"She had no very accurate idea what 'acrobats' were; they might be a religious sect, or they might be a savage tribe, or, possibly, even both." --Alice Cary, From Year to Year (1884)

STUNA FRIKA CKAFI.

fresh ungulate PIES
ocean another INCH
one hand clapping's ECHO

biding a further SHOE
written in Tide PODS
asides on the OBOE

Volkswagen DOME
leaky façade of SEEM
won't you let it RIDE

each dreadful IDEA
as life itself, DEAR
Cassandra on deaf EARS

shriek microwave RANG
our wreck seen from AFAR
why not vote NAZI

skulls the only ones GRIN

Ship of Theseus.

"...a blood road back to the moon..." --Caitlin Kiernan

Weird thread.

orange gristle fane
in agate veil
ogham preach with use
stillicide slop

better off patchblend
sneck went lich one
day against lambent
stone bequest oven

(taken at the valley house gallery)

We are running out of coffins.

      pinklight just now gone
vouchsafed riddle ambergris
      ghost leviathan

as the coral we're building
climbs & blackens the sky wide

Naming the scandal.

Taste may be the only gift that lasts.

"And this is how I sometimes think of myself, as a great explorer who has discovered some extraordinary land from which he can never return to give his knowledge to the world: but the name of this land is hell." --Under the Volcano

"For Americans not familiar with the language of the Third World, that’s two contrasting denials of political legitimacy."

This office that the president has GASHED,
to hurricane & chaos would ATTUNE,
as stench pervades from the owl-jejunest STABLE.
And clarity wobbles like a runaway HUBCAP;
Death's fingers with our own at times ENLACE,
in Caligari's maze sink each day DEEPER.

"...while I think it is indeed the high watermark of the Paisley Underground, for me it stands apart from the scene, or any scene for that matter, existing as a timeless and powerfully mysterious transmission that helped change the course of my listening habits forever."

"The quack bootmaker is considerable; as corn-cutters can testify, and desperate men reduced to buckskin and list-shoes. But the quack priest, quack high-priest, the quack king! Why do not all just citizens rush, half-frantic, to stop him, as they would a conflagration?" --Carlyle

"We live, voluntarily, in the basement." (via)

where bridges arrive
through great doors
bringing the common grave

where bridges arrive
in leafless Goldengrove
with a fanfare of murders
