[move back]
shattered my brain
[come close] opened my brain
searched for resources to assemble the heart
found a whale inside harpooned and plunged
[break in] [don’t move] I see the sun feast I eat
with every tooth becoming a pill becoming a landslide
my mouth pleads with itself I beg for carnage ─ undone
with every day becoming more of a compressed 0 ─ as the detail as the vivid
sheen ripples goneward─ [move in] I gesture to air, I dance in the panorama
[spin] set loose like a string unwrapped everything so far has a lot to do with
splitting and the cracks mean surely and I anticipate the other whale’s blood clot
and I pray and crack the code bandage corinthians what pertains to me is the
slit a california purple deep in the arm from punch drunk some thing impact
means of course waking up why do my codes break easily why do my deserts
divide themselves into rags [move through] I ten commandments the wind for
nothing I beg and demand for nothing I carry myself out like a wish from the
apartment to the sidewalk I see fractal twentyfold the trees shoot their
commands in rose quartz nebula I drink the well calmly
I split momentary disarray
shattered my brain
I kiss womack
[plunge] I kiss instruction
the sound of a whistle
and the sound of a movie
from yesterday’s absence
[dancehall] I raise myself
off the carpet and into
the splash of light
pouring through the
window pane
how lovely and
insufferable
to sense this
cut to feel the
blade of
everything
