Two Poems

o father performing yer active duties 24/7 transglobalist wonder of men handy dandy do-no-gooder saintly reciprocal bastard son of hanseatic beasts make my mystery come clean houdini bird of prey cherche la donna stella maris skin on the rocks titanic floods chanting hymns hymen o’clock rock & roll the dice in debt in loving seed weed your pater pride ‘n fams o father burden worker blue faced collar hereditary seigneur tranquil seas fingering slender fruit up above whelming posture Geist give us today naught expecting greater good from me
all these [jazz_]
—for Floris Jespers
i)
assume a city [ assume this one ] a shape thereof, tear into strips [insideout]—one octave urban dust
( genre de ressemblance: that which resembles the case but is not the case )
& behold my suffering [ : agape ]—how what we adore, again takes hold in our adoration
( continue an isopleth : an edge will force it finite in bear clawed closure )
i pray for eloquence, you smear horizons into carboniferous might repeat with a world [ this one ] & then
do the body
ii)
this body remains implicitly free of angularity as when we approached our limits—the black plane likened to a continent
of course there is a sun, slides into the network—a register that makes its mark indeed not a surface withstands
( the lyrical trajectories the super charged expanse )
so i with you :
the stagnant as appearance & all our disintegration collective
