We'll see motherfucker
We will see what happens
When the rain turns to gold
And your face shines
We will see what happens
When the fields come alive
When all there is is the sound
Of tiny metal legs
On frosted glass miracles
In the red snow
We will see what happens
When no one has opposable thumbs
When the night is cast out
Into the ashen trough
Of insolvency
We will see what happens
When you are thrown off the tower
When luck is just a myth
A Joey Campbell footnote
An archetype of failure
Tower faller
Motherfucker

Thus, A Ruling Was Handed Down On Tuna Fronts
Thus spake
The lords of flaky delight
Parted were the clouds
As seething shafts of light
Pierced the veil of
Hunger
With arms
And all flowing robes
Swollen with pulchritude
Did the lords say unto
The withered populace
Let there be
Tuna fronts
Massive walls of blood red flesh
Floating in on gusts of rice
A high pressure system
Of ichthyonic wonder
For all mankind
Forever
The lords of flaky delight
Parted were the clouds
As seething shafts of light
Pierced the veil of
Hunger
With arms
And all flowing robes
Swollen with pulchritude
Did the lords say unto
The withered populace
Let there be
Tuna fronts
Massive walls of blood red flesh
Floating in on gusts of rice
A high pressure system
Of ichthyonic wonder
For all mankind
Forever

some thoughts on lemons
Lemons
Why are they clean
That she washed
And laid them in
The bloody creek
Before we went
To sleep for the
Rest of the decade
Before the cranks
Came out of the
Dead house and
Cut water all over
That tumbled out
The cedar chest with
Lockets bound with
Human sadness
Lemons
Cleansed thoroughly
Why, now
Why are they clean
Why are they clean
That she washed
And laid them in
The bloody creek
Before we went
To sleep for the
Rest of the decade
Before the cranks
Came out of the
Dead house and
Cut water all over
That tumbled out
The cedar chest with
Lockets bound with
Human sadness
Lemons
Cleansed thoroughly
Why, now
Why are they clean

i killed forty-seven miners with only my mind
i lost everything

Sponges Are A Must
Sponges are a must
The drapery of milk
Across misshapen legs
The fortitude of dust
A hot collapsing barn
The sky a regal smear
Nothing here could rust
As dawn becomes retarded
Sponges were a must
The drapery of milk
Across misshapen legs
The fortitude of dust
A hot collapsing barn
The sky a regal smear
Nothing here could rust
As dawn becomes retarded
Sponges were a must

out again crushed
by the re-afterbirth of the
phoenix
i hold my books wrong
because my shoulders
are caving in
i carry something
i'm in a scratched case
a bag of blood, spots and marks
a walking glitch
a carbon spectrum
burn the safe house down
now my shoes are falling apart
and my hair is falling apart
i'm carrying something
why don't i set it down
where do i set it down
how do i set it down
by the re-afterbirth of the
phoenix
i hold my books wrong
because my shoulders
are caving in
i carry something
i'm in a scratched case
a bag of blood, spots and marks
a walking glitch
a carbon spectrum
burn the safe house down
now my shoes are falling apart
and my hair is falling apart
i'm carrying something
why don't i set it down
where do i set it down
how do i set it down

here comes the kraut again
i think from ohio
lapels straight
here's that wall
here's a sympathetic wall
ice fingers in your eyes
ice wall
leaves are coming out
of the faces of everyone
on the street like
so much junior miss chattel
in the morning
i missed dad and then
the coffee pot came on
by itself and at the door
it was the kraut
we climbed the ice wall
we slipped down
i am touching the wall
i think from ohio
lapels straight
here's that wall
here's a sympathetic wall
ice fingers in your eyes
ice wall
leaves are coming out
of the faces of everyone
on the street like
so much junior miss chattel
in the morning
i missed dad and then
the coffee pot came on
by itself and at the door
it was the kraut
we climbed the ice wall
we slipped down

Curling Tune Frock
thumbing through detritus
on the machine of dreams
it's only thursday
quiz time at rite-aid
photos dripping everywhere
milk pants wilting
in the fluorescent lipids
curling tune frock
zeroes in the forest
no one lived
on the machine of dreams
it's only thursday
quiz time at rite-aid
photos dripping everywhere
milk pants wilting
in the fluorescent lipids
curling tune frock
zeroes in the forest
no one lived

Slowly
Slowly
The lungs expire
The wheels sublime
As the weeping sun
Sets behind the
Layer mask
And granular buttons
Settle from their
Deathly perches
Slowly
Your face becomes
An indentured lung
Destined to serve
Eternity
To a grim master
Something crawls
From the organic soup
At the lake bottom
With a croaked message
For none to hear
"Stump phase"
And all is well
Slowly
The sun becomes
A rotten lifeboat
The lungs expire
The wheels sublime
As the weeping sun
Sets behind the
Layer mask
And granular buttons
Settle from their
Deathly perches
Slowly
Your face becomes
An indentured lung
Destined to serve
Eternity
To a grim master
Something crawls
From the organic soup
At the lake bottom
With a croaked message
For none to hear
"Stump phase"
And all is well
Slowly
The sun becomes
A rotten lifeboat
