throw it all up
catch what comes down
the rest can be left
on the ground
buy me a river
bottle your tears
we’ll sell ’em for ten cents a pound

poem: make something else up, endure it for a bit
make something else up, endure it for a bit
tear it down and build anew today
the time has come again to put yourself into the maw
of Old Tom James and whomever’s in the know
dig deep
poem: shearing yellow light, wreathe the world in gold
shearing yellow light, wreathe the world in gold
makes you rather well
archives arising, waiting for rendition
apart but alive and that’s swell
pick out the smells from the forests and bushes
grab up events for the basket
poem: fume-headed, too deep underground
fume-headed, too deep underground
pulling out from
deadly
gasses
left to yawn and thrash
grateful for the sky
poem: can’t keep on track
can’t keep on track
’cause I keep looking back
and filling my ears up
with static
I’m mad in the attic
too blackly didactic
you can head out once you’ve had it
poem: try it here, try it there, try it here again
try it here, try it there, try it here again
another several hours at the water hole
push on, push on, write!
that’s why you make the bucks
(though big they’ve never been)
poem: painless, insensate; absolution
painless, insensate; absolution
all around you
with the effort of our days
revoke soaking: impress the pen
clacking of keys as soothing brook
as cooing babe
as day after day
