Pouches of daylight
on the slithering fence top
cones of shovel blades
spilling dirt blood's crushed seeds
through a net of fallen flagpoles
straps of fake fur
in the creases of an ancient brow
rock shoulders pinpricked with beads of oil
crane hands mashing wood colored putty
eyelashes chomping abdominal wound
to catch a rain of boulders.
A canopy of porticos
for the open-mouthed house
embedded in the thick hillside
light bulbs muffled in pine
where the waterfall's footrest breaks
and shoots cracks through the guardrail
of a palpitated road
a doorframe in the railway
pepper edging these pillars of salt.

Chrome knobs twitching on a fortress wall
of wigs that rode a mannequin's stare
limbs melting in a stadium teacup
these ascending reefs.
Embroidery of steel shielded glass
letting light touch a sheaf of paper
trapdoors open animal lids
in the cemetery ceiling
arms trailing shoes under moss
the sparks from a dyed bronze letter.

A statue sewn to a parachute
and the tug of war in the hollow wind.
Ripped cushions that pin whirling quills
to a shaft in the crust of earth.

Chipped lips coating a flying tether
at the end of a fog-lit dream
and the cream in blackness.
Cotton skin on wooden bones
runs across the ice bridge
skanking and flaming
among the running and dripping flags
over eyes of stone
a curb of impacted soil.

Marking bird houses
with charcoal fingernails
kneepads over each breast
the stem of a brush
jabbing at the bulb's womb
fist in a long vase
fireworks from the linkage of the wrist
pouring through the milky way.

Labyrinths of shot-out tar
slate's mica of fake windows
glinting from wall to wall.
Watching the island's moat fill up
around the town square
chiseled granite prodding a clay bulb
tires on string circling a sand box
cream skies wagging a faint gate
to the backwards body
hopping from hill to hill
pine sticks tickling a court side slab
the thorns of a flying vine
that maps the heavens
and chains to hold a rubber seat
as it swings the guts and laughing guise
of a younger world.
Still the scorned sidekick of death
hunkering packs down concrete paths
crooked heels on cracked branches
the tidal rock in a pile of solar rays
ice dribbling fractured ax handles
synthetics flying with a delicate heap
of cooperating metals
fires ticking that have informed cave walls
the shed skin on a chain of rocks
sinking dust to a zone of magma.

Paper sticks holding up a leafy body
fan blades pulsing from a far wall
red foam of bricks in tinsel
coat hanger hooks gesturing
like curled fingers
to a lonely room.

The quills of a creator's fingers
suffering in darkness
escaping heat of long-limbed machines
tapping empty pipes into soil
crushing clay formations
into the vein-led earth,
the prowl of the ocean.

Shades on the light that will not fade
through the cool millions.
Thrower of womb-fond lightning
dressed as his own dancing daughter
in the cemetery of square things
with his equator of oval mouths
singing to tar and feathers.

Strings ripping soil bridges
an orange light from the brown ground
coffee spouts in palpitating rubber concrete
a bronze star fishing through
a shattered walk.

Stairways zig-zagging
on the jolts of a crater's elbow
pine sap from the ruffled ribs
a penetrating chair
that spins in fragrant oil.

A glass sheen on brick walled boxes
and breaking fluorescent cylinders
capped eyes shooting quill teeth
through the roar
of an ancient tunnel.

Rattling wire trails
that enwrap a lunar meteor
a lake of dust from empty bellies
of the folded dead.
A path on the globe's incisor
carving heavens to grass
a perch of stone
on the hurtling mountain
leaving streamers of skin
and bone and blood
a gap between the places
where souls enter
and where they take flight
to dark matter
the super sphere nibbled
by flying particles
dwarfing the hot earth
with indifferent magnitude
cluster on transparent cluster
in ascending chains
to the heart's core
of coalescing gravities
in shifting orbits
a shaft of broken tree length
pointing to the collapsed diamond
in the ribs of a fallen boar
and the substance for eating
and the outer shells colliding
with nothingness into form
with space full
and jungles of plenitude
foaming into plastic
the ancient soul in heels
and headdress
of lactating rubber.

Light drags its feet
over the rippled rooftops
sheets of melted sand
painted iron poles
and rug fibers of
grease-stained stairs
an owl's mask on the face
of a naked man.

Lopped-off tops of pine trees
tangled in lightning-stuck wire
skeletons berserk for hot bulbs
yanking veils across a crescent moon.
A gash in the earth
that oozes paper grids
through a clearing of grey animal jelly.
Ax head landing on the target skull
prepared with wax
the forks of a thriving tree
driven up from a rotting belly
and its web of seeds.

Eggshell lanterns
the rust of long steel bones
a hilltop's bleeding paint can pyramid
cracking toothy lids.

Dealt into the woods
tired eyes on wings
crawling ripples of bark
crashing trunks
and twanging branches
the fluttering of names
rubber rings of banging doors
the curve of an observatory window
ten fingers on the latch
blood under glass hands
the replication
in the loop of the needle
a stone-wheeled bicycle
rolling home alone.
The parade in the door frame
snarling mouths and vacuum hoses
stuck doors on cloth
waiting for the oil,
cherries unmoored from life
glimmering to the hilt
a shore drawn and shaded
with lines of visitation
that flicker from
a swamp of ink.

Let the fingered head
lie in its heap of blossoms
discovering five legged tigers,
a plow horse leaning on
the glacier's wall of salt
left for remembrance.

Let the shelter of doves
touch its veins for sweet submersion
in this ceremony to take
out the trash.
Blunted girders stretching hot glass
over a canopy of earth-fangs and clenched hands
benches built on iron heels
godlike form curled up on slats
broken by warped measurement.

Eyes drinking the expanse of assaulted space
foam tongues gathering
like starfish in an open hand.
Piano hammers tapping a stern jaw
to rubbery hysteria.
A cobra's mouth dripping oil and milk
into a cup of blood.

Feathers in mercury that core
a spinning apple
the reading of prismatic corners
by a skidding beam of light.

A platform of ice
deformed by sunlight.
Spindly crucifix body
spine glued to an icicle.
A screaming long-toothed mouth
buffeting concrete.

Steamroller's glass cylinder
portraying cut hands.
Thin white walls flaking
on the continent.
A tunnel that meets
the underside of a drum.
Winking fiber optic lava
in the halls of earth.

Sanctuaries of cornstalk walls
naked in grey pits of water
rain cracking the high leaves
in the quaking outskirts.

Severed tendons
that gush like reproduction
against a bulletproof sky.

Wednesday, December 12, 2018

Spires of domes
from breaking seeds
with tongues of reflecting knives,
channels carved in bulbous hinges,
a circle of high-backed chairs
clawed feet sinking
in soot-streaked clay.

Ball-shaped bricks
in the action of cellular mud,
threads of gum
following thick-veined eyes,
a cushion of compacted grass
biffed open by a rain
of skulls.

A solitary toilet by the river's
hammering roar, a frozen tent
of printed paper resting
on electric twigs.

Boughs of ant limbs
gelled together with spiked fingernails
hives of knotted silk
dragging a glass panel
to a purple wash cord
wooden cushions for painted people
knobs and pinholes on a high wall
log cabins rolling in water
the laughing symmetry of sky bones
crashing the barrier's heart
stalks bending boxes aloft
concrete blocks trailing blossoms
pushing thorns and needles
to the steaming hay
fevers in antenna
old stereo holes dilating on mud
the legs of loving chairs
for the bent god
pressing copper and lint control buttons
gathered sighs and whimpers
through a pink hoop of screams
the recorded hereafter.

A web of clouds
with clinging bones
a sidewalk cut away from Earth
on a pyramid of soil.

Trails of brown fur
speckled with miniature red leaves
shot-out eyes in the evening.
Trunks unfolding bark
that clenches walnut teeth
berries popping on a collarbone
the scissor's mindscape
of armpit portals.

Windows cracked by a flying
horizontal door
a sail torn off in
creaking hinges.
Pools of aging money
sinking to a concrete court
a jump rope's bags of blood
to blur the ever turning mouth
tongue's hearth and couch
cut lips rolling mint in lavender.
A path of thrown-out roses
rotting into scum green footprints
slim nakedness slapping painted metal.

Perms of frosted glass
winking in a window of tar.
Fire hydrants chugging
under the cemetery arch
on gloved hands.

Squares lighting up
through the fissures
of a punctured heel.
Tiger's flank calling
to bamboo string pick
beneath the spray of nails.
Bedpost's core among
the snaking branches
each cat of nine tails
trailing bulbs and curtains.

A visor at a cave's lip
meeting the brow's one horn
this galloping prism
swinging melodious irons
dripping a stack of cards.

They burn me down to a cold eye
lingering in the ground.
Trees come up on pulleys and wires
bushes painting roots
infertile mountains of thought.

Pregnancies of thorn earth
crumbling heaps of sound.
Peak lips on the points
of tapering leaves.

The bars of the cage
turned to bananas.
Sodden cries from the corner basement
pushing nets of lamb's heart
scales of a curving cliff
swinging chains of caked feathers.

Friday, December 07, 2018

Chopped rocks on the roof
beads of lopsided rain
oozing from cracked threads
beneath the diamond pattern.

A steamed eye
burning through its casing,
mane of clumped trousers
powdering the glass wind.

Limbs of trapped water still beating
in the curves of eruption.
Seeds following the hollow frame
of a metallic button
nailing the fringes of flying walls
to ancient brick.

Sand storms under the thudding cavern
of a plastic dome.
Light tugging ropes of rubber
over the tangled veins onscreen.
Palm-prints in butter
a mop's head on the moon reflection
marble yard's wedge
of linoleum cheese.

Monday, December 03, 2018

A trail of peaks for flying feet
trunk rippled by the stripped air
ice trail to ice trail
skidding cliff side edges
spikes in the earth and a smoking hand
wood frames on the zone's glass eye
carved by metallic fingernails
dropping whacked-off pulleys
to a bed of stones.

Sunday, December 02, 2018

Slashed rubber gasping
in the tight flanks of trees
strings dangling from bent teeth
clay bodies' landscape of amps
pouring concrete canals
walls of water with
swimming snakes of paint
rushing newspaper shores
crushing ecstatic stalks
diagonal branches
slithering grey air
cracking blue eggs
against punctured nests
a mouth at the tip of a tongue
with a tongue of its own
dabbing from the eyes
spray painted in napalm
rolling red carpets
to the shattered moon
sleds of carved-out salt
riding velvet lightning
through the rings of gas giants
to an ocean heart
cloth tapestry of jaw bone hinges unfurled
star's path in a web of steam
piercing compost heaps.

Saturday, December 01, 2018

Slamming ten ton dice
into the brain pan
parted lips of the cooing skull,
highways flowing on the headboard
where the bed burns
like a wrapped chunk of leaves,
spitting sleeves and rotten underthings.

A falling line stitched into the hills,
sending pedestrians with burnt beaks
soaked to the spine in petroleum.

Spring follicles that pitchfork
sound and space
with a fever of running water.

Rugs lapping brick walls
from the power of laundry cords
stretched between towers
that make the land ache
a vast forehead spewing cabinets
whose doors pour out the painted china
designed with a sacred smirk.

Paved paper from the lava pump
running engines over letters.
