late at night out in the garage
smoking
the sound of automatic weapons
fire
seems to emanate from your location
on the roiling mists like the pall
of a city, burning
i came there to
tell you something
now anything i say
is a psychotic lie
i will remember it
so
stones cry
forever
an emitter is just
one component
in a circuit
which by definition
performs work
she was glowing
in the dark
down time
a little way
slightly out of phase
the pain is mostly constant
like light plus or minus
no talk of caring
no talk at all
i just want to sit
i suspect you have
forgotten that as well
it will be better this way
with so much affirmation
so small a passing
imageine
the best that you can
the way that it was
time of the signs
rose mountain wine
clear green skies
i feel you needing me
duyou duyu
yesyes

could be anything
you want
voices in my head
talking about you
that's right
The voices in my head are talking about you.
A complete declarative sentence.
Should delete it.
staccato stutter of keys
gone jingle jangle
grating against metal
bolt slide
snick
it was a like a sound
at first, then i felt
i felt it on my skin
and
all the words went
red to black
just then
bare metal
static hazard
vulnerable to ice
programming
tiny lightnings
snap tick
smoke
test failed
nano-slag now
bitch
i'll leave it all open
in a nother dimension
can i get it in there?
yeah yeah she
made it better there
no no
i don't know
the one i'm gonna ask
os what happened?
it's the
love-and-crossed-bones
this time or
perhaps you just remember
when we were kids
20 seconds away from
what does it take to
get your attention,
really?
you're not on any channel
you had advertised
and the search patterns
still returning empty
a coding issue?
you left me for dead
and i shouldn't xxxx
cause i told you to
not
not
not
three times but once
this is not my home
world mind - i'm
still only in yourx
save now and come home

it's the phase of the moon
or something
she said
eating at me like a cancer

My name is shipped by the fi>i and

The
if you were to see me as i
really am now here in this
filthy room building a net
one number at a time until
this place we are now like
smoke spiraling up through
the still air of afternoon
inna room with the windows
closed and the shade drawn
white noise easing the air
pressing against my head i
feel it all the time now i
don't think i can stand it
malformed request press it
i would do while she was sleeping
slowly
winding and unwinding the strings
of her guitar
miles of wires
through all those nights
i just didn't make the grade
it seem
they want the
dude to like
them
wnr i6'e w
i eon o2 can now
temperature and respiration
boundaries
you took her word and
whut
found out later that she
lied
this sparse matrix of words
will evaporate to soon case
soak them in water or
milk first to soften
so this was it and i
missed it again even
you didn't want more
of that particular i
i can't sleep anymore
and food hurts
all i can think about
is you and
i think it is killing
me
but you're right
that doesn't really
matter
i know you don't remember
after moon rise
those nites
i know you don't remember
after midnight
those times
dark now
maybe forever
i know you do remember
how to get noticed
in a crowd
i know you do remember
who got sed to be not
the one of
it's a language
it's a process
i know you don't remember
the fair day sun rise
the muggy rooms
i know you don't remember
party who're our candy babylon
the other
who re or ca do me rem baby
i know you don't remember me
either
it's okay; really it is
it's probably a good thing
'cause
i know you don't remember
everything i know you don't
need to
so gaze deep into my crystal circuits
(all humming and glowing all night)
and tell me
who you do know and why and
i will understand you then
i know
the dinny voices of
all the dead whores
who couldn't put it
together and didn't
make it through the
long dark tunnel of
life
saying all those things
that eve-ry one seem so
afraid of even though i
know each naming song &
up on wires
against this guy
shakin' tail-feather
songbird and
yer wingman
didn't make a
move
till i looked
around
and you were
gone
all inna smoke & broad day light
is just what i do
in love with a woman who is a
lying whore
and i know she is a
lying whore
but i love her anyway
is just what i do
in this very personal hell
waiting for you to
manifest
our destiny
the mice came
when the cat died
that same night
hoardes of them
ugly brown rats
from the alleys
and pewling grays
from attic mattress
skittering across
the kitchen floor
take one, then two
glancing blows of
a stainless skillet
before a third
catches him square
insides spurting from
gaping mouth in
crushed skull
flattened in mid-stride
every little bone broken
worm food now, but chlorine
desiccates even the genes
drying to dust and powder
over the coming months as
squash grows
and seasons change from
damp heat to icy howl
all in a nonce
and we are far down the path
ever on the road to when we
imagine
i no longer remember the year
but the garden & camaraderie
sweating & swatting gnats
all going wrong then
we all knew
it was the weather though
perhaps none will believe
for another score years
it was an ill spring then
and now the endless war
who will in their turn
shit you out and you will
become once again one with
the earth beginning again
the cycle of life - but
i only say that because
i know there are some
who might see you
and imagine
the narrowness of mind is pain
even now - after time
this is our mind
tiy
who are we?
'd better get something done about this at once'n
GO

ye old mud daubin whore nit
i don' kno whut i's liek to be

do they?
i don't know what it's like
now they're ever'where
a true thing
settling over us
like clouds
i doan kno whut iss lyke

the birds will come for you
so fast, you won't even know
it's them
and
that's that.
"They will tear you apart like
an owl with a mouse and feed
you to their young."

are you packing your things
getting ready to go

all the times I wonder that

white sand beach
late at night moving
along the edges
of light
and
the dark of the moon
can we live like this
do you know
has it been done
where do we start?

at a world i thought i

she made the pain go away
let us be u freaks i am u

loons calling in the west
passing nearby
you will go on forever
saucers are coming for you
i am not the one

you'll
never see me again
an never miss it
it was
in you contract
fine print
i'll see you
and raise
the moon was full
it was raining at
sun rise
smoky gray light
drifting across
the landscape
a sense of
unease
feeling you were angry
and
wondering what did i do
was it
the way i entered the
room without waiting
to be asked in
i knew you had be told
you were dealing with
a vampire
but it wasn't me, see
can you see your
reflection
can i
