain The truth The failure The flush The strangled root


The matted flesh The dangling nub The centrifuge The ridiculous pain


The range The clef The natural The bow The slur The air-bent notes


The painted music The buried harp The drummer's fish tone clap



The poetry books The flat pewter cross The cleaving asunder of us all


The stones The feathers The pieces of bone in the fingernail jar


The tangled vine The Cuban cigars The tremolo chin The red maple cello


The swatch of grey hair The old sea-crane The letters from home


The suitcase of green cotton lime The oven The loaf The ink


The full cup of coffee The dead starling The long twisted candles


The waste The despair The shivering webs The slow stir of air

Here in 2024, after all this country has been through, the electorate and politic has brought forth these two 
as the best that we can do
for the future of our country. 
Translates a lot to me. Translates a lot to us all. 
(ears cupped, or covered?) 
Now must we talk about the lesser of two weevils without deflection or fuzzy focus.
Media mire and hocus pocus

Seems the tragedy of a starving reason 
this modern man season
to the point of an abundant logical reckoning. 
Farming a feral freedom. 
Perfect soil. Perfect weather. Perfect seeds. 
Perfect produce. Perfect understanding. 
After all, what is blood for, otherwise? Dress it to spill.

Big, peeling old mansion on the hill. All the slopes a fill. A tent city festival of lights surrounding.
Navigation confounding. Babbling towers of culture compounding.

Prisoners of conscience, it renders them thirsty yet patriotic still? Hungry and fed on appeal?

Yet

Peace peace, there is no peace. More and more a golden fleece.

Perfect gaze, thoughtful glaze. Perfect grace, gentle space.
Conformed and confirmed the time apace. Till the end of dearth do us part ways.

Free form accompaniment; reeds and percussion. Brushes on symbols
soft at first, watery trem
equalized when mixed with drone
strings


This one is entitled:

Weird Post To Form/Forum
Numbers 69 and 365

From where comes the gripper
banana foot flipping downslope slipper
wave at the sky a sickly flipper
still hanging on, still dropping dipper
in the well well well
What have we found here
there down in that well

A to Z
1 to 10
I woke today
And that was great
So I did what I couldn’t 
Yesterday wasn’t that great
So today I did contemplate
The tasks at hand
And continue with my fate
Just a day late.
10 to 1
Omega to Alpha

Anger up and down the street.
Victory caught in the jaws of defeat
Left lane, right turn
Right lane, left turn
Angry candle, watch it burn
down
down
down
The world is a purple urn
unbound


that's not only bad. It's worse than terrible.
truth be told, the gist is old
the grist has mold

Winds to whispers to stone weapon eyes
puzzle the pieces that fall from the skies
Enormous black clouds send little white lies
shards of truth in dead mothers cries

Does it seem so hard to season
Where the babes do sleep to reason

Once, twice
Watch out for the mice
Three, four
I ran out the door.
Five, six
I picked up some sticks
Seven, eight
I burnt down the house to get even with the mice.

A til for a taint
