the book and the ant 2 versions

she lived in denial though she
could not see it she blamed the
other for her    contempt  the weight
of her probing blustering   alley


    her self aggrandizement to blame the 
other was easier than undoing the denial the river
of her banks swept  with the detritus of her 
self love loathing to admit she was wrong in
wronging another who loved her who 

that was no way to spend christmas or the
fashionable cries of the so called left  its
byre of  burned out histories  left over
mysteries of cry me a hope    pray me utopic
glasses of the long dead song of a rough paid
  glimpse into the past future and the empire's last glance



thus if the shivering came down for her future
was dead in the door down dead as dread its
the contrary to the leap forward in the present
hopping and skipping to the present and the
present its the opposite of the resent

being general she privated her thighs
and armied her cornware


these too  the tales of the huckster
privateers by trade mark their word in the go down
hope and blustered sailor talk not the fuckwise word
and its intent wisecrack. 

Now what was slang compared
to these and the rough wedding of its rift but a slave
to its knowing not the trap of the martyr's eyes nor the
sudden slave of the  heaving waves nor the cutty bend
of the swarming water balked at the sleeves


these have been yours before and after
and the dark knows days have come their darkness the past rolling onward 
                               the book and the insect







though she lived in denial she
could not see it blaming  the other

its rose coloured glasses of the long dead song of a rough paid work

Me : Personally I find it a great strain to write these things that claim to be I bound. I don't like them  or dont enjoy the process . to me they seem false in contrast to fiction....

If I take that piece of , taking the parts or pieces of it and start over inthe third personof the fictions it'll sound much better. That is to say, less ill. I don't better because better does not mean good or gooder.
