Kelam

The universe lay wet at your feet
Bleeding like hanging teeth
And red fire

You woke up.
Screamed.
Sighed
And dreamed of another day
Walking into yourself
Into the sun
Into the pavement


Jumping into other people
And each place that moved about
You,
Making you
Into you.


Balletic, you
Faint into the life
That is this.


Lips open
And eyes dying
Into a labyrinth of
Gazes


You fumed
And tasted
Yourself
Or something
Else
Elemental, pulsing
And cursing
Your mind
Into a quasar.


Into
The gospel of
An Unending
Organism,
That fights
And rips and eats and licks
Into the skin
Of an anonymous beast


Burnt into
Your pill,
Into your headless
Routine.
Into a soft, lucid death
That is slower than
the gaps between you
and that planet of reality.

You wake up.
You scream.
You dream.
And you die again
Into the womb
Late at night
Under your eyes.


dark mines
holding you by the throat
and your stomach
so still
with curious crying.
