The Moon and the Spew Sea


Full moon lesions Creeping out of snail shell The gagging sounds yellow and full with admission The hanging mound’s inevitable position Loosened hosts at attention still A will That can never spill Or dissolve for the benefits of solution Watery clocks stopped Making their own goo And leak now from The chimed tick of the hollow Cold fission will follow Cold genesis sits up Opens its window Split with religions Oracling planetary privileges Hissing Olympian recognition Fingering my inappropriate coefficients Opening my lips and Slipping me an equivalent Tupleting with vicious precision Quick splitting visits Sick with division Sick little hiccupping Fits of initiative Victim mimicking Binging autistic My spit up met with Sphinx grimace Osiris scattered in halves Ridding the body of mass and At the same time Creating a greater amount of free energy Floating over the parts you have hidden Ritualists lost in Egyptian tradition With no regard for the laws of physics Out of body experience There is another here with us It knows you, it is obvious It’s presence triggers future connections We remain unaware of A hand is covering my mouth I am not sure that is allowed Who is this invisible slut?

If you skin alive Go in Deep For exit in vehicles veering toward trees Engine bowels and Warm towels and now Just you and me Wrapped up and blanketed All of us accidents Strapped up and thankful We got back in one piece Now my dreams of you are sandy But I still dream Like we are swimming promethean deep Grinning with the unsinkable willfulness That has Lifted this perfect division from me Floating up among the white foam Waking up to white pokes Hard and skeletal Charmed and welcoming Full on hypnosis skin accomplices My hint of skeleton Grabs your hand grabs my leg grabs your hand grabs my neck My inside to snap twig Echo of blood in sap lick Howl of skin spilled with drink Shout of guts in the sink Our alignment was rigged.
