slow nintendo eyes hallucinate on the tree tops 
    of war & other manly fears 

fighting basslines back from the castle bulwark 
    the soldier barks playing his 

muse like a hard bleak nest expelling  
    supernatural darkness 

ruins spring up in the suicide forest 
    nestle his falsetto starving 

else blue eyed moneymonkey plays pieces of influence—the man 

that sings off what-will-people-think or 	
    in the pleading

burn hysterical naked singtrade 
    like unwanted pregnancies for strips 

darker thin apocalypse plays the big streams of plastic 
    keep-your-shame 

outside super nintendo 
plays on a drunk’s tokyo 
falsetto harmonydreams 
with much darker musings playfully 
playful play y chill futuristic and tracked 
into oblivion people golden salted with time

“Half-listening is a skill”

rkhm-matte

“Villa Göth Interiör, övervåning”; September 22, 1952; Sune Sundahl

 
 
Half-listening is a skill
Half-listening is a cathedral
    vanitas

Half-listening is a virtue
Half-listening is a viscoelastic 
    polymer 

Half-listening is a delight
Half-listening is a 15x 
    scale model of a tumid vulva
    weighing in at 6,000 lbs.

Half-listening is a suffering
Half-listening is a dire 
    brutalist skull 

Half-listening is a patience
Half-listening is a burnt 
    altar, unattended

Half-listening is a craft
Half-listening is a cathedral 
    nonetheless

One Long Fucking Question for Michael Robbins

What I’ve learned about long walks of course
Was taught by the whiskers of a reservation man
Lashing a horse
Sterile tracts of pale kentucky blue grey shale

Don’t take them
Or take them seldom by mail
Stretching out like a dying dog
between
The pickets and Queen Anne

For a loss
They can’t
Be beat

The beat
Across the lawn
The lawn along the limb
Where does nightfall end
And daybreak crown its gin?
