THE OTHERS


All I ever wanted was one windy lie. I sat on the bed,
hearing
this; over and over again I kneaded the small play-doh
crucifix
I'd made in a previous text to ward off vampires.
Behind the
glass a tabby cat was anything but tabby, and
glowering orange
was a holy color to bemuse the sutra plunge.

What to do with corporeality when eating the
pills of
artificial emotive torrents would suture wool to click
and expose
a target told to sit harmoniously quiet breathing
ether on my
neck as I heard this, straight-faced but unrepenting,
kneading
the fascist principle of communities in my hands just
overtly
cracked?

Well, she said. I turn to prose, some neat blocks
of wedding
meat turning spitefully in the saliva of calm. Could
you claim to
be anything else but? I knew I was in trouble because
all of the
relatives were gathered around the dining room table,
and I'd
been kicked out of school early on account of death.

I'm unhappy, was all she'd offer. You're too
negative, and
even in Photoshop inverting your colors won't budge
that cynicism
from your cheeks, both scarred by crying out loudly to
the walls,
whenever a breakdown would occur. Go out walking. I
want you to
come home early. Over half of this file moves and
breathes like
successful text programming.

Well, I said. You suck.

A TREE


Bloom finger, from the bottom joint toward, with fat
water
between to ripple cleavage.

Spores with green red, a reddish green savor. The
fringe gripping
onyx sightings. And bends like a dance, which washing
in bird
salutes, like an older woman's hair.

Pumping licorice from one end of once to upon a time.
Reading in
the cut.

FOOD FIGHT


You know, she dribbles sunshine
over trees from nipples maiming
the goddess virus, the goddess virus

surviving near total nuclear
ice cream fudge over the hinges to
Hey, fuck you, my man, this year's

spun from spinning spines, cotton candy
cotton candy, like gnawing fiberglass

with sugar shotguns, sugar shotguns,

VACAT(ION


I go to the shore with my
beautiful boyfriend. There
are trees, standing in
big pools of friction like
everything's electric at
the beach. My beautiful
boyfriend spreads a loving
blanket over the lake
for me to walk over. Teams
of lack players stand
waist-deep in epigraphs
for the television my
beautiful boyfriend shot
up on funny
pills. We walk over
the lake hand in
hand, but I'm not sure
which. I look down and
my wrist is sudden like
a big black bird.
