Diemend

But when he looked in a mirror his eyes were blue.
Sunlight creeps along the ground like a banal scavenger
The moon in her time crawls down intrepid walls like
some hungry wall-scaling cannibal
It wasn't obvious till she looked back and the
screen was gone, exposing her to the faithless
black wind; the light on the upper right side of the
window was slowly fading with her hands turning
gray and the light from the lower left side of the
window shined like a bright movement, turning every
cell in her body to stop

Two slats of wood covered his face in the sound of an X.
He walked the street his right hand out splashing the air
Women and pregnant men, rotting from years of contemplation,
lined the streets crucified on every telephone pole;
dogs and cats and feathers nailed to the glans of every
palm-tree; piles of bones and fire edit the sidewalk

A dog aimlessly roams hacking and coughing up metal designs of
seditious intricacy
Cerberus got lost and wandered from Hell and wanders the pages of history
HE whistled and Anpu came running barking door-ways for Ra
The rain drops up here – concrete and front lawns and mailboxes belay us for clouds -
up to our knees in the muck of Tlaloc

So he reminisced on how full moon nights invisible
hands played the leaves like drums

Then she got up and walked out the door of her heart

Teardrops that gather in the cavity of your shoulders and turn to ice....
from this ice in 6 wks a fish grows and 6 weeks after that it
hatches from the ice....the nest's eyes glow and are terminated....fallen
on the ground their body quickly decomposes....decomposes into a
pile of dried leaves, ripped trash bags, and unfinished letters then swept up
in the end
