I)
I am inside a bullet made up of pictures and words
(a story of pragmatics)
Non-the-less, I've been born from an explosive charge
II)
I wave a path through countries, minds, and games.
Berries and stars
III)
Back in Massachusetts, all the sunsets were brief
IV)
I built a habitat around the metal and one small window
inside the base
I watch eras go, bye
V)
Coffee, Television, my canteen life
VI)
Green and other rainbow wardrobes : metempsychosis
Angular cities and endless writers' blocks.
I start to feel trapped in the inevitable killing machine
VII)
Like a car or a farm animal I am sparse in all the wrong places
A committee of dogs or were-wolf parade.
Cloak and dress this wake...please
VIII)
I had a nice idea once
(the room was bare of you)
so I left it on the shelf
next to the gas and head stamps
IX)
Story 2: As it were
consisted of you and poached threads
a comedy of notes.
My perfect decision, places just beneath my knees
X)
Story 2: Sheepskin, cheap gin, and a Falmouth hospital
Pierced by bullets and grazed in the sun.
XI)
Get back in my dreams, and out of my face.
