Odds when binary 
Codes are the dealers 
Skullptures, something 
Thousand human 
Head bones from the last 
Two or three centuries 
Queased me out of 
The abstruse sacrifice 
Of a hangover 
20 meters underground

are two mojo-jojos 
too many for the world? 
to die in misery 
and buy a house 
or take the concorde 
to Michael Jordan’s 
ten thousand dollar 
summer basketball camp 
for out of shape people 
and fire the coach

Oh calmly I will 
Be with you when 
You lose your brain 
In the early stages 
Of normative satanology 
The reputed rod 
Of Yahweh’s coat hanger 
Antennae bringing in 
Signals of heretical 
Errors through our teeth

grab leg two heads 
aquarium in basement 
and move on. Blue 
in the shudders past 
an olive curtain. Rest 
of room is cream 
except an orange 
city map. “Myfilmsnever

Little necklights & a halting 
Way of talking, the top 
Of a rotting peach 
Baked beans and frites 
Corked beer, stink 
At lepic’s crown 
That there resembles 
Pleasure, it’s okay 
Not to say 
Where we’ve settled

I can’t believe anybody 
talked like that 
withdraw withdraw 
I gat the loon 
my childhood rugby chapel 
let twenty crabs pass 
hurling upon the future 
let us nip the grass 
as Achilles hurled 
upon his enemies

At the Smith and Jones 
Factory I get my 
Gear, don’t smoke 
Don’t vote, dry off 
With Madonna towel 
It’s a field night 
For the roachies 
Smoked too many 
Crumbs, too much 
Genre manipulation

looks like nothing 
ever happened 
except everything’s 
wet, singed cork 
rubbeth face, pay 
Thai hotel concierge 
/owner in red-checked

decapitate writer head 
sacrifice to gods of buried vocals

DugRoth says id Keats 
Was here in our burgers 
He’d slug him every time 
If he played the Welt- 
Meister? Double 
Slug. West Nile Virus 
Strikes Bill Five Times 
Tho’ he’s scared to enter 
Queens, despite status 
As honorary Met

Metro accordion player speaks: 
“If the global workforce 
continues to be decimated 
by disease & natural catas- 
trophe it will be necessary 
to clone a workforce. 
please give in advance 
to help create this force 
in exchange for these 
accordion songs. Merci.”

It takes a dick 
To raise a pyramid 
Motorcycle crash 
On the tongue, small 
Business buried, this short 
But expansive demonological 
Expose is, in all probability 
My own diabolized & garbled 
Version of raising “the listener” 
To the rank of dualist “believer”

three nines, plus fifteen 
two fours king high, lose five 
two fives ace high, lose five 
nothing ace high, lose finger 
right index. Zilch, ace 
high, lose left thumb 
ten and seven pairs, get thumb 
back, doesn’t fit. Two fives 
hand back thumb. Six high 
lose hand, split.

The moral right of the author 
Has been deserted 
And tearful words that rhyme 
You are not crumbling and 
You are tired of crumbling 
The moral continuum 
Of the gobot’s heresy 
Has been dejected 
With feelings of paranoia 
Thank Augustine, for

like Leonard Nimoy 
you and I are made 
mostly of water. But 
when the assholes play 
ukeleles and gloat 
about cheap rent 
the sight of the world 
quarters me. Thus I regress 
shame and embarrassment 
fucking up the life

Many otters are also 
Making current loans 
Whilst unable 
To find the function 
Button next to the 
Pause button. 
While you were invisible 
I was privvy 
To the seamscape 
Brutish preconfiguring was there

end poem with gambling 
write out dreams 
another personal rule 
broken to quote face 
death unquote, with 
apologies to the just now 
stomped roachie. 
“they were all my friends 
and they died”, an old 
thread and a new one

Coptic art, blue lady 
Bahrain coin, midnight 
Medoc, Eddie snickers 
Insects attack, denim guy 
Who robs drug stores 
Yearning to speak: 
Cocktail fugitive angst 
Ball refuses to be thrown 
Be not frozen in cigar 
Store scared to emote

basically we need 
a cultural tilting of the bowl 
or diseased markets. Interrogation 
chairs pile up outside 
guides. Primitives drool 
intelligence. I can't find 
the light. Two degrees 
outside. The city at odds. 
poetry is my strength		 
clothes are my weakness

Nobody comes over 
And never leaves anymore 
Incidental back to a sill 
Calm, poignant, terrified 
Volunteer me a busride to 
Chase middle fingers with bats 
Blooming by the pond 
I did not hug the tranquil 
Endowment after a wedding 
Drank everything in sight

pigeon now. weird big 
books everywhere jogging 
in hollywood t-shirts 
we raised this park 
and built a pond by 
which to shoot movies 
they shot us on the pond 
and it was the best “I hate 
that dog” I ever had 
feeding with a bottle

Now Eddie’s bored 
People invented God 
To excuse their bad 
Habits this roach 
Says to me. There 
Isn’t anyone it 
Even wants to imitate 
Eddie and I play anti- 
Chess, both begin 
In mate

now Ross is gone 
bearer of sock herb 
impresser of exiled 
temps. Um is my 
comment, leaking 
uranium on the sea 
bed. Others tilt 
ever so slightly 
swoopward, blame 
the spiritual outsider

At the reading reaching 
For the bar food “Well 
We’ve got to put those 
Subs somewhere or else 
Sell them as staples 
Of a fast food fat 
Reducing diet”. Find 
And replace he said 
I see a crabby 
Peering through a crag

passenger next to antagonist 
all my darkness is product 
I sell it your way as wisdom 
you lose blue, use red 
I see my feet sometimes 
artificial's the right word 
clinical joy unreported 
poke a hole in a blanket 
and with your head 
go through it

I’ve never met any 
Mysterious musicians 
Sorry. I wish 
They stopped saying 
Lord, and ended 
This Pope business 
My relative Clapp 
Died at the Alamo 
Let's give Texas 
Back to Mexico

the original of this 
poem is available 
for $5,000. When 
I sell it I plan 
to buy a debris 
slide. I’m broke 
but I make more 
money than my 
parents did when 
they were my age

Solid boundless freefall 
My connective tissue 
My fine citizen centering 
Circles this frame 
Upside down flying 
Back first into 
Woods, flipped 
Over handlebars 
Brake cord detached 
Leaf imprint on back

what is interesting 
about him is also what 
is wrong with him 
rendering him electable 
he’s the guy who poses 
for trophies, biologically 
but he is turning into 
bio-seitan, to be eaten 
by a despicably healthy 
human extending a lifespan

I can get a sparrow 
With a bow and arrow 
I can buy anything 
Cheaper than you 
Who wasted the miracle 
On the dove? 
The subject is SAME 
NAME. There's nothing 
To cross out. $5000! 
Have a happy warning

if you don't understand 
don't be ashamed 
to ask three times 
the answer is TIGHT-LIPPED 
you have won $30, 300 
can I have a glass of water? 
the Americans had Judy 
Garland & we had Edie Piaf 
he was set to do another season 
of Superman, then he was shot
