"Those in The Order who live long enough eventually find themselves drawn, unconsciously but irresistibly compelled, to a door that should not and should never have existed."

divest-rattle elbow
for which i purge gimcrack
breath-hot flourish Mothra

this nothingberg rusted
this rapture of cattle

Having different canons is worse than having different politics or different religions. It automatically renders all your other judgments suspect.

outline on sidewalk taped
to wring last sinew

from dandelion wines

eulogy too wordy

Dracula risen
hell-ticks in acid rinse
it must be my weird

"...if the most excellent of those of us within disability culture will never be able to be excellent enough for an able-minded and able-bodied world...where is there a place for just normal, mediocre ass POC in academia—the type of normal mediocrity that is enough to allow abled white folks career success at a dime a dozen??"

rain dance boiling in the slack
nightmare for the puissant left
wallet full of glacier drip

whose fault never ask of moss
stone flung gray & hard above
combat boots in wud raindance

"In my estimation, putting 禮 front and center on the front cover of the book was a much better choice than having a portrait of Confucius, as on later editions."

"When does one ever know a human being? Perhaps only after one has realized the impossibility of knowledge and renounced the desire for it and finally ceased to feel even the need of it. But then what one achieves is no longer knowledge, it is simply a kind of co-existence; and this too is one of the guises of love." --Iris Murdoch, Under the Net (1954)

The life and crimes of Palmer Rockey.

   keldspar, void's one barnacle;

   yardang of breath, half the sky
emits such manic quietude
that the dank meme pulpitbull you
      think caught reeks of loss

T S Eliot was booked to read at SMU in 1958 by Lon Tinkle. 9,000 people showed up.

Brother Swaggart, how do i

"It turns out the small-scale farmer is no match for such incomprehensibly vast weather; most people have migrated from what farmland remains, leaving the battle to be fought by armies of enormous machines — but even these live on borrowed time..."

"Once Lower Manhattan is underwater, I'm sure we'll all look back fondly on the period when there were approximately 45 media reporters for every 1 climate reporter" --@KateAronoff

vampire facial

in the heyday
of the madcaps
there were big tricks

between bot romps
& a drone war
you could make haste

but not have plans
you were hemmed in
by a locked gawk

as the jokes tore
through the laid waste
land of sib riff

Xrays from Pluto. (via @AstroBioProf via @LeeBillings)

lust among thieves
notebook split hoof
boyg of spoilage
you mutter grudge

i could bring rooks
boisterous coilname
this nutmeg dump
fulsome wolf howl

a toit for coign

The real enemy.

No More Words for Snow.

passage to blackacre 9

cerulean all rune read
confess from some dread forsworn

alas we are masters of war
our rubric tattoo & song

a web of unfettered greed
no fan yet collapse with all

the duel between truth & lies
brings death to both recipes

The Hairy Who.

passage to blackacre 8

Northwest Highway slestered with
the brittle trail linked to me
through fraught years & roster of
eggplant colored battlefields

i run like a bloodstained waif
each breath snatched from nettle sky
& risk carrying onward
more rot than embossed scripture

hail wambly zigzag hail route
among crazed drivers of vans
whose best hope is belly up

Cold Sun, Dark Shadows.

         "Appreciation

The lively gestures have cried, turning alpaca
      without appreciation

To endure a satisfactory deck, an
      unsatisfactory chant, a punctual
      ivory-country glow, a warlike aspiration, an expectant typist

Like quick imbeciles
We have sent him a string"
