Day and Night

Do not let your left hand know
what your right hand is doing.

And if you ride on surface coverings
Then ride smoothly my friends, and be sure
To ride grandly, ride far and fast
Smiling, letting the sun glint off your white teeth

Pray unto thy father in secret chambers
do not make a show of it.

And if you decide to pick moon fruits
Wandering through floating world print gardens
Licking on stamp books of Yoshitoshi
And eating the heads of enemies, the genitals of women

Before the cock crows
you will have denied me three times

Walking beside alpine pools
Pausing to drink clear water
Unfurling sail, or pulling it in
As the time, the wind,a nd the sea require

Why, oh why
hast thou forsaken me?

She sits on you, she bites you
She crawls on top of you, the drapes gently
blow in the black breezes
And you cry out, and you finally tell the whole truth

It is accomplished.

The Speed of Sound

she speaks of reich speaking about porn
and then breaks into a child or animal's sounds

whereas i hypothesize my nose behind her ear
and we luminously gather anything that any star has left

can you watch us now, gathering speed?
like stanley kubrick, like the best athletes, like beethoven

like an asteroid just barely missing the sun
so getting shot back out even faster into the icy void

im taking a down escalator, somehow standing tall against the scourge
of invisible whips - coming down the escalator

she - passing in the opposite row, in dark
the object of predating male .... whatever

pass me a cup of tea, sit with me in some french quarter
let the world spin, let people work, let them toil

let them lie, and let us lay down
