EDUARDO VERSUS THE INFINITE INTERLOCK WINTER VARIATIONS (SPaz 1995)
Here this winter rains washt no souls clean
Here this winter rains pusht dirt under porous
pour no more this winter here, Eduardo,
selling poor history make you no less poor
por fa vor Eduardo, another trilogy please
I am just beginning to read between slogans.
Here this winter rains ornamental glory
Here this winter rains singular anxiety
anxious, no, no
give it a hard name with complex consonents
then we all can rally round the scar
tissue discarded heart issue
heart discarded military issue,
that'll do,
always did, two three four
and wherever the trouble started matters no more
seems it has less to do these days
see trouble inverts found maticies proud,
like, here, no, exactly like
proud exactly is
trouble
see how shroud
saved no half god-man from every sorted trouble
except embarrassment perhaps, yes, OK,
but whose?
iif Jesus, Eduardo,
If Jesus had no suffer
no last suffering
then where will we bathe today,
in river? in paridise? incognito?
Here this winter rains beyond steppes relentless
Here this winter rains far flung blossoming
flowers, Eduardo, you mentioned nothing of flowers
and this concerns
the green wo/man who kneeds my unleavened muscles
obviates my bubbling blood milk against curdling
girders most bone hollow ideas otherwize
calcified
without flowers, Eduardo
solutions are alchemy turned capital
prescriptions, medicines sold by dictators
and poets, well they will continue collecting garbage no doubt.
Nono, not Maguey, not drunken 7% amniotic flowers
staggering along roadsides
pissing poison on every hallucination
impaling soft plump angels through open armed brambles.
Nono, try again, Eduardo, but do forget the flowers next time,
for here this winter rains sing wait, wait, wait
some day ugly yard neighbor leaves
and we against his weeds
remember how,
first came wait wait wait,
then came flower,
then beauty,
then freedom
then come again wait wait wait.

Na eef you soil suckers feign asthma
straighten up, heah
smell faker when you nose hairs twitch
face her stain glass woman mahogany legs
hunched over burnin fury like hyena honches manga/in male hoards.
Give em the news, heah
We will lay their nuerosis toe to toe across Montana
construct walls of grafitti leather coats
pierce bones through their fancy skull boutiques bordering on Idaho.
Now be still
as she frees herself of mountain chains
Then be a syllable for her ears exclusively:
"may all your suffragettes suffer silent unspeakable atrocities
may all your reassembled historians learn to love plunging necks lines
three lines round the gallows, a martyrs supermarket,
proceeds supporting cinema fanfemtasique".
It's their way son,
women was made for the rope, just ask your Mother there
she'll tell you how she's all choked up with emotion.

Founders of philos de gang grene
express
some less than eloquently
but close enough
yaya
close enough for making commissions
universal desires ---
insult enslave killKillKILL
flattery being neo-formalist self-empowerment.

No sassafras tonight baby on lent
coming down off copatt weekend
sees her knees all wrinkly -fied
means she been off her feet too long
there's a song in there
If you tap it out
co -rect -la-la- la-la -ly He,
now, where's he at / evenings?
Mary refused to believe latin tango locks
were anything but too hard to pull a comb through
but see me insist they gonna stay, Mary
cause mines is a natural earthly phenomena
gold and diamonds and if it must be so
then alright pig iron ore too
well I mean exceptins for conditioner
animal abusive free, mind you
But I've seen plenty of animals what abuse humans
Know one Pit bully
shel-lack-ed its han-del-ler
tune of 2-5-0 dah-lers, bay-bee
3- four- time.

My girl
Now she wonders
but don't ever ask
why I won't go to church
so I answered to myself
I thought God was in Heaven
pinching the butts of stars
MisterSuperFunkyBossaNova
cause I saw one fall for the first time other night
just arc plunged
back broken
swan stroken
like there was no air in that sky
and I did think of God right then
and how he flicked that femme fetal
no more than a mosquito on his shoulder
right out the darkness and into nothingness
which I used to think were the same thing
until that particular evening
and then I figured out
how mythmakers of ancient Greece
told some far flung soap operatic story
about events no more spectacular
but very much similar to these
although their explanation has been repeated
so many times that even the
GREEKS DON'T BELIEVE em anymore
and I still can't explain
why I just never did like going to church
any church
don't care what stains or pains they
adorn their windows with
just never did
and how happy I was to go to college
if for no other reason than that
I didn't have to go churchin no more
and how liberated I still feel
every Sunday morning
thinking important God thoughts
in the hazy
refusing to get out of bed
cause I'm about to receive a vision moments
that preceed those first communion careful steps
onto a porch overlooking
so many creeks of worship
flowing slow into a clear and shining river of hope
puffing out hearts like some big cigar God
rolled up and showing off to some
and come to think of if it
I do seem to remember striking
God coming to me last night suggesting
that if I wasn't going to church
perhaps I could do the honors
of getting that fine stogie started.

Girl w/Horns
used to do me tightously
but this one
her thumbs is too short
and that would bug me out
an entire lifetime
so I just says, looky here
I ain't no prize
but I do got books for sale
if you got a fin
and she did.
