along your skin lost my language
black lip and red carnation
safe house safe
tap shoes break union station marble
wrapped in malpractice
quiet in the sway
oooo-sing to me pink and sour
oooo-drop down drop down
de-sung ribcages shelter
wound river languid
husk of old jet
sweet light tavern in the morning
taxi driver silent
hard long hands
oooo-kill the kitchen kitchen light
oooo-drop down drop down
safe house dead trying to whisper
a soft vaccination
cotton in the calm
along your side lost my language
on sand and smoke foundation
loose in the sway
oooo-sing to me pink and sour
oooo-kill the kitchen kitchen light

. . .


the icicles chime
fingerings lost in the motions of our hands
sit just as you are
lost in the crime
carry the choir
age and peel
after the quiet bleeds peel and age
familiar peace in the pain
pulling you wrong in soft belief and midnight finish
a violent quiet freeze
the carnival fighters are sharing a bed tonight
bruised in the hay
the circle around the brawl divides in frozen rain
on spiders house
after the quiet bleeds peel and age
familiar peace in the pain
raindrops tremble and wait to freeze
on spiders house

. . .


the violins collide
into a rabbit chase a lost try
lay easy now in warmer hours
and steal back the century
the open window lets it in
sunday noises scratch you awake
our mice and skulls old wives
projected on the black sand
thin my blood california
if we ever get to home
plant myself among the weeds
and pray the violins collide
into a rabbit chase of careful words
plant you deep down in the clay

. . .


emptying yourself for sleep
soft bones a skeletal stretch of drive
skinny arms your white dress
comes cigarette teeth by now
the eye you lost in the crusades
is planted in the sand
kneeling by wait to reap another sight
this where you leave behind
your brush fires and wedding day
our ethiopian bones
the pictures and the pills
remember when this was the ocean
tiny rivers bleed the map
the eye you lost in the crusades
is planted in the sand

. . .


catacomb wine
a Chinese actor loses heart
just about to flower ready and wet
root crown sweet ever on
tricks the light
legs entwined
brick on pedal
chain on wheel
bones and bread
tenderness
here we are
held and carried
warm from the machines
fixing the afterlife
saints and angels sex lives switch wives
a belly what's never seen the sun
root crown sweet ever on
trust came slanted
made no mention
bones and bread
tenderness
a dim head light
arrives
friction breathe
tenderness
trust came slanted
legs entwined
brick on pedal
chain on wheel
bones and bread
tenderness
here we are
held and carried
hot blind fight
empty armor
dim head light
arrives

. . .


scratched and bit
crawl out of the faultline
this book is the mask on the bride
circle til the engine dies tail high
let it lay
burn our dead shin high
it's almost surgical
the way you shatter when you hit the water
drawn on the window steam
claws on sleep addiction
this conversation is the dust
on anything slow and green
burn our dead
this unwilling
is the way you shatter when you hit the water

. . .

. . .


When all the numbers swim together and all the shadows settle
When doors forced open shut again a flytrap and a petal
My eyes burn and claws rush in to fill them
And in the morning after the night i fall in love with the light
It is so clear i realize and here at last i have my eyes

When all the figures sound retreat the soft skin starts to shrivel
When dreams made real become less sweet the orchid and the metal
My sex turns and claws rush in to spill them
And in the morning after the night i fall in love with the light
It is so pure i can arrive without the fear of seeing my eyes

When all the characters full size and every moon is level
When all the spirits burn in lies as center grief by steel
My eyes burn and claws rush in to fill them
But in the morning after the night i fall in love with the light
It is so clear i realize and now at last i have my eyes

. . .


wire in the teeth
while we warm twine
while we breathe
skip notes and bless
where you been
we lose days
broke hearts are whole
or burned by the christians
recline held under your tongue
like a tiny stone carried home
sung throated air
down your spine
crown cooks light
we wolfed and whale bellied on
we shone down
blinder and winterless days
lost a black ocean recline
held under your tongue
like a tiny stone
paid and gone

. . .


sons and mothers
red hand rise
side door bones
belly and limbs
mudslide daughter
wrung sweet wine
nail and dime
a glasswork heart
yolk and scotch
mask and bed
mudslide daughter
sons and mothers
orchard orchard
mask and bed
ice on dancers
broken feet
spit and shine
black metal valentine
mudslide daughter
side door bones
not for mine
black metal valentine
tiny wrens to take the dinner
from your teeth
black metal valentine

. . .


water dissolving into water
a head asleep upon a lap
animal dream
animal tongue
animal medicine
rose petal ear
between my fingers
water dissolving into water
a head asleep upon a lap

. . .


hands fit together like medicine
butterfly itch on a bottle rocket tail
everything is bleeding
shake the glass out of your hair
spell your name in broken teeth
3 legged animals
shut their sweet eyes
lick your scars and grow wings
sleep for me sleepless
dream for me dreamless
hands bleed together fine
sweat off your makeup peel
and wait in washed out gold
ease back warm electric chair
leave your memories
we're almost new
sleep for me sleepless
dream for me dreamless

. . .


candy glass
sun on red tile
this winter bed
lives and breathes
winter bed
could do so much
if you would
