I AM A GHOST
I am a ghost,
that much is true.
I ring and I ring
like a bell unspooled.
The sound automatically accelerates:
lightning on speed,
ostritch feathers, pink fruit,
a scream, a shatter, a chant.
These are my weapons,
the ones who cannot be judged.
These are my weapons,
eating with my hands.
I am a ghost,
that much is true.
And I will live my life
invisible, uncouth, and true.
Scurvy Witchcraft
this is the beginning of the end.
period of mourning:
grapes,
fresh birds,
ghosted sunset on my pillow.
my heart rate,
little thick sighs
in the air,
millions of words
above bottled water.
i was burning,
that's all, that's all,
and i wanted to tell you i am free.
you can take off my armour,
my light.
this is the end of the beginning.
On the Theory of Control
I want to rule the world.
Small drops in my hand,
Winding window panes,
The smoothness on my face.
Can I absorb the pain I want?
Perfection:
A subtle tragedy.
So I'm screaming and slanting,
Pure as a flowing river.
See the god of enlightenment,
the god of water and the sea.
And when you recover
(small size, small size)
I will be there.
I’m Going to Pretend I Don’t Have a Shadow
So,
I’ll make a cup of coffee!
Whoo! Drinking, yummy.
Now what?
Work hard work fast.
Better not.
Better not.
Better no---
there’s the phone!
Hello!
Hi.
How are you?
Taking a break.
Whoo!
What now?
Work hard work fast.
Everything is building
aortas and all,
like the Berlin Wall.
Or something like that.
WHOO!
