Quick poem for Duncan's sculptures
swollen their hard-soft bellies
that are not bellies beyond mathematics
their beaks that are not beaks
this sculptor of the infinite
will confound us with his Grecian tricks
as a sky will fool us with its love

riverghosts aside
the grass in the glint
the hand of your hand
the river's brush
the sun's cackles as the low
small things
away they won't
go the infested the path
what
now always never

ONESUPPOSESTHEAPOLOGIA (eek means also)
there is not one moment in/for which
the clockface of dandelions blown
out as basements will not tell
its facial tells at the table in the tension
of rigging ropes in the niceness tarred
as ancient kings of Natron salt
of all kinds and hues they all taste
with deep ceramic spoons they call it
that now that lying together in sleep or else
now world and children ere the moon the spoon
clock that has no face that has no rise
upon it at dawn and withafter dawn
and at nightsfall in the holy sex
of six and six and nine and hereafter
where the deadfolks the deadfux
as we now lay/lie with our feet updown
on the slow-rafted yet again to flux
what we have love what we have
death in all of it like fossil vampires
what sucks up fires eek phires
eek oupyres eek
so let loose
the fucking goose
eek lend-lease
the freaking geese

it means like the shifting the wheeling
of Patton's army to Bastogne in an instant
this miracle that cannot happen
like that it will not be trusted
for we have no priests with weather prayers
such forces as will have to be arrayed
Oh look, a delight of confluence
of water of flowers of light
and all down the road to the shakes
our hearts delighted
until we reck we rode with skeletons
such liches and fetches
all of it gone now
like unto little lights
underwater snuffing our futures
past and unpast we will not learn or unlearn
our stories of our lost children
.

always though they follow
all our secrets it is as though
we had convened perhaps
at the riverside
had been alerted to the coming
of the river monster and had fled
dispersed
never to be seen again
our lives are safer now
though so much lessened
by this dearth of monsters

cast up upon the tide
that all my eyes might gaze aloft

ghosts by the river
the glint in the grass
the brush of your hand
the river
the sun low as the cackles
the small things
they won't go away
the path is always infested now

hair-clips
there's nothing left of this but hairclips
perhaps some DNA
which even post-apocalypse
takes time to wash away

look harder
look at each other
across the vast gulf
and try to read
what is in your hearts and heads
most of all try
to read yourself
in the eyes of the other
life is so short
so capable of beauty and disaster
it's too late now to look
for anything but truth
as we fly out of the room
on wings of cold silk
love is all we have
that keeps us airborne
gazing down as vibrant birds aloft
into what we know is coming soon
borne upwards in that sudden great heat
and cold that last swoon
to meet us and catch us forever
in its last known slap sideways
into nothing
take your chances and love real hard
little bird

rag-rug rag
if you can make it here
there's still no guarantee
that you could make it in the Gaza Strip
or the frozen methane
of somewhere else entirely so these fond statements
are very probably false
I recommend you do not trust them
all existence is suffering, sayeth
he sort of as dukkha
O the unsatisfactoriness
of what changes and cannot be relied upon
others of course make of this a virtue: Forever Changes;
Change is Stability and so on
but this too is falsehood, for all those people
died and liked it not much
it's not said to be a great thing
this withering and dying
best not to start it too early
one has nothing to report.
the changes are the same
as they ever were
the same rug from under the same stupid feet
life goes on so thick and fast
so in a whirl of things
stop it, freeze it and examine
the psychical genome
write it here
figure the real options
then and only then
proceed to alight upon the Earth
all the while conscious
that it is spinning and will spin you
one has nothing to report.
the changes are the same
as they ever were
I intend to be married to a stranger
by the end of the day
.

patachresis draught
The raw, which contain bark shavings and bugs during scraping, is placed in canvas tubes (much like long socks) and heated over a feu. This cause the raw to liquify, and it seeps out of the canvas, leaving the bark and bugs behinds. The thick, sticky pasture is then dried into a flat sheete and broken into flakes, or dried into "bouttons" (pucks/cakes), then debagged and sold. The end-user then crushes it into a fine powder and mixes it with ethyl alcohol prior to use. If all is performed aright the bug god will quickly appear.
