Say hello to the end & its big fucking jack-o-lantern grin
Stay (how long) 'til the end & dilute the blood beneath my skin

Blackened nails & acumen
Lacerated fists full of arrowheads
Arid bones & hollow men
Lie down on marrow beds

Say hello to the end

The compass is stuck; direction destructs

Petty for want of maintaining a precedent
The canopy smirks at argument
A verdant recess worthy of still-life
Feet on new floors & the charms of an aleph

Genesis in the occident
Parenthesis of a continent

Allegiant t

a consequence of circumstance is nigh with fury below
a sad scene swallows all the silken skies & shadows

& if i'm to be clear while in this seventh house
patient as it nears, push fleeting flashes out

this shackled ether draws on fortune's lease by lending

See an absorber resist the wringer
Not much for palaver & barely a singer
Throw a dart at the map, set sight to where it falls
With years in the rear view & ears in the walls

Slowly, lowly, my oh my only
Slowly but surely the sling is slackening

Reduced to a s

Oh on that airline, a silver-bottomed plus sign
Please sit keeping silent, a napkin a design
The air is ground unfortunately, slipped through the turbine
Oh pointed intently at smile blinding sunshine

I remember blinks & a soaking subtle sea sign I missed
Thinning air i

O ye of many faces, whose stumbles seal the coffin
A bloom to bring the latest cos trials shed too often

In whispers fake an orchard, affection just like coughing
Belies the lately tortured; can't hide or make it soften

The mask you kept eliding grows warped in its concealing

If they're always reticent to believe
There is gasoline on the crest of the hill
What will straining lines of five years deign to leave
As the tissues are broken down & the flame burns the will

Writ in edges, made amends it hums a single note to me
Burrs on clothing &am

Pelted with signs & reminders of how we was
You & I try to find remnants of rousing cos
We tessellate & retain what they gave us to
Fail & relate what we lose in our grievous moods

Hues & peruse with a delicate four zero two
Style & defile cos she wa

Let the heat out & bring the cold on
You chose reticence, i chose song
Let the heat out & bring the cold on
Deaf to evidence, bearings all wrong

All sixes & sevens but faithfully catalogued
A yawn from the kerosene mouth of antiquity
Clepsydra's overgrown, steamsoaked with anchor fog
Tempers & harrowing drought plead iniquity

The crux of the outage oh small thoughts seize territory
Sparring with icons in min

The line extending up from my heart into your head
Is an error-seeking path & pleasantly misled
& although they may be significant to free
The older babies are younger sons-to-be

On transit footfall plays, comfort comes in waves
A million-sided face breathing memori

Like how when you hear us on the airwaves
You can't help but picture a voice in our mouths
And your oral muscles feel the syllables sympathetically

Like how the copper will turn green
Showing time in a chromatic array
In passing cos the spectrum's lost its sheen
I hope

Bring your borders forth, i've made it this far
Messages in morse borne from the same star
Things to forget & things to lose
With fingers crossed, everything continues

Even cold seems warm when freezing
Shades of vernal harm make it easy
Pendulums & riddles in o

Find an analog & a volume
For twice the give of your coil
One to another, all are soluble
Dissolving shades evading spoil

An ounce of debris in an errant gyre
A curl of blue in a drip on the lens
Fibers & dyes for clothing our sire
Secretive ink, a weary def

Wish me luck like i wish it meant anything at all
More layers, more prayers, a visitor in resonance
Sunlessly woven repose & recall
A wind shakes the flags of our loyalty & provenance

I roam the past in pursuit of my best mind
Through bends in the trail & dislod

Little flourishes with friends to whom i'm old news
There's something of the night about you

Tie your tether on (the knot keeps slipping out)
Eyes wide, breathe deep, blood flow, push through
Expand to keep, contract & rue
Pools round your feet, eyes with circles

You were a sweet pursuit held fast with city roots
Neglected by the chute, our gaze is rendered mut

Oh dusk intended silences & corners pulling yellow
With valleys for their styluses & graphics for her fellow
Our Sunday morning starknesses sang false endearing senses
A frame of preening darknesses made mortar for their fences

It is not over, you just don't know what y

Litanies as merciless dividers
Pearly rain protectors & providers
Oh at land the eye becomes the author
Tenses drift & one outlasts the other

My dear i'm new at this & i'll still be when i'm through with it
So now i'm done for; what had i begun for?

Gusty

such habit pains the lungs & it chokes the pen
great circle route destroyed all my rounds again
shared palms upon the sill rousing dust in light
flared pace in empty words may delay foresight

o ragged wind
o hallowed tint

oh it takes a lot, so i'll give more than
