Speak Not Its Name



Deathly struggle with emptiness
and beauty creates passage
time assumes allumes devolves
ascends ascends ascends - breaks
breaks apart
bends -/ kisses floor
of shore
no more flying fish de lac —
as door to red room opens opens
things fall, things fall apart,
warnings were posted.

The eye the eye
to the third forth fifth thing
sprung from rhythms,
saturn's rings
bad as glad. The inquest.

Queens of underwhirleds
tuck in halvsies —
Hades abduction, Persophones corruption.
Half in half out
waiting for ghost.

And at Hamlets post
retains remains pertains -
watching for the undead 
to mount again.

How body cranes in mudflow,
crawls at rim
falls at crack —
where sparks pummel against
a tunnel of love
and dance in chase
of holy paste.

The migrant shallows
defiant —
grumble for a tumble,
grease my tree
speak not its name,
longing to be free of me.

At odds
my waking sod,
of every little riddle in the middle,
sleet desperate affection —
how can it be,
so rim-bow evil?

Be free defiant eye
its flying,
its dying,
its crying.

Daze and phase all right
the maze. A slave at races
for ports of call.

The dove that loves
petting noses with the ponies
as a movement toward truth —
as if life is about to begin again.

The cross to climb
the limb of rhyme
is a projection of faith
to wheel to kneel
and heel heel heel
by dickering up the clock,
in gusts
of dog's age lusts. 

Letting go,
no holds bar.
Sings for freedoms in bursts.

After another rain of redly deadly
flute and flame —
sanity is bold
resigned to the curse.

The caw caw sinks
into deciphering
mathematical mismaking
dreaming in unforgettable forgeries —
steal steal,
my evil economy.

The eye
the eye knows its a crime
to sink and surface
so low
crash and crow —
goads free as the sea.

Break down always a door,
for  more —
that miracle of  escape
waves and graves
of sudden anxious contempt
where spirals form the undead.

Blood, blows
woos and woes
its pleasure trap
walking in tongues
hides in seek
and over runs.
