Sober Dionysian The sound I did not hear The call I never made The language I can’t abide This language speaks for me Hands that took – what had no hands to give Fell over falling – locked in sullen worship Blood like clockwork – mechanical compromise Open mouth - for your design Swollen quiescence - boredom enshrined Prayer for monotony – a standard decline Fell over falling Falling to be felled

Hunter of lost works To go on As if it’s time to go on Time is analogy Fate is a cliché, or a blunt knife Rings around my neck I can’t remember- how you looked -when I said - I had to go You didn’t hear – I never told you – you thought I - was someone else Haunted pendulum, sharpen my bones Black shield, silver wound Premonition in flesh No hell I have not met Could compare to you Escaped Escaping still Dislimb euphoria Oxygen is rust Escaped Escaping still I can’t remember- how you looked -when I said - I had to go You didn’t hear – I never told you – you thought I - was someone else

Astral depths The light—I can hear Elastic angels—hang from the sky Songs made of burning Invisible pyre Noxious halo Celestial mire Through—the—window Over—the—ocean Atomic rainbow Counterfeit fire Orgasm—of—junk A scripted oblivion Ganglion star Breathe the night Septic contortion Shadows--in—earth Darken—the—glow Through—the—window Over—the—ocean Cloud of fortune Spectral drift There is no exit An atmosphere—that—does not exist Animal jack-knife Melting fists Hot scent of iron Omnivorous rift Shadows—in—earth Darken—the—glow Shadows—in—earth Darken—the—glow

The Goat that Swallowed the Sun Where fathers Bury fathers Where there are No sons Long road From castration To glory ‘The doll was found by the jawbone of a man’ Religion of intrigue Guilt without object Erotic—impotence We can’t return We won’t return I defy you to return The image seeks itself Through the eye of the Borromean knot The face of god Beckons the face of god Besotted mud Pass through my body Call me totem And taboo Clasp the symbol At my throat The face of god Beckons the face of god We can’t return We won’t return I defy you To return
