Grain of breath




Holding the world 
The world 
The ash 
And the heavens 
Diamond black 
Rheum and horned
(Say it in French)
Little boy's breath 
In deeps of dream 
Whatever's left 
Pales and buckets 
Reims of brownian 
Carbon jerks 
Like withdrawal 
Bonding seizure 
Convert ethanol epilepsy 
Go on I duff ya 
Feels like jelly tots
Shattering glass 
Look my nipple 
Is a shotgun 
Blasting pheasants 
For a laugh
Hail of lead at crawk of dawn
Deep abscesses 
Run with gravy 
Cooked for princes 
Princes mindst you 
Only princes shoot to scoff
There's an elephant 
In my baby 
A runcible moon
On ferruginous wharf 
Rattling spoons 
Sabre practice 
For the rabid 
Dancing forklifts 
In wet glitter 
Like a rainbow 
Spraying roe deer 
With a handcuff 
In the mist

I have seen these rings 
Incorrigible 
Insignia fati 
I have sucked them
To my breast 
Kissing polish from the conker 
In remembrance and respect 
She was once 
A leavened warrior 
Wicker raven 
Bent and coughing
At your whim 
at your behest
Deferential 
obsequious 
doffing 
In the flagrance of your jest..

2018.
