SOFTENINGS
~~~~~
ghost wouldn’t dream the angel but to see it naked. wouldn’t dream god but to understand. moth
but to disrobe.
~~~~~
to make is to disappear with something at your side. god is still remembering where places are.
~~~~~
I don’t know how sick
to tell you
he is
–
it could
well be
that violins
put the humming
in the wrist
of god
–
sleep is where
one learns
to faint
~~~~~
I know now how one looks after losing a baby
says the maker
of frog. how to get
mouthwash
to an angel
no…
can we imagine
this, can we imagine
for the scarecrow at the chalkboard
(fossils (I ask
because we are naked
not nearly
enough
I ask because so often
it comes
before child
this word
beaten, to put
our shadows
to bed
~~~~~
hunger has no moon
yet
these noises
are made
the children
of chew toys
whole lives
the sound of god
choking
on a dot
~~~~~
I am looking with wolf for the dream that raised it. I mean, not really. but I do miss you.
wolf or no
~~~~~
is there a path
my mouth
didn’t take
does birth
adopt
the poolside
language
of a signature
absence
is god
a swimmer
a talker
are there
hobby coffins
for nesting
dolls
can we
(kiss
~~~~~
on all fours, I am bad with names. a hound
in the path
of god.
I drink from the same bath
to the angel
muscle
of my mother’s
mouse
(as things
underwater
yea high
hallucinate
