glish glish agleam
argar merging within / casino of dreams
alz tied to
he    i'm    hers

spin nose adorned
well we ask the litter
genes writ be       A
beginning learned object
trajected columns  (c)on text
graduated but youth  16, 23,
19 tense tortured body
student ravenous
immigrant hatchery
skipped area
invincible proletariat

ahecht ahecht a critic coughs  >  information
trilling trilling trilling like a sterling bird
chambers   witness  experience
cracked carved leaves
borrowed from a vanquished repute
vanned couch askin askin great tooked
movin chandelier 1/2 lit
a vanquished culture
little magazines pethair (c)loner
hand-dated juvenile stew
fool the young girls  don  wit
va(r)se     (ity)    who does?
voce  homme
quiet old eyes  patient  wander
a figure at the edge of the flux &
figurine
dropped the books to the floor
& they remain closed tho one he flaps open
shut open shut
with a whhhhhlop a whhhhhhhhlop
type scripted
all is done with
all is done with
son   nets   sun  nets
on a cloudy day where's the denim
lie?
where's the rest of the chandelier's
glow?
why've we lost the losses?

lift   zeal   left
                              where does the bright go
             when tented by
                                           the storm?

nada
is a look that penetrates me
deeply
free affordable

" i said i'm sorry -   relax -  relax"

            la pintura  devino     a donde  as she pulls the young
   boy's                                                   fingers
                             &  laughs

     go anywhere memory               as you step toward the end

fresh is the better of the whys
tho age tastes the better in the wash.
