song for my martian cock

wands and swords pierce me,
tilt forward
i'm ready.
this big firm stick
between my legs
devil's delight,
feel this might! i'll ride the world's
cock till i make us
all soft. you're so
broken, and i'm
broken too. so let's
melt together and
make ourselves new.
absorbing you into me
becoming you into he.
how could i fear you
when you're just an
inverted me?
(        ) about how
we ...

words

words

clumsy wrong
insistent strong
quiet along
turn
centre unfold
shedding collapse
feeling relapse
heart synapse
syntax
 maths
counting circles
cycles mooning
waiting hold
biting lips
biting teeth
biting you
bleeding me.

circley

circley-circling
back to this same moment
every time but always
different some, different
much. round and round.
(i'm) tired and deflated
(i'm) scattered and frustrated (i'm)
escaping and avoiding
 my grief in screen
 and  moving ideas that
end up my brain.
i will write the words for strangers to read.
i'll get back on my bike.
i'll start again with breath and being.
i'll dream up an...

into it it

into it it

 

 

        it
        it

        little
        bit

        it

        takes time

    so give it

      bend down
  wipe the ground
up the dust
it say:


    time to neat
    time to clear
    time to look back
    time to say "no"
    and go

    into
    it
    it.

strength

everywhere, in excess and absence
sitting zealous, the get-take holding

    facing un-minded forgetting,
    a raising of
    love and lack-love

(not a lion, but a tooth)
(not a lady, but a tongue)

V

V

the bed you made
for me to lie in
has your joy all over it,

infuse the sheets,
infuse my needs,
with your love that looks
a million ways.

shining darkly
in the unseen
of night, there it is,

you are the most
simple mystery.
every time i
turn you over, i am
surprised and surprised
at my surprise, because

    your evening blooming flower
    is cool like my hands
    an...

you can breathe easy

you can breathe easy


    loving women
    a mathematical

   code, like
   numbers
   backwards
        stacking
        attacking
        un-lacking
          and

asking
"what's women?"
            unfolding from there.

            the thing you know it is.
            the thing you know it isn't.

and
just
when
you get to the point : when you're thinking
            ...

don't despair

salt rain on my
damp and sliming anchor.
my arm pops an agony song,
i feel the weight next to me
threat in in.
"don't despair" say the greens.
you didn't imagine it.
it's real and also you're allowed.
"don't despair" say the wind.
this part is part of you.
"don't despair" say the crashy ocean rocks.
your angle knows the rhythm to make you inhale.
you didn't imagine it.
the other thing...

right here on the edge

right here on the edge.
of a rock and a soft place.
took myself for a walk.
talked myself down.
took a taken wake,
ripped out from my
pelvic blade, electric
shock waves - hello,
up and down the bones,
leg bones,
arm bones,
brain bones,
bone bones,
break fast fit bones,
shaken flakes hit (bones)
 toes moan.
it's too cold here,
i'll take off my crown.
put down the long-armed
dista...
