IDIOT
KING
“JOHN LENNON'S NO REPLY”
I think I understand this nuance
That chauffeurs her polarity.
I am the Hurricane, William's Tempest
In all its bastard zealotry, bluest
Bolts screamed as a German diatribe
in search of a lightning rod.
But her poetry is glacier,
Mammoth bending erosion,
Carving valleys, trimming
Continents, emasculating
Mountains with a millennium
Breath.
My poetry wars with Time,
Her poetry deceives it.

“BAD GIRLS”
Big fat tome in my car
Couldn't handle the heat and submits
Powdered exit not enough
Throwing 'Thank You's' like fountain pity-pence
Best thing is I ain't really bothered
Release-Release! See ya, wouldn't wanna be ya!
KA-TA, TA-KA, KA-TA...
Chamber door rapping:
“grab your shit, we're going for a ride”
Garbo-garb fit for the sport
Ambitiouz Eyez & pocketful of Hail Mary's
Black-tongued Master Fiend prowls in ultra-dark
Leash is off this last night on Earth
Runner Bando, dap welfare
Anecdotes fantastic so far
My sledgehammer vogue
Take the smile & shoot
BANG. BANG. BANG.
UFO Blue
Abduction Again
Imminent Fangs
I-Think-
I-Know-
What-Is-
About-To-
C O N T A C T
familiar feeling
but more familiar
than last time
making last time
not last time but
this time actually
first time ever
Must've been doing something or
Other before I decided to take a
Seat & start playing 'cat games'
Magic words are traps that cut
Little chains in the breast box
And yours was the best one so far:
“Dada.”
Brilliant stuff. Truly terrific.
Turn down excitement, the viper-vein
Buddha breaths + mantra mind
Get the rogue eyelash outta here
So we can continue our foxhunt
The close encounter born too late
Morrow priority executes evening
Nose twitch picking up currents
Aux baton handoff emit positive charge
I think I wrote you into existence.
Just like last time? It wasn’t like last time?
Better than last time? When was last time?
I think I've been writing about you all year.
tenet alpha is mystery, gospel of unexpected, just waiting in the next, staring at me, out of reach, mai 68 didn't go far enough, us do opposite, forbidding forbid forbidden, allowing allow allowed, duchamp paint orgasm, situationist situation-ship, lunch-time wandering, destroyer dérive,
…Some Thing Happening…
…Some Thing Happened…
I need you Night Queen
I need your Past like a bullet in my back
I need your Blood running from my nose
I want to blow up the World with you
I'm Bizarro, reverse of the S but bloody blue
& you are Malevolence
The bright-eyed eclipse with a poison kiss
The Black Ram rises,
To break a zodiac status quo,
Primed to reave, to savage,
Horns & hooves on display
I'm not ready but I don't care
The music is just too good
:You own my attention:
:Spitfire corrodes even the invisible:
:Red laughter inaugurating Planet Nightmare:
‘EARTH INFERNO’ IS MY GIFT TO YOU.

“OBSCURE MOVEMENTS”
I can see her sitting next to me:
Folded legs, paws on my knee marking
Some archaic pattern, cargo-colored mascara,
Heartbeats heard through the headboard, fingertips
Black & blue become raven wing beckoning, glance
Romance antithesis to entourage but love freer than ever,
Smoke secret absurd blown from her teeth
Into my ear, you don’t know how bad I want you,
Skeleton smiling feline dead or alive
So nobody cares in the twilight together,
Lady brain staggering hits my world from a different
Angle, it’s all so excellent, mama Mary make this
Work, let us stay tonight, build a brand new
Alien bohemia, no baggage, no bad traditions,
Desperate for a freedom I can kiss, just us in
A jockey for some music, tourist trap parrots
Dressed with all the best flavors, asylum sane but
The card ain’t gone to stuff the ceremony,
Everything’s a rebel on the morning railroad, where
Salesmen & rhythm boys meet for Napoleonic song,
We watch from the knoll as the moon sets upon
The iron range, all fear & stagnation gone with the dust.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
​
“ATOMIC SECRETS”
Bred from the Broadway guys, I’m almost unreal
Enough for your boots & suede, every altered lyric
Shared is a straight shot to sunset housing complexes,
My heart is a gambling trunk packed with inside jokes
& all the planets you’ve never heard of, a record blamed
For all the days off in our Lord’s grand fix.
Keep an eye on any wrong thoughts given away that could
Muddy the cadence, spinning morals hunger in my daydream
4th dimension, time-traveling almighty traitor with a foreign
Name tattooed on these lips, the purpose shallow almost
Sufficient for earning the title of ‘Citizen Thousand’.
They’ve cordoned our societal pus pimple: where the chase isn’t
Fog but death in heels is a graduation requirement, we achieve
An anthemic quality in the duet of campfire stories, a language
Performance that spews western answers at the best prophets.
Students must be better than the teachers, must be more
Than the ‘Event’, wielding naked pencils to
Expect-Man-Respect-Understand.
​
You can tune anything with a Jesus ticket:
Stone goods at the arena artistic or
​
Shape-changers decorated in articulated possession.
It’s dusk now, my hand in yours as we pass
Along the general essence, exchanging daedal
Pick-up lines after each kiss:
“Animal my soul.”
“Turn me cigarette.”
There are two phrases I hide behind
My ears that keep me an honest rebel:
All music is protest.
A Genius makes their own rules.
Hopeless passivity has no room & board
In our Olympian ways, and every cloud
Continues towards the afternoon empire.

​
“VERNICHTUNG”
My nightmares directed by Riefenstahl, an elaborate
Display of psychological torture, the novels we read
In junior high do no justice, Armaghetto is merely a
Despair you can catch, a weaponized holocaust virus,
Everyone’s a Judas, a Cain, a Lilith, all on their way,
The Kommandos, the Einsatzgruppen, always crawling
& mud is thick in this deep maroon, please
Send bread, there’s already so much blood,
False air arrests my exhale, the corpse-wall is tightening,
I’m praying to you, Jolanta, get me out of these Pollock
Paintings, Shadow Nymph played predicted faces:
The She-Wolf, the Troubled Queen, the Lady Lucifer,
God has abandoned this glass to a muffled suffocation,
Lost contact completely, where are you, Jolanta?
I need revelation through all the Night & Fog, so hear
My howling, the mystic SOS-
“namu amida butsu”
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
​
“TAROT XVI”
It's Day 121.
God is looking at
The chateau citadel.
He's not blinking.
​
Four bastards inside think it's an Airbnb.
They've cooked up a party-barn central power,
Dug a pit in the courtyard for all those
Poor kids eaten at lunch.
Plutus ignores their tribute
So he can recite his lines:
“Pape Satan, Pape Satan, Aleppe!”
Man downstairs takes an express from above
Armed with a legion of blank-eyed black racers,
Rigging the raffle to defy stereotypes.
​
Chariots ride the lightning uninvited
As the libertines shit themselves silly.
Law must be broken before it can be restored,
And they forgot about Yahweh's handbook
So he parks his police cruiser just to watch
The gold going goose off the balcony.
​
The Wild One wears Dylan over his eyes,
Whistling a charcoal classic from the
Viceroy microphone:
“ALLO GRANDFATHERS!
DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO
RIFF ON A TRIUMPH THUNDERBIRD?
LOOK AT THE JACKS ALL KEEN & CUTE!
YOU'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THE CRAZY!
PISTOL POLARITY GOES BOTH WAYS!
I'M JUST SMILING, PEE-PAW!
SCAT AIN'T FOR SQUARES SO
DIG THE REBOP AND CRASH!
LET OL' SCORPIO GLEEP YOUR SHEKELS!
DO YOU REALLY WANT SOME FLOWERS?
WE'RE ALL CRACKED ON THE CHRISTMAS TREE,
NO ONE’S NEEDLING THIS JOINT ANYTIME SOON!”
The old men stain their robes again.
Beelzebub biker-blues turn the aristocrats
To pavement-paint, one after another.
​
The manuscript is finished.
There is no return to Paris.
Laughter emerges from the pit.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“HERE BUT FOR DREAMING”
​
It's the end of the Revolution.
& I'm back where I started.
Standing in the maw.
& praying to you.
“technique is just the means of arriving at a statement”
Becoming a MacBriare in search of a Kiera-
“Someday I'll find her
And I'm still reminded
Maybe she's best in dreams
She's still the best I've seen”
typical busted domestic seduction, rockaway crew rolling deep in
roast beef, spending time on my hobbies & interests, don't mess with
magic little witches, thank you Navajo nation for our bangin good
time, waiting for dinner to be delivered, no need to leave the house
today, crazy cowgirl & the lizard hands, yes my sweet baby, dreams
do come true, a new mix in honor of the never-ending Venus
retrograde, sabotage the collection to improvise our frightening finale!
Each person needs love.
We seek love in all
Parts of the world,
But we never
Seem to find it.
Love is within us.
Love is within our heart.
Show me the Lovers, that card torn in two
Show me the Exit, a smile sharp & blue
Might as well oil the road for Zimmy & his Barefoot Madonna
“there is no accident, just as there is no beginning and no end”
God is a painter.
My life is a fractal napping.
& all is right in the world.
