voidful
cold nonebetweens
disabyssing downly
like an inside-out lake dreamt and
forgot

“money
isn’t always
evil,” i cringe and stuff
a bald eagle through the eye of
a needle
As Above
Stars at
Fiesole
Above gold Firenze
A caraffe, olive oil, and bread
Alone
Tables
Vacant and still in patient rows
Between the heavens and
The city of
Dante

Create
Your work with fire –
Fueled by both hate and love –
For yourself, and turn it in by
Friday

Is there any darkness left
Inside the geodes?
Has anything gone unscanned?
gas station
wet fuel
giant scratch-offs
cigarette packs: rainbows
anthropologies of litter
candy
credit
two men cranking old slot machines
arsenals of soda
a beer walk-in
no air

Never’s
Getting jealous
My life lasts forever
(Comparing evers to nevers)
I’m still
Clocking
I stare
At one minute
Becoming a new one
Do you play by your own rules, time?
I glare
I ask
Do you slow when I’m not looking?
And minute on minute
Unblinkingly
Time nods
Origin Story
Be screamed the Lord
What cut the dark
Its thoughts’ knots
Pottered Its esophagus a
Dumb yawning sarcophagus
(Them living tomb
Warm unseen cancers)
Infiniplite in the way
A well vomits brack-
Black waters forth or
Hot rotten birth rings
Worm these diseases
Even before designing teeth
And greed the Lord
Bored the nightness
Clawed for Its image
And tore in the walls
Of the abyss to feel
Its fingernails smart
All in that horrid gasm
Of pandolorous grief
Complete pain brought life as
If pain were older
Than God
Six Flags Over Heaven
God’ll make a mistake
And we’ll eat golden eggs
And we’ll level the world
And we’ll all go to Hell
.
All these Dixie cups
Are the new Holy Grail
There is always enough
There is always enough
.
God’ll remake the world
And we’ll all laugh again
We were always in love
But we’re never enough
