into the very end,
into volumes of perfumes,
the skin of inflatable things,
into andromeda,
into her west,
into her stellar apples-
laid to rest,into the motion of things-
out of the stillness-the vast flowering of all things
sans dead,
forgetting all the round eyeballs,
gazing at my head-
forgiving no other-

that you’re loved by us,
or by them,

Avalon
I danced with
all nine sisters of Avalon:First
opened and closed my eyes again-
I fell, broke my leg-
Second
forms perfect curves at a store-
there is dirt under her nails.
Third
made me come into Africa– just to open the gates of hell-
Fourth
brought me food and weed in her forest
to put an umbrella over my head-
Fifth
married my ghost-
just to steal my jewels away-

Daggers in the Heart
We have no money-
when we move tohelp each other-
everyone jumps
to play stars
in these stolen hours,
some are plainly speaking: freaks-
they sit at the end of my towers:
creased,
I’d forbid them from these:times-and-spaces
but they don’t need my approval-
though they clearly meet it rolling
over each other,

Dreams
I slept next to her-
to hitch a ride in a dream-her shadow-took me –
to what used to be hell-
she made me miss one beat-
and I entered alone-
to my right was a toothless witch-
she slid into the-
dark and said my name-
I blazed a line around where she sits,so Cane knew where she was hiding
from-
there were men sitting on the floor-
concrete-and-neat
they were calling their planes-
for safe passages up-here--
I looked for Pam,

Father and Son
Shakespeare objects to
the writings of his-
son-
One: they’re always about-
women-Two: why do they always
stay in rhyme-
and don’t go further
than the father
would have
preferred
The father: would call a
vase a vase, but for the flowers that weren’t
planted by
him-

The father would have spoken-
of the sadness-
inherent in love-from the beginning,
The father would have
mentioned how
tall the son was-
and how shorter-
sadness feels-
The father would have
written a tragedy-far superior to mine-
I only speak of love-
(and not its tears!)

You and I know:

Ours is love-

Bites into moors
And Marshes,

I feel the pangs of love-
though we haven’t really met,except in dreams-
except her in forms only sap can seam,
and we haven’t kissed yet,
except in soaring recollectionsof all that’s been,
and there’s no moving with her now,
the doors she comes through--fasten her away from us-in begrudging,
screen,“you mustn’t be loved god!”
“why!”
“because love doesn’t approve-
of her being its queen.”

Some men as women,
This grants their inside-wishes,
And not all hosts can adjust that quick, what
appears as a man,
May be a newly born woman,
(Some bowls are inverted)
It’s a neglect to forbid-same-sex-love,
It’s a lie to announce them:
union-dead,
Only that I can’t be in love-

Only that you-
Are not always what you seem,

I loved you -
when you carefully revealed:
you’re the one I’m married to- 50 years on or so-
In Africa,
When, right before falling sleep-whispered of your plans for that one day-
And when you looked at me-
As though we were already in love somewhere,
And I know I haven’t thrown any
arrows at your heart- but gaze at the
places yours struck-
Night before night,
Day after day,
In cluster of sighs,-
with palms held up high-
in tiny movement
that offer no escape---
