BLINDFOLD
My blindfold—my blindfold drops
I see all million eyes of the firing squad
But nothing’s revealed cuz nothing’d been concealed
I see these ancient-shaped feet of mine witnesses to distances
From all I’d learned to name as a child
I dare not beg overturn circumstance
Only that my heart makes peace with chance
Ready! Aim! Fire! But I’m still standing in my cabin expanding
Ready! Aim! Fire! Red-eyed but steady in my states of myth I inhabit
Retreat! I repeat—Retreat! Ashamed to tame all these incomplete animals inside me
Retreat! I repeat—Retreat! I bring a new name to sing with my same old tongue & thumbs

REPLICANT HEART
My Replicant Heart
molded from bark
with thick red sap & twine
We stand on our heads
& We walk on our hands
Gripped grass & a mouthful of sand
Daddy’s gloat & brag
His drunk breakfast
Family our portrait target practice
Sadistic mix of pics that I endure
All due to Daddy’s seesaw demeanor
Daddy’s too heavy
Too heavy for me
For me to keep
To keep carrying
Bird, snake, spider, black dog & fawn
Breath folds, persists, & breath curls gone
Saw black dog, bird & fish
I witness a million eyes extinguish

MODERN WING
Looking out the museum’s big window la-la-la-la
to the thick dark morning sky la-la-la-la
Looking out the museum’s big window la-la-la-la
while wiping my glasses with my shirt la-la-la-la
Looking at the thick dark morning sky la-la-la-la
while wiping my glasses with my shirt la-la-la-la
& We kissed. & We kissed. & We kissed. & We kissed.
& We kissed. & We kissed. & We kissed. & We kissed.
& We kissed. & We kissed. & We kissed. & We kissed.

TENDER ANTLERS
This little boy behind my eyes
His tender antlers still not calcified
Exposed to midwinter midnight mind
This little boy behind my eyes

AN EGG ON THE OCEAN
I call on all enchantments
I call on all enchantments
I bury my leaves elbow deep in soot
To praise the brain-like finger-like root
Priest begs doctor
Doctor begs priest
zenith to canoe
All enchantments
one by one
I petition you

FEATHER & SUN
Accept it // You need to choose // Choose to accept it
The only real need
You’re spectator & actor in this same play simultaneously & neither face gets preferential treatment // Accept it // You need to choose
Accept it // You need to choose // Choose to accept it
Your only real choice
Crashed naked into the prototypical primitive sacramental blaze
Those same nothing & everythings that compel anyone to do anything magnifying & diminishing the past with flashes of contrast
//Accept it // You need to choose
The pearl forms from the grit
On the omnipresent tit of the infinite
What do I do? What do I do?
What do I do? What do I do?
What do I do? What do I do?
What do I do? What do I do?

YAWP
Generous energy please do not falter
Express affection, patience & protection
cuz Yawp! is the measure of my concentration
I calibrate the difference flashback & expectation
Do not wreck experience
I learn how to better see & how to expand
These styled qualities that I can understand:
Depth, texture, tension & color
Welcome mystery. Allow suffering.
God’s dumb assumption of his own perfection
leaves me no option but to disobey him
to express myself
A Yawp! Ba da loo bop a Yawp! bam boom
But Nature’s completion knows such perfection
Needs to leave me a few unmet needs
with which to work in harmony
to exercise my intelligence creatively
A Yawp! Ba da loo bop a Yawp! bam boom
