A Word Falls

a word falls a leaf lands on asphalt

parts three an ants body paintings

chewed gum rubbing it off my sole a revving engine

the train gains speed the rpm of steel on steel a bull mounts a cow

a public shower water runs men lather bruit musique record

weightless in space artists wooden models fornicate

the glitter of snow she bring home with her resoled shoes

the blades of grass look like they could cut the moist soft of cunt

satisfied sapphire

blood drips from a stone people from Queens County come to see proof of God

I make flesh from yellow, red, and white mountain flowers

he loved his car he rubbed it everyday he opened its hood

spermatozoa fighting for an egg a deep recess ion

a dog digging for a bone unearths my skull

the rake leaning on the fence refuses to work

crumpled paper a ready-made for the den shelf

crumpled paper has shadows like a rose

after castration what to do chew gum

scalding tar poured then the roller smoothing it the mens hot thoughts

the knockout blow reducing the weightlifter to her will alone

the pistons go up and down in and out oiled contact

cross country skier the earth is like the moon

size matters women say except in planets

green crepe couch a lady bug suns naked as birth

In the S.O.R. the blinds almost drawn the parrot on a perch talks

In the public pool hippopotamus swim smoothly as minnows

It was raining barely squirrels were spitting from trees

she swallows me an alternative to burial
