So Sang The Swallow


Aggressive contemplation
A jar full of suspended grace
Don't believe in the garden locked
Here are the real men- waiting
Aware of the murder
The game has no ruler
Keep in mind the thoughtless
Destroy the neutral son
All alone within the setting
Pretending the ache can be swallowed
Fire it destroys the glove
And the car wilts the grass below
The horse watches the water
Bodies are the new numerals
Didn't the police enter through the gate?
No one will press the button
The glass reflects the electronics
So sang the swallow
Tribal rhythm strums the weeds
Alone beneath the sandy bank
Inherited expression left with flower and quartz
The photo will be folded and pressed
Not everyone will agree
Some are born in May
All are thieves
Wings make invaluable music
Clouds bark as boats burn
Electric cinema melts all romance
Grace is corroded by the good
Mud is worn on the faces of scholars
The violinist hanged himself
Spoiled with the ocean breeze in the night
No one believed in the radio waves
Alone the climax was unheard
Drought was garnered by the girl
The strum of the clock was played out twice
Danger
So sang the swallow
Death to the player of the shine
Its a return to the original conception
All doubt is given away for normality
Seeing as the razor is cold the face must be warm
Grey light begins to dance on the nest
Delay all telescope hope
The hearing is set for May
The joints start to hurt when the light is off
Bronze bracelets stolen from an idea
So sang the swallow

THE RIDDLE, THE FLAW, AND THE PUNISHMENT

If I am beautiful am I real? Like the boys on the 24th floor They are beautiful I don't know how to reach them I don't know how they got there Are they real? Are they the small book of poems Left beneath Sebastian's tree A page for each face A sonnet for each precious, beautiful, life of the boys on the 24th floor Each pulling at the others clothes baring chests and thighs some smooth like stone Some coarse with hair like velvet If I am beautiful Do I exist Do these boys on the 24th floor exist? Are they merely the temperature, the weather? The blush across my cheeks? How do I find this hidden floor? Where the bed is a sacred alter Holding those Beautiful fellows Are the words of the bible A book for each? Or merely strains of Liliaceae Showing their holy strength in the force of their stalk and colour They are the beautiful Those boys on the 24th We artist and poets we search for ever And what of us? Are we not beautiful? Are we not real? Why is it we never find the 24th...

The Moon is a Transvestite

The Moon is the greatest of Transvestites She holds the bruises of school bullies Her makeup is better than any lady you will meet Better than my bullish sister Better than the painted prostitutes of media Better than the young men of music The Moon she gets up on stage once a month Puts on her sequinned show Parading and dancing and showing us the theatre or romance and space And then she will slowly draw her blinds Closes her door Allows herself to rest Sitting on her favourite lounge Wearing her favourite satin gown Watching reruns of an old detective show I love The Moon

An Ode To Pain

You just drink to get drunk to dance And you just dance to have a brief taste of myth You don't shave sometimes to feel criminal And when you do you feel exceptionally last century The music you listen to was written by a man with woolly hair His cock was large and his genius was broad He found he could run fast when the rock fences were falling As you found were decidedly slow But the punches and the kicks felt alright Something to write to Frederico about An ode to pain perhaps, an ode to Sadism And where will the return address be? What land, city, bridge? Are you to dwell in the orchard all your life Pissing against the same trees as the other artists? Sleeping on top of the shadows, trying to slow the light Did you ever hear the myth of the Frenchman and the sailor? The Sailor fucked the Frenchman upon a ship that was carrying peaches From America to the port of Lamoux The more they fucked the more peaches were destroyed Until by the time they were hit b...
