Sienna Lapse


Stone head, deaf to onion finger wounds, peel the
moisture from models of political ports. Your eyes
sink deeper in your head as light like a fist
spellchecks moments in which the cold pills palsy
saccharine speeds that betray burnt hungers of sienna
lapse.

Stone head, I'll pick you up at the airport. force
onions into your fingers to lie to the dead. In order
to better focus on November, the cold pills lyricize
teeth like the worst of all possible headaches.
Shimmied to an artery deep in stone, you'll watch
everything behind you slip liquid reflections over the
screen from which you feed, a network (a curt curl of
algae, algorithmic syncopation), or through which your
freezing glides like glassy bulbs on thin rope
workspace. I like the ugly boots you've flung upon the
chair.

Stone ends of live webs, when I flinch from
recollection of unsatisfying girls ripped around
falsifying hymns with steganographic innaccuracies of
gaze, a sallow prayer reaches out for me. You. who are
balanced by your lust for typing, grow positively
ludic in charred chat response. I love everything
that could go wrong.

BURLESQUE AND THANKFUL


The trees, who have inexplicably decided that nudity
serves the cold, wash over the blacktop in a spill of
tawny veins. November spins frost where once moods
pooled. In a loop a sky failing nothing but this death
of autumn on pavement and traffic sands falls through
each phase in a blink that stutters. She wants warm
cooking to ease the chill from her hands. The burden
of mothers sums all familial marks in the arc of her
loving the kitchen with thankful motion. As male, I
wash in the lighter stones of strange birds calling my
eyes glued shut to a physics of remorse. This season
is good for stripping.

Voiceless tongues


~celebrating Pauline Masurel's Blue Hyacinth texts~
http://vispo.com/StirFryTexts/bluehyacinth3.html

The Blue Hyacinth thinning through mice hands
simulated
looming minions moving over carrion briefly augmenting
gouged repetition in the limpid eye with a fork in the
road.
-Why can't I see you tonight, the woman beneath thick

warm sheets of glass asks. -Why can't I move my lips?
A woman my age or the highway greets you to an

unstable text. We speak blue ice cream meaty in tongue
numbering millions, a hit spot of road known lowering
voiceless tablets into alka-seltzer spyware. -Who

can tell me the way to some placid spotting
when I'm bent over the beltway, fingers laced in
fingers' lateness, and you shelf levitation on a round
of business, stabbing war in the ribcage with a
cigarette?

Re: Buy Nothing Day

Right, Francis...the U.S. tends to spread its consumerism like a virus...I'm waiting for the kids in Afghanistan to quit killing themselves over religion and ideology and start shooting themselves over tennis shoes...(my god, that's awful cynical, Mr. LaCook)....
...or maybe break free of it all? (my god, Mr. LaCook, that's naive)----
(quite possibly, speaking of oneself in the third person is a form of commoditization of the self)
