Starry eyed (1991)

                                starry eyed

mimosa, obscure reference flower,

fresh sea of air near trippers dissipated

gassed at berkley, felt straddled by world architecture,

could dream past el trio destructo-harmonico,

patch phases, perch watermazes, spin putrid gazes,

disavow light howls, hold the wrists of deaf parakeets.

                                  one day the chalk screeches Odysseus.

benign the fate of dim illuminati

better eschew pasta the melting plate

fork the plumcloud, spaz a pagan strum, know

your sister was bent on a sound

straight hammering kansas, drape paper on intent,

chase ponds if ducks seem float bemused

                               sport be numb, a craze planting a trace

 what once was carved-n-chaste

curled into stuffs oxidized from pride

we hack people circuits, an ax to the thorax of hypocrisy

blown purple hearts foretell a future

spent sans dough----------teeth rot the rent, not

to understand but to delight

                                             the Eye soars

post aprophidisiac under good water tuned to match

artemis or diana or a mimosa if it had entrails,

not dental floss for neanderthals

with fennel seed flavored gum on the boots,

infidel waits to shine the burned sidewalk shoe

in a trance uttered to a flag

in classroom's morningchild miracle genius

i swore allegiance mine sweet land

of poverty poetry rhyme,

meme most of my mesa


                 



     1991 San Fran, CA
