dogs and cats

1.


dogs and cats meow in the hungry of earth
night and day sing a broken face over past present
(bowels turn place turn tail in the geologies of among
repeal is insouciant we are ornamented)
tormented like the sun by waste repeat ‘makes’ its day desert
the quick night its letters flowing back a dearth
of objects makes the petit objet ‘a’ less than its sign a hurt
never ending infinite refinite analysis in the machine of desire
cut cut cut I Cut Eye Cut
‘the rhyme’ an ‘eye’ starin’ back the alveolus of castration
its bent neck humbled over shoulder and head content
to demand space its sense between spoken and not spoken
spooken by the ghost of a highway song
highway man robed in his resent
the recent past of hatred and its civilization repent
before night and day speaks wrath its old giant
whore less than and more in the pleat of hysteria impelling space
no ghost in the prelude becomes you a millionaire phantom of happiness
dreary of discontent and murder

sonnet of play and death harbingers the cyclones of time the word
slipping (lapsing slippage)
its mouth twisted at the table roped ripped across the bodice
its fine lace thing undertints shape yesterday zero content
broken
of its understanding narrowing the ampersand of the notion
one man was good and the other bad
making the flit waves back
bolder than it was
wickeder
pliant as the share that stood Gabriel’s gun
dizzy with the alcohol of memory and gin
a food making its way through the vessels of the body

comment the unconscious machines of desire

maladroit Mona took a spill
a picket line of kinaesthesia
her solution and so many others many bottled medicine for the soul

savours makes dense the existential wound
death by one’s own is hand is deferred but preferred
a fancy space gives the seaside girl swivel sown swoon
ocean
one-half desire engines force plateaus work woof woof
wolf-man in the crowding
Orpheus muddled the Antioedipus
in its extended self

rhizome buckets
words like sin junked
nothing left but desire
paradise desire
