sparkling foxes of constellations bright

fixing all the foxes
work it out inside
to jump to jupiter's height
my heaven
remind time in separation
freak out this space
saturn's rings
slender finger
surrender
surrender
unmasked you pretenders

moondust of the galaxies
eddies in the void
all gone beyond
gravity alludes to your flight
all gone
i saw four eyes this time
i saw your possibility expand
i felt you in front of me

you were there
ALL GUTS
EYES OPEN
SUPER BRAVE
ULTRA COOL
NEVER FLINCH
EASY BREATHS
LOUD SHOUTS
POWERFUL STUFF
SEA WORTHY LEGS
SPIDERY EYES
SPRAWLED OUT
SCRAWLED DOWN
CRAWLING ALL OVER

ALL THE OTHERS WILL BE THE CLOUDS THAT PART EACH MORNING WHEN WE WAKE UP THE WORLD
and anyway it's true

so

ok so another poem
you know who wrote em
just another tipsy scribbler
making marks to remember
loose structure
thoughts to puncture
sleepy minds, never mind
cushy couch on the corner
dirty sheets to adorn her
writhing on and on
some have come
some have gone
but, hey, it was fun
and never over, just begun

when then was now

now it's time
always been fine
yeah, our reasons
yeah, our rhymes
without apology
a speechless fascination
just eyes meeting
no expectations
just time, fleeting
our moments of reverberation
heavenly sensations
pushing forward
mad howling winds
down the madison
under the magnolias
it's quiet
and under the I-55
we're silent
and the river is a changing constant
always never the same
we'll never be the same

i made it, i got it

i made pizza
i made plans
i made beds in cities
i never slept
i made time
i made drawings
to pass the time
i made tracks
i made noise
i made shapes
staring out the window

i got lost
i got left
i got taken
i got rest
i got coffee
i got to sleep
i got up early
i got dropped off
i got to see you
i got drunk
i got attached
i got nervous
i got away
i got nothing
but the clothes in my bag
