[Transcending bars that transcend all others]

 

Transcending bars that transcend all others.

Feeding mango to the starving peasants,

making love to you in the courthouse while

hanging on a rusted tetanus pipe, a

god of lightning watches. My coat hangs

itself up as I wash the showers with glue,

remove both my ears and place them to the

walls like tumblers in a jimmying safe.

 

My inevitable wine needs space and

peace to comprehend love in the end of

all. Foliage closed your mouth by drinking

a gallon of speed in these skate boards

flying to where we walk them. At the table

we resume taking our shoes off on our

plates and picking them apart like grey

plaid assed glasses. Vans take me to places

 

I still don't know, I point at the maps like

connecting dots; no words come out when I

think of a name composing the same words

fixed to my name. Each curse taken is like

a doctrine of rhymes standing to teach

seduction how to rhyme arhythmically.

 

Wonders found me so I would wonder quickly.

Good friends come from good jokes, great gifts come from

telescopes. You say that ways you make hair

with sleeping pills and monkeys in a chain

gang are sexy; I’m only paraphrasing

the words you read to me like trees growing

unripe jubilant in my ears. The weird

sincere ideas of some days displace with

the uncertainty of a pair of new

dentures, bloating me up with dust and guitars.
