"between cup and lip"
post-poet by his ∙ post

of that which only he who
may love the sights

in solemn council fit
rushing from forth a cloud

to the notes of lutes
or comes from the ephors
w/ poisons fraught
w/ name, date, offices

you are exhausted, one slightly more than the other,
but both enough that it will be dangerous to drive,
though it'll be dangerouser, staying here any longer ·
you discuss confusedly between you, whether the more
exhausted should drive, so that the one's that's less can stay him awake,
or if the less exhausted should drive · your opinion
does not prevail and the less exhausted one,
which is you, drives to a mixed and evenly-spaced
spinney, mostly of birch, where you light a pipe · against the midges ·

Bonney and I find ourselves
some alight and learned bones
suck the still wheels at the rail flake more
forget this remember that
the item in my chest will murder me

is a heart mumble, silk tenses,
I love you with a love as frail
as the flaw in your name breath
I say I never loved your bait
say for instance all for want of anal

hi
I think I'm outside
come to the window
the one lit high
in the hill basilica
no the ones with gap
scarves are so simple
it's hardly worth killing them
let us call a lie
"a moth"
(definitions)
(hoof gargoyle)

embroidered with
are threaded full
what zombie said &
a surgeon that told her
come quickly
out of grass, give me bodycoat &
ravens
exemplary apology
ravens

we move west, watched
by anarchists with long wands
end of the baby
purley queen
eagle taught its fragility
into itty-bitty systems
who has guts
to wash a bit of shit from his finger
time I'll dress as disquiet which pursues
till commercials. vital breast
I populate hopeful signs

give me your
ear • Catherine •
a horsefly crossing Sophie’s hard jaw
is irradiated with limerence
and manifests as moths, mouths, grace
ful childs of clit & eye flaw •
but that some cupid greaseball polices
those two guys you took for cruel twirls
I should fuck off with my far fetched weaknesses.
a billion faggots do treason for jewels

muleless, melon, bones’ fidelity to material-specificity-me,
blood fierce to Left or weakly plop to
with the pesto, the one grew with any
his joints to World daughter’s stone boil •
no is our silver cooling
my actually relish ghosts
dry breathe stabilise servile
like stone crypt / sweet fear
one hunted in goes thy cross, saints.  baptize.
its stillness leaves pesto & ground vile window

RIGHT, THY HEART : all is • naught he can’t cope w/ •
Multiply his ice • Global Warmth* t’encompass •

How with one South* atop a precipice

lean crap washed in • home at last •
serf are key, goes ovary, cones, at that
your twat starts • shits on most love,
a sudden shove of ghost tat move good love
that bang your held bind : aye, democracy
and ground two hollow vines together

numbered on that lace come sword-cases dream dream peers
head bone as old servile spice, mislay by there
touching chain droop excess can, kecks lace well • I’ve

how do you do?
check out my fucking face.
you can confide in me, I haven’t dealings w/ saints.  are you in bad health?
I can’t tell & that, in my condition, is the more dangerous.
how long has it had of you its hold had?
it seems an age to me since first I was taken.
have you had the advice of a doctor?
I’ve had the colloquies of a great many!
sometimes it is better to die!  what do they say to your case, is it a dropsy?
they say it is not.  it may be AIDS, but it is a new AIDS if it is.

become lucid, become sick
your guy broke
and I am like • the milk on the broom
cities cry and boots empty
I am
the fruit of capacity.
just kid me, O ballot carapace,
or what could be our bombast,
they are not fit to ring it round :
these idols and kits
 
*
 
"we are image cancer & proliferate"
 
give me hed, clipart shepherdess,
there by our brook of pure pearl.
unless passion brought our eye to boil,
no tear, my ape, shall it shed. so undress.

in the town lives a creature, my breasts –
half bird, half perch, half nest.
on its captured dancednesses,
your sly legs always will be fed.

 
*
 
ballot fat eyes the heart
Lights wildly blooming
buttered heart
Full, small banking
came knitting occult yakult
fringed park developing
tea Lubricate a zipper. Rub
along cookie sheet. / and rub raw
flowers head us off
u lines up to the window
flowers head us off
yet wrongs its kin, and with one
blow

so if I call all you leftists
lollaerds & autists,
all you activists,
vain and deaf,
and the yoghurts you weave
fascism and addiction
and all you feminists
self-haters and man-haters
making cause with rapists
and all you race activists
racists and niggers
and all you anarchists bigots
without trades or true companions
or true compunctions
and all you other writers faggots
and all you faggots whingers
think the comparisons are well meant
and that I did them for your pleasures
whereto my thoughts always are bent
and desire you to take a little pains
to pry into my imagination
