J. D. Nelson



teeth in a can

sunnily

ten times the sky today

seven hundred miles
lake to lake

I was great in a bear suit

planets in the air
nowhere

as much as you can today




west of writing

glow
blast the
fraser glass
my mind out
fit fumes to
overlord
me

universal silver
or earth silver?




scissors of zoar

               the room is wider than it is long
your book comes clicking & I feed it clouds
is the wolf a litterbug?

               computer cups
               or batman or hulk cups



Numula

I guess at self-eating

& surf gland
& opera scissors
& sad Folger’s

               the rainbow meat
               with friendship hair
               using a lake

               for a lake

friend aloe
western

huh
