ABOUT PAINTERS OVERALLS




 
i
cremated
blue overalls
on consecrated ground

hoping
to find them 
ready & clean & waiting
on a reserved celestial hook

because
i
worry
about
how
naked heaven must be

if we dont even
have our bodies to wear

LIGHTER MOMENT / MOVIE SCENE

 


smiling & swaying
on the bench seat 
in the ambulance box

they both bloom 

surprised by it
& sobered by it
they go with it

& let their lightness free

spinal board 
empty now 
at their feet

BODY HOGAKU DREAM




i
had
a
dream
about
my
anus
being like the opening
of a drawstring bag

puckered loose rim
& a meaty cord
like an umbilical

~

then
am
at a sailing school
&
today is non-jamming hitches

ELECTRIC GHOSTS




with the proverbial
pork chops charring

on the iron 
of the metaphorical skillet

it all becomes clear
how 
it 
has 
all
dungeoned me 
& mazed me

with its turbulence
& electric ghosts

tho the doctor
has fancier words

TWELVE O CLOCK HIGH




time wraps around noon
like a racecar drifting

& i lean into it
into the tip of time

stereo up
windows down
twelve o clock high

~

& the sunlight
round beechcombe

flashes on the wrecks
in the park

that dared once reach 
for a kingdom

& that podium champagne
