a red negotiation across the better part
red in the sense that the flags from the blood burn barricaded: a
negotiation where words & idiots flit
across shadows like solid things;
the shadows pulsate & the mind ceases to be
better than its sharp strapped circumstantial flux.... &,
part of this depends on shock (vegetative
^^^^^^
the dusty corners of no man’s house
dusty phrases uncertain in their lurked pigeon holes
corners so unfounded, space collapses around them, whispering
of all the postmodern con games;
no not that kind of laffs: only a generic
man’s breakdown. . they were real people! in a ramshackle
house ... where eyes read other eyes
^^^^^^
some nights the moon straight overhead is not far...
nights with screams in the distance: vague decor;
the slapped brutal slang rack gets guarded w. acids;
moon rays shiver the words you were gonna use, & they plummet
straight into that noise vortex like plastic toy soldiers;
“overhead” is so far away that it loops around and
is “underfoot;” near, near and near;
not a single articulation escapes this crying;
far away is the idea of nearness which has melted
^^^^^^
and that was our sweet encounter, our suicide supper, concluded;
that was the way they constructed noise with planks from wordlessness;
was i abandoned inside the loud dream or the sold ruin...
our crass no met dumb glass shattered: the home so constructed,
sweet in desrtion like digital statistics, was the place where i cd.
encounter dark blue fantasy realities, huge leaves covering
our broken-down verbs with singsong shadows; and so
suicide acrobatics were still an option (i even had a handbook!);
supper got cold while i looked for you; colored ink dried grey; etc
concluded: this far from the breaking, the glass has too many edges
