Poppyskins |
In the kindness of the playground |
Aleph unveiled his claws |
As Pazuzu scrolled into town |
Murderer Murderer Murderer |
Small of Destroyer and fierce in his poverty |
My back is broken by his teeth |
On the mountain I as He rested |
The streams bite into the rocks |
Fissures gleaming with transparent blood |
Water mimicking the temple |
Teeth shuddering in the ghostlike face |
Of the faminedeliverer |
The locustbringer Adam |
The poppyskins were the clothes on the skin |
Raw as wind |
Pink like jets |
Red like the Bibles drifting in the streets |
Folded leather Sebek |
Root ⲥⲃⲕ |
All the cuneiform all the clay face |
The wedges stuck in my heart |
And spelled: |
«The Murderer is here |
Cain is here, and brings strange graves |
And pens with poison |
The lands he hands to sheep or goats |
Clustered on the rock bleating for gold |
And mammon» |
Cain is here |
His breasts torpid |
Beasts dissolving in the deserts |
Smog and promise and the icon |
Leaching wax or rubber |
Smiling wordlessly |
«Oh Aleph where are you |
And your whirling arms and the patience |
That took you a trillion years and spears and so |
Beak fear and harbour and trains» |
