ACCUMULATION BLUES

Eyes across avocado bridge
supermarket's a rustling deadfern
beings too distracted to investigate one another
seek more distraction, select bright things
to place against dull things
make some explosion seed warless air

minutes ago I heaved a car
through a pharmacy window
but I'm still sitting in it.
I'll give birth to a thousand vandal children,
just being here.

Headphones in the bones of my feet
soon so many cameras
will be built into this multicreature
that the world of eyes
will be blind from overlooking

thieves take to public places
crater their privacy deep
through the hungering earth
sleeping bag flower pods
deep in reawakening chaos

Singers in bark, living wood
flickering sapping, running
roots over the edges

shoes of fruit peel, millions gulping coffee
over paths abandoned by pathmakers
the milky way dissolved
down the scorched curve of a potato chip.
