Father, I killed my monkey
I let it out to
taste the sweet of spring
wonder if I will wander out
test my tether to
see if I’m still free
from you
steady as it comes
right down
to you’
I’ve said it all
so maybe we’re a Bliss
of another kind
lately, I’m in the circuitry
what it means to be
made of you but not enough for you
and I wonder if
you can bilocate is that
what I taste
your supernova juice
you know it’s true I’m part of you
steady as it comes
right down to you
I’ve said it all
so maybe you’re a 4 horse engine
with a power drive
a hot kachina who wants into mine
take it with your terracide
we’re a Bliss
of another kind
dropped of the edge again down in Juárez
”don’t even bat an eye
if the eagle cries” the rasta man says, just cause the desert likes
young girls flesh and
no angel came.
I don’t think you even know
what you think you just said
so go on spill your seed
shake your gun to rasta man’s head
and the desert – she must be blessed and
no angel came.
there’s time to keep it up
a time to keep it in
the indian is told
the cowboy is his friend
you know that I can breathe
even when I cheat
should, should’ve been over for me
no angel came.
clouds descencing I’m not policing what you think and dream I run into your thought from across the room just another trick can I weather this I’ve got a fever above my waist you got a squeeze box on your knee I know the truth is between the 1st and the 40th drink concertina concertina a chill that bends this I swear you’re the fiercest calm I’ve been in concertina concertina try infrared this I swear you’re the fiercest calm I’ve been in the soul-quake happened here in a glass world particle by particle she slowly changes she likes hanging chinese paper cuts just another fix can I weather this I got my fuzz all tipped to play I got a dub on your landscape then there’s your policy of trancing the sauce without the blame too far too far too far could all get way too cheerful concertina I know the truth lies between the 1st and the 40th drink clouds

I took a taxi from LA to Venus
in 1985 I was electromagnetically sucked
back into a party going on that night
it was the glory of the 80’s
with karma drawn in up lines
and two bugle bo models saying ’baby,
it’s a freebee you sure look deprived’
I had the story of O in my bucket seat
of my wanna be Mustang
auditioning for reptiles in their
Raquel Welsh campaign
in the glories of the 80’s
you said ”I’m not afraid to die”
I said I don’t find that remotely
funny even on this space cake high
and then when it all seemed clear
just then you go and disappear
silicone perty barbies to the left and
Joan of Arcs to the right
no one feeling insecure we were
all gorge and famous in our last lives
in the glories of the 80’s you said
’the end is nothing to fear’ I said
blow the end – nowbaby
who fo I gotta shag to get outta here
and then when it all seemed clear
just then you go and disappear
sure you’re out there orbiting around
wish I had you back now
I met a drag king called venus
she had a velvet hologram she said
’my husband ran off with my
shaman but they love me as I am’
in the glories of the 80’s you said
I may not have to die
I’ll clone myself
like that blonde chick
that sings Bette Davis Eyes
and then when it all seemed clear

hey you gender nectar sifting through the grain of gold
tripping at your door is that you. alpha in her blood
and when the woman lies you don’t believe her
rolling and unrolling coiling emerging running free
running through the underworld into your room
is he real or a ghost-lie she feels she isn’t heard
and the veil tears and rages till her voices are
remembered and his secrets can be told
hey you gender nectar crystalline from the vine
you know you’ll drink her rolling and unrolling
coiling emerging running free running through
the afterworld into your room so she prays
for a prankster and lust in the marriage bed
and he waits till she can give and he
waits and he waits
suede. you always felt like suede. there are days I feel your twin.
peekaboo. hiding underneath your skin. jets. are rewing yes rewing
from a central source and this. has power over me. not because you feel
something or don’t feel something for me but because. mess. so big. it can swallow swallow
her whole star intact. call me ’evil’ call me ’tide is on
your side’ anything that you want. everybody knows you can conjure
anything by the dark of the moon. boy. and if you keep your silence
silencer on you’ll talk yourself right into a job. out of a hole. into my
bayou. i’m sure that you’ve been briefed my absorption lines. they are frayed
and I fear. my fear is greater than my faith but I walk. the missionary way.
you always felt like suede. there are days I am your twin. peekaboo.
hiding underneath your skin. jets. are rewing yes rewing from an ether
twist. call me ’evil’. little sister. I guess i’d do the same. little sister. you’ll forgive me one day.
in an army’s strength therein
lies the denouement. From
here you’re haunting me. By
the Seine so beautiful. only
not to be of use – impossible.
so strange. victory – 1.200
spires. the only sound.
Moscow burning. Empty like
the Tuileries. Like a dream
Vienna seems. only not to be
of use-impossible.
In the last extremity – to
advance or not to advance – I
hear you laughing.
even still you’re calling me
”not tonight, not tonight,
you know what you know so you go break the terror of the urban spell
this alliance you say ’I’m on the threshold of greatness girl’
so you burn your pagoda through the cungo till there’s a broken bond
on the birth of the search white trash my native son
it will all find its way in time
blossom, riot poof
you know what you know so you go chain her to your flow
she bites through your dried lean meat as she’s going to the movie show
in a bath of glitter and a tiny shiver she crawls through your java sea
black sahara I’m stepping in to you space oddity
it will all find its way in time
blossom, riot poof

well I know it’s just a spring haze
but I don’t much like the look of it
and if omens are a god send like men
breezing in
certain these clouds go somewhere
in a single engine cessna
you say we’ll never make it there
so all we do is circle it
uh oh. let go. off on my way
unseen this eternal wanting
let go. way to go so I get creamed
waiting on Sunday to drown
waiting on sunday to drown
and I know it’s just a spring haze
but I don’t much like the look of it
but all we do is circle it
and I found out where my edge is
and it bleeds into where you resist
and my only way out is to go
so far in
billowing out to somewhere
billowing out luna riviera
waiting on Sunday to land
waiting on Sunday to drown
why. does. it. always end up like this
waiting on Sunday so I get creamed
waiting for Sunday to drown
these tears I’ve cried. I’ve cried 1000 oceans
and if it seems I’m. floating. in the darkness
well. I can’t believe that I would keep. keep you from flying.
and I would cry 1000 more if that’s what it takes
to sail you home
sail you home. sail you home.
I’m aware what the rules are. but you know that I
will run. you know that I will follow you.
over silbury hill through the solar field. you know that I will follow you
and I find you. will you. still remember
playing at trains. or does this little blue ball
just fade away. over silbury hill through the solar field.
you know that I will follow you.
I’m aware what the rules are but you know that I
will run. you know that I will follow you.
these tears I’ve cried. I’ve cried. 1000 oceans
and if it seems I’m. floating. in the darkness
well. I can’t believe that I would keep. keep you from flying.
so I will cry 1000 more if that’s what it takes
to sail you home
sail you home. sail. sail you home
