The Nudes Lift Shields for War |
The West got the rest it deserved |
Drowning under oysters |
Sailing on disappearance |
Underwater |
But infallible the blossoms |
In the far night |
Under the tabernacle |
The mermaids drift joylessly |
Queer metermaids |
Snapdragon elves |
Invert against Æons |
That guided missiles |
Into the Alchemist’s home |
The credit card is cancelled |
The Storm-her eye on the sores |
And the eyes and ears |
Of wild blind eyes |
The buckethome |
Of the unready phrase |
Grand marsh of the ⲛⲓϥⲉ |
«Night! |
Death! |
Storm! |
Omega!» |
The traffic lights flicker out at Mamre |
The last thing I saw were your eyes |
They were as loud as stars |
As mute as the twilight sinking |
Over the olive tree |
Licking flames from the burning bush |
Scales stairs always up |
The monsoon was driven by the storms |
Into the valleys |
By chic tombs the swallows drift |
Ironic to their end |
The kittens fill turquoise cages |
In time to the milkmaid’s slow calling |
Pain in the plough in the fields |
The green greedy fields |
Bleed lace and dream |
Machines and chips |
And Aladdin’s wires |
The alleluia buzzes |
Brimming with sounds of storms and vowels |
As voiced by the deaf |
On the palates the shapes and their heads |
Like berries lush in the summer |
We were all ready to drop |
The sound of the storm was spears |
Ripped phrases from the First Garden Log |
Sensational news! |
«The nudes lift shields for war!» |
But swivel and bank to the left |
Breast bared the amazon |
And blind lens shuts over rivers |
Hovering illly over the mist |
The cataract approaches might in grins |
Growls borrowed histories |
Maps are scored and scraped |
Debris, white pens, rust, root |
Swarf, machines, bad faith |
To Us |
Us |
Us |
Us |
The clouds drown in mists |
Covers the sow, the bristle |
The tiny mouth huddled |
In the box of blisters |
Floods comics of bibles |
