helmets and cranes


the blue standard is
often green and yellow
signs are the distances
applied to mountains
by roads and hotels
water understands
the movements
of an old van
differently
nails pass
their materials
through helmets
and cranes
we road minds
expect the pylons
to be any color at all,
nothing can surprise us now

slow stacks






the orange substance
reflects less color than red
and what water shoots through
a hydrant arrives injured

single purpose seaweed
and drugstore sewer gas
mean that no trees are
available at this time

watch out for screws


don't bury my threads in wood
i'm not here to hold one thing
to another
mysteries are not surface freight
my ideas
are a little more quiet
they travel on the
backs of exposed fruit,
in the work of palm seeds
and water with real electricity
not chemistry reactions
that require your cookbook
humility is not an impression

cousins


three of them sitting around a sawhorse
drinking millers and talking about subwoofers
their plywood table trims a counted moon
warm beers are the language equivalent
when channeling the ghosts of old cubicles,
talking about a bowling conference,
eyes missing, mouths with or without words
the low cash count is getting them down
i had notes to the point but the burnt bulb
of a clamp light fell down stairs like
piano keys and i lost them in the clamor

the mind gains


they were friends
in search of periods
no written regards
no thickets at the center
no telling of the time
danger had no room
no passage to the center
often the screen was bright
walls were a distant hill
but the game got traded for grass
powerful books opened and
closed without end, even in the
years they were written

wool-making



still looking for predictions?

we listen for ska in the woods
we give directions for food
we build shadows on
our sponges while the
colors of a thousand minds
color us with their sound minds

you ask me to reserve a seat
as planes lift huge air timber
and tremble overhead

our solution,
reserve nights nearby
so the castle can establish
some construction,
but wool-making is slow

wolves pass priests
gently and wetly,
you nail a list of deeds
to the motel door

we're all groomed and grown,
found small on a swing,
hunting as others pass
when you wish upon a sound
it makes no difference where
your body is found

the girl of legend is a
full band scandal,
you're all on board,
so collect your leaves
and be more obvious

the hunting mind
is always guilty

euclid

mass message . one .
words to distance by
dimes . mainly interest
saying notions made first in
harbours, where units are
the denomination

the space of point is
paper . to singing,
most history is a
guitar, a congruent
space . an express for
lower plane money

wind called large
and people were
difficult reflections .
of state, of physical
feet, this vector was an
institution, time, today,
wires . to arbitrary traders,
distance beyond rules .
people pound economy
systems by translation
itself and love
