twenty-five cats and four poems

it is meant there is whimsy, i suppose

all in a woe

the world is a spare thing

no, not the world, place

a place is a sparing

a show of stochasm

that i have lived i can take that walk

or is it the walking the living

but Sebald walked a lot and died at 53

i could be wrong

see?

then the page went blank

mirror

i am wrong

see?

the avoids

in a surrounding

patella nostril

could be a thing

yes, a sing

then what—walk on?

 

 

a brown paper bag

 

mess of crease in caress incontumely as get out

troppic of unknowns untap a nest at the behind

i know this one guy he sat with his back to the wall the one i mean

whaddaya know

they don’t build statues for that

they add a t in there for when you need to not be listened to

 

 

a barnyard

 

bell jure by the sighed of it

bray, intralocutor, whorn are yow

the rafture on the downcomb, the braille of strawn

miser the mazery the cudged curtain of lid

spray you esnough, espair, glutting scarrifics

gries in the mourntains, pining moths

the speak’s got its flutter, its fluster

the din in feather, the rundry hobble

there’s the scalpely end in scapula

the sweated cleaver’s whisper, doom beaconess

 

a tremor

 

shaky hands with the universe the uni-re-verse cuz that’s what             / bow da

these iterations por or pre tendril am i the octopus or the squeezed     / zzle fletch

who’s vamping whom when or whence i can’t just stand hence         / y flingt of a

  • The last piece is actually two pieces meant to share a page and separated by a diagonal line (hence the slashes); “a ray of sunlight” is the title of the one to the right of the slashes; the confusion is all mine (as anyone might guess 🙂 )
