toilet paper that you have never seen

before falling from the

skies as if there

was a kind of toilet paper god

that the immortals had been

suppressing until this time, this time

of all time, the moment that you

needed a nose bleed.

Willing a man to the edge

of his wilderness. a deer stands on

the table, life is his blue eyes, life his

antlers dragging against the

chandelier, life is waiting in the dark

just before the the lights turn on. he swore to

his mother that there was nothing downstairs,

that the silverware was safe. he swore

that fence was clean and that

nothing could leap across it.

the baby has a heart, but

the birds don’t hear it. they swarm the

child as a means of protection, still, out of instinct.

the language in their beaks

penetrate the waves in the air. a

cry in the wilderness, from a

man in the mountains.

we didn’t fall asleep when we were driving

if you feel alive and then stop on the

edge of a

porno district with

neon letters slipping around corners

and spelling out special crimes, if you

say that the moon is something special, but you

can’t say how, then you may

have stumbled and fallen

between metaphor and

spectral

fable.

if one day there were eyes

and they could see through flowers, then

the truth would be full of bees and

other winged insects. the light knows us,

it searches for our pigment, it longs to touch our

skim milk and

make it brown as

leaves.

if there are powers somewhat

nearby then they must act soon or

the leopards will lose their

hunger for the wild. art will

stare back at us. spiders will

break the wills of the spider webs. legs, arms

antlers are the futre.

anxious pleasantries, bnl, high times, slurred speech

a spear the has been used for

centuries. a stage that has

been left to melt under the rain. a

priest of old religions that have been

found to be false. the satellites

run round us, until the spots

on our livers show. the mix of red and

yellow, the mingling of

sad and bloodloss. a point to the sky, a

theatre for the ages. Life has come to

spread itself. hemlock trees kill the survivors.

when one depends on the future, to

direct colour to the sky, to let

it jump at the clouds and

then to have it fall down like

the many many cheeses that have been

given to pizzas over the years. when we see the

sunsets of the past, of the future and

beyond we will know that the truth

will be found in our language, at the beats and

function of the letters b o r n t o r u n

elbow room, hidden cabs, tenser bandages

fingers that meld with metal and

shine in the sun. midday

sleep, midday fruit. apples

turning into pears. a woman

drips over into the river bed. men pick her

up and walk into town. they

know the future, but leave her any way.

the old grandma doused herself

in sadness and lit the flame, but the

flame was love and she was lit with

happiness! how fun for her. I bet she was

feeling great. if there was

a camera watching, it would

show her smiling and jumping even though

her bones were bad and couldn’t really jump.
