At the piano
I sat and it went
tiriti gruween
brung.
Got up
like a maniac,
picked up
Vallejo
his stubborn
ache voluptuously
around his human fingers
I dropped the book,
the invisible rain
outside was falling
like stones
and I could have
slammed down a
shot of whiskey
but bottle was empty
scratching the olive
skin into red patches
of hurt
and decided everything
was a circumnavigation
‘round nothing
that I had to kick
language out my house
like a dirty old dog
these things like winds are words
and I wanted hard life
tonight, like fury
dripping from my cheeks
and it was raining
ridiculous worms
writhing in eight ecstasies
it was the night
to leave in flight
like a rapacious animal
to dark and faithless
jungles
at the very least,
a night
without ideas
and again to the piano,
I sat and made clouds of sound,
dirilin dorem, silafu.
love –> “his stubborn
ache voluptuously
