one. task search & instress
suicide owl to movement
of a skyline a tress
towards raincoat.
was my favourite aura
of a no time. step from the suitcase o
incantatory snowdrops
two. scissored by rote. gleamingly darkless
glues.
i learn to cultivate
curfew lure
in those impacted
angel curse. if i explain
the experience it’s as one
brain inside itself doors rattling,
three. how did him get to owe a majesty
mysterious evenings nor
coincidentally daybreak. if i got that
dream & never unsuspecting
beneath walls hat squad a squawk cd & pillows.
four. adverse collaboration
hammer friendship. the years slewed sloothering
cross twisted
found
ations therefore the struc
ture warning warning
balloon. police medick.
freak freak. soft
a minuscule cut to her
brow
five. going outwhere now.
sequence of vents.
& faraway eyes. chewing gum.
signature up in on clouds
lain on a bed & the cold
cones &. apotheosis
start to stop.
