58 (shapeshifter)

it’s high
almost too comfortable
easily holds around 20
tho i’ve never had occurrence to see 
more than 20-40 from 
there out
imagine the super stars like S. Column
must attract them
etc.
the location is a little known
street
on the edges of a slope
its shape constantly 
shifting
looking down from white
washed walls
a park
a laboratory for stories
which turns bathed
in light
to violets.


59

un(m)hinter geber high 
digger
onto logical transcendence
or transcendental in dust rial 
production of bodies
derided lecturer/grave robber
gold rag tag subhumans
   “nature mute & suffering”
                             silent suffering
        is “the great sorrow of nature”


60 (PERSONISM)

let others write their biographies
i prefer to live mine
this morning’s start to the poem of my life
now forgotten
the old man i have become &
am becoming
head bent in near-sleep
held up only by the thick air
of this room
the same air that crushes 
me

it would be so interesting to write about 
myself
as seen thru the eyes of the other
though at times i feel i am this other
the emergence of emergence
the essence of who i am &
am not.
