I.
I stopped here to listen to “Somewhere over the Rainbow”
and
I wanted to stop here for jazz
Why?
Cancer.
something went awfully wrong
as you just heard
cancer.
golly!
but
it’s somehow comforting to me--Yea!
I’m still a little high
but I think the rock
is a metaphor
for the illusion of habitat.
--it’s quicksand is what it is

they forget:
very strong country demons
civilized butterflies
they call dreams:
order
and lost discontinuity
they take:
the end to the moon
with this something;
(a way to do,
to breathe)
it was restricted
show me
western moments after dark,
show me
long-winded praise,
or criticism done on days
show me now
things like this
that they confiscated
I want to hope;
because I will.
our name I lay down
to other countries
wow I really like 10:07-I
ReplyDeleteI don't know what it is...maybe the whole reference of dreams and hope (Somewhere Over the Rainbow) mixed with the repetition of Cancer and quicksand and getting high.
It's powerful.
