Maggie

Death a glass
Filled with
Doesn’t matter Maggie take
A sip
A breath
A blonde impertinence
I will wait
Luxuriate my precious doll
My manly vision
Ribbons, ribbons

a woman’s worth is a woman’s hurt

her loss for words
Signifies
It forwards

The notion of partnership
Good breeding, Virginity

A Man looks outward

a woman
Is looked upon
Inspected

It is all birthing
Or nothing
I admit I cannot make it out
Propertarian of mind
Deflect, own
Deflected

bells

the sound of death is bells

not the sound of dying, not the process

it's the sound of being 

dead

the sound is bells ringing

unheardly, gorgeous, purposeless 

not a wail or wimper
not from mouths

but bells just bells
the scent the touch the taste

of lifelessness is not

scents, touches, or tastes,

not bells the objects,

not their odors of corrosion, their cracks, their ammonian notes

but the stark felt absence of those

in the stark felt presence of the sound of
death is

are you waiting for
now
is this all about
was it
the fuck
is the meaning of this
will happen

can it be
shall we have
do you want
have i done
would it take
is it
should i do

have you heard
did you say
would you like

on the way to the end
i passed a servant of god
we pretended to not see each other
but then i arrived and felt lonesome
and couldn't go back

--

you're working hard every day
each night you try to sleep by listening to the rush of working hard every day
so you can try to sleep every night

--

moon world forming,
midnight, foaming,
starts to rise.
the heart, grieved, forlorning,
setting,
stoning, with the sun.

The imitations of life are gilded
and surrounded by an armamentarium
of mental ballasts,
advertorials of mind,
medicines and magazines,
and lord, so many photos.
They are icons, and they multiply.
Icons of icons of icons.

I'll stop defining myself.
In the Moorish style, my selfhood
won't be depicted, recursively, in myself,
yet I'll be hiding in plain sight
from you, from me,
in the interlaced patterns
on my temple's walls.

There's an endless story being told,
and the teller is the listener
is the protagonist.
He seems familiar, but I don't know him.
It is late, it is eternal.
I douse the fire, go to sleep,
and dream of nothing.

always, mirror, bruise

Relieved, believe the lie
believe the bored will never
sigh, but rapt and dazzled
always
- remain at your side

Why challenge the ruse
why decipher the trick
take the smoke and
mirror
- as a gentler magic

Hold fast to the joy
that holds fast to you
its grip and spreading
bruise
- are traces of the truth

my baby i love i love the war my love is something to offer you tonight tonight only always only even though as it seems even still in terms of notwithstanding although would rather and knowing that in consideration then whichever with that assumption all told but also it's finally done take anything

i can say i love,
my body my singing blood, você
ten thousand dawns aren't that many
dez mil sóis, one afternoon, a blossom
of gold becomes the sky, becomes
attestation of affection, affection
when you're sitting where i can see you, i can see you
count one canary,
forty-thousand begging stamens,
a million glistening honey pots
as nil, not to be summed
my open throat of adoration, my petal
i see you i see you i see you
i see you
and see you
our joy
our joy is a horn erupting i praise you, i praise you
embrace me heal elevate me, affection
affection affection, carinho carinho carinho

touch me
god
that's heaven
else i am
else-if i’m not
playing in a graveyard
with corpses
no more weakness
no more lack
the truth is

touch me god
must i admit
may i submit
the mind is only dreaming
else i am
always alone
always free

no more weakness, no
more anymore
only men
only love me
just for a bit

big adventure

how? is
it? going
the watcher -
lack of progress -
looks away.
working hard
or hardly working!
at growing old
daily practice
good, and yours?
the smallest death
my big adventure

sup

hey slut
what’s the meaning

of having said that
you like that don’t

you let me know
i’m looking forward
to whom it may

concern another time

then yeah hit me
up for better or
worse i’d reconsider
what are you
into if i were
you that ship has
sailed ok maybe
later

story

open call to
empty note

turns off the living

calm, remote

my god, my father
begat, bespoke

i spat your name

it made me choke

the foiled title
the word unwrote

states: am, becoming

completes the joke

Death is kind; death does not envy; death does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

Death has no fear; it does not worry; death keeps no records of wrongs; never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away.

When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now we see in a mirror, darkly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.

this is golden boy

he was found cold and wet and he was very afraid of people

we took him in and fed him and gave him blankets and lots of reward systems

pretty soon his optimism spread like a virus

and now his smile, color, and height

obliterate dissent in groups

it didn't take him long to learn that life could be good

he is very friendly and kisses everyone

but mostly he loves to eat and play

he remembers nothing of his original state

he no longer even comprehends suffering

thanks to the kind contributions of people like you

virus replicates
deer gives birth
wall is built
by whom

rock was
quasar is
being becomes
purpose applied
by whom
to whom

it's you
are you
you are
then not
not you
but are

"i look fat in this one..." she thought
but what she post
dumb dreaming bitch
phasing in and out of extinction for likes likes likes
do the glitter of her death throes dazzle
baby baby 👶
death death 💀
need 💎
make god rue the day she rested
mad prismatic validates rates wails for attention
#blessed to impress bluelit excess

we are

we are synthesized
and soon realize
that time never gives back

we are created
and then donated
to Living, forcibly
to enduring facticity

we are loaned our selves
and we borrow death
or is it theft
some go to the light,
unbereft
you choose right
i go left

Now isn't the time or treason to say yes or no when maybe is what we need. The joy of sex of gun and bullet, the curiosity, the cunt of it. The pain no gain and disregard. The lack of control smacks of control. Go beyond hello, a casual remark leaves no mark. The abandonment. What would you know, you weigh it up, but can't keep count.


They’ve got a way to fix it
I’ve been hearing great things but
It’s inexplicable and
Cost-prohibitive and
Death-definitive

Do you want to look into it cuz
Your head’s not on right
Can you see that, look
Here, there

Is a thing that’ll help
Ask your doctor
If it's right for you
But it’s less a pill and
More a belief -
More like delusion

Than relief
