I dream, but I do not see my dreams,
I desire, but I do not see my desires
I dreamed, but only see my dreams when sleeping fitfully
I see my dreams think of love and of things I have forgotten
I rest above my dreams - a made bed I sleep atop

Gargoyle: Section 2:
I, who defend the existence of something
Have no right to touch it
I relish the moments I touch even their enemies.
And those that see me move remember it harshly
I break off a stone skin like lint
crack it and roll it off

Divinity is in my neighbor’s yard
The largest tree I can see from my house
Divinity is in the technicolor filter over the world when there are grey skies
(This does not apply to each who reads this who likes the same thing)

Repeated Eulogy
I believe he hangs over me like the forsythia in the field
Makes an uncoiling in my spine
Tells me the sky is eager to touch the neck of the earth
Tells me he is blessed to touch me
Scents me and drops musk into the dark of me
fount of desire and me, me, me
I believe he hangs over me like the forsythia in the field
Makes an uncoiling in my spine

fount of desire and me, me, me

For two that participate in a process,
When that participation differs
Five things are desired,
Desire for the other, differed according to the other
Desire for the sense of self, differed according to each’s desire
Desire for the process, which is the thing that is shared

That the last harvests would be left to rot in the field
the sociable process sunders
torn apart like a bad weld

Back porch overhang
The cloth mask I had at hand hangs on my ear
after cleaning out the caked dirt of my old roommate’s room.
I sit, stare,
watch the siding on the house fall off,
see a country of mold elongate in the crawl space.

Journalism in A Time of Vertices
Words now are like carving in charcoal
a sentence shatters easily
my friends and myself are littered with half-correct infographics
we chisel at charcoal, which
as you know
is willing to break more than it is willing to take shape.

A Glowing Review of Estrogen: Part 2 or
Where is the Divine Being?
morning sky traces branches over window meshes
life brushes by my head
The chill hangs by the body
bends at the waistline over a stone wall
and stretches to reach the dropped bones.
Mother in me. We sit at the thanksgiving table.

I dwell in my life
Compass, contract, divider and sextant
There is no intercessor between the high sun and I
No saint between us
I listen to the voice of Jacaranda trees
Watch quartz spar with the afternoon
Speak to the ears of hares
I wear Cholla husks - Trypophobia coat -

There is no intercessor between the high sun and I

Utero in Absentia
For old and older rests
A netting is there that catches that which soaks the skin of the earth
If you walk in this place you can follow from the edges inward
In this celebration, pass by the games on the children’s tables and sweet dishes

Where is the burning?
Artemis where am I?
Where is the burning?
Tend me
I - lost in density
I - lost in smolder
where am I?
I simmer, I brush away my own breath
I need you
