• “opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand”

  Body fresh as a Brennan’s loaf, not yet so yellow though. Burnt off my prints ages ago, Wore driving gloves for extra safety, blurry nights of excess and satiety. I’ve killed them in droves, you know (which you don’t, because I’m a pro) Shoved into holes  Full fleshed some, others ash  But mostly unindexed bones.…

• The Church of the Unnameable Black Mass

  Money layered like a pagoda Honey, layerless, laying in the motor Amphetamine? Got max speed like NASA modems Fast reactions from my bad moulding, cold shoulder a hold up Look down at what he’s holding scoff turn then go Blue anchors, nude in handcuffs Said she’s a news anchor, sunset Turner glow Loves the jewels,…

• Black 47 47 47 47

  The strained fabric keeping society chained started to undo The most lasting work of the first and final Artist fades then splits, unglued The printed page wilts, then decays. What does fun do that force couldn’t? Old and awkward cousins, estranged decades but mates in the manger The squawking crows recognised something was coming, fled…

• Prisoner of chest and skull

  Hours before the wormgetting lot hark to cockrow Or the charge of the larks, early starters darkening the sky One but phone reads real feel minus five, way too early for a fire Divining ways to warmer places, can I somehow make ink sing itself silver Darkened chambers inside writing in an icy room, pallid…

• SBUR

  Always carry a heater Makes things easier These days, likely to get heated A more spiky version of Athena Sometimes, I’ll walk into a meeting bleeding Wincing and leaning, it pools, steaming, until I’m leaving In a sauna on the lower east side and, as kids say, I’m eating Hot in here this evening so…
