Blue Post-It Note all of this brings me the emotion of sadness/that was a story of a lifetime gone.the fishnet underneath him/exploding from a lack of pressure.all he wants is shoo-fly pie/why he flinches from loud emanations.another golden spoon for the king's chocolate/the crumbs gathered in a spicy ball.fire to the pliant leaves/another tear.one more drop of blood/flowers on the counter.soiled hands in a desert/the classic Kool Aid.one last emperor staring down/the next layer of blue paper.from my silent heart/a slash into the poemed breath.a nancy or a savior/there was ginger in her oxygen.the final falling soldier/a rhythm played out in passwords.sacrifices for the materialistic/feeding, feeding feast.funnel sugar to the ears//

red is the color of the messenger || and I won't shoot him down
.....red high-top All-Star sneaks in the magical land of Haja with tall green trees
|| why was he called red riffur? || Clifford, Clifford, the big red dog, evil versus good || heart thumps, feels pulse pressing against every fiber of being in the body || red pencil with soft lead || the red of warning and danger and stop would you ||  and blood of red of answers marked wrong || and corrections of red rum redrum|murder || red of signals and fire and that is hot like caliente || hot red hot devil of Hell and Sun || the red wine stream runs no water but true blood || and strawberries taste good || red is to orange as blue is to green || red of the irritated pimple and sunburn

pain pain pain

the place I visit when I dream, the place that begins to form as I lightly doze off... ||
marked autumn 02... brown, blood-covered
