black peppermint

 

 

come on little tramp

hook me up some

 

blackened will

 

suckle you look-rat

                  look-monkey

                  looky-look

 

haven't you

figured it out yet

 

I am a killer

and I poison what I touch

 

I am a loser

and my friends

         never win

 


  rigor circuit

 

 

future former employer/employee

         thunderpuss

crop-for-a-fee

 

this style

                  symbolizes

                                    wild mind

         better than betty

                  set the pit

         in the peach. give

                  me something

                  to sit on

nothing worse

than saving a life

to some folks,

but that's all poetry can do.

 

         this was preserved by someone

         who thought it would be of use

         and it fell into the hands

         of someone who did not

 

                  shame about my rider huh

 

 


  little resemblance

 

 

one wall left to go

 

         major din music

 

chug it back down.

 

we are only substance

                  material delusion.

 

nobody tells the difference

 

my major nature

heat show.

 


  -gun shot mouth

 

 

                                    hanging jaw crotch

                                    good old juke-

                                             shutdown

                  beat down town

                  after the gold let out

                           drunk from the bucket-

                                                      brocade

 

                           loss of discovery

                           and discretion

 

                  in this land of lonely aliens

                  shall I put away my care

 

         none of it beats my baby

                           when she tried

 

         no facial features

         or distinguishing marks

                           on the ocean

 


                twist off fate

 

 

         bijoux de mer

in this brief and unnatural time

         barely managed apex

         hands out           eyes open

                  first full flush

                  of the compact hive

         plays to make sense

                           never counting --

                  every time I travel

         I dream that my house

                                    burns down

         outer space

         life cycle

in the shaft of the shrinking-

                                    violet

         brought me back around

                  black eyes next time

         I got to bury you deeper

 


  old mutual

 

 

         insulin candle power

                  my words will

                                    not last

                  the night. but

         what monitor up-

                           and-up

         my trouble heart

outpaces actual usage

                  like that lamp

         unto my feet

 


  bell swag

 

 

         long crawl to the hard peg

                  bring it down home

                  to my unmade bed

 

         odd like two brothers

         even like the free news

 

                  fox chase the rabbit

         and nobody give a damn

                           every dog likes

                           to eat his meat

                  but nobody wants to be

                  the one who gets to bring

                                    down the bull

 


                                               knock, knock --

 

 

shallow shadows

and phantasms

cold moan juiced

                  at depth-

deflation

         of the mouse

                  prickle rip

         pickle flag

fucking muscle

in the back

blew the skirts right

         off an hind

whiff of every stroke

         and the riff get

very inhaler still

         still sweet business

contusion and come

 

 


                sis rock

 

 

kiss the strawberry

         on the hip and the one

         up on the knee -- shiny

                                    rider roots

                           down'n'dixie

frater colt

ate clover

epicenter

in motion --

 

                  throwing my fingers away

                  at the first sign of trouble

 

                  I wasn't scared

         of my new cash devil,

                  that was a little

                           silly of me --

 

                                    fixation

                                    didn't fix me

                  terminal vacation on the house

 


                    trial after baby

 

 

disposable lighter by day

inconsolable coal in the night

 

         I wanted to make

the process as portable

as possible and when I did

it was so wack

I couldn't leave the house --

 

                  data overflow

                  in the contour

                  backlash ticket

                  to admission

 

trailing clouds of glory

we come down right fast

 

         different from reality

         and should that not be

                           our highest aim

 

 


  burrito center news

 

 

                           open curdle

         paradise of mild

                  inflammation

incompatible with

utopia.       there is a project

         to change the world

         from the inside out

all things have brought it forth

and monsters are not a problem.

 


           works in seconds

 

 

misadventure by natural causes

exception handling

a hundred eye stroke.

 

                  they kind of fork off

                  into their own little action

 

like it coulda been the twist --

 

word of mouth of man

worse than random

                  dwelt in subjection

                  so sublime

 

         [o how] it becomes it

                  flakey taste

of a bitter batter

 

         grandiose lacerations

         don't keep a woman warm,

                           when she's cold
