Fistfight
 
I can bend trees
just by the frost of the light.
There can be no moonbeams
in this jelly
for oak is sequestured by a darker magic.
 
Read me, scamper with the seeds
hold the reeds.
Dig me...But don't...Bury me
I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive
Warning: Listening to jazz excessively can cause a laxative effect.

O Mistress Mine

Wiliam Shakespeare

O mistress mine, where  are you roaming?

O, stay and hear;your true love's coming,

That can sing both high and low:

Trip no further, pretty sweeting;

journeys end in lovers meeting,

Every wise man's son doth know.

What is love? 'Tis not hereafter;

present mirth hath present laughter;

what's to come is still unsure;

In delay there lies not plenty;

Then, come kiss me,sweet and twenty,

Youth's a stuff will not endure.

power racks

We will happily transmutate
into electricity pillars
transferring spares and phalanges.
I won't battle you
you and your cross-sections;
maliciousness and naivety.

I can be nastier

devil gnashing his teeth
proportionally  to cuneiform of my brain matter
and me
managing to avoid
to notice your presence.

I won't do it anyway.

Your body
without movement
anti-approaching rapidly
on the mental conveyor I created.

Both of us barefoot
conquering hills
is but a past.

I can out-be you
in any spacetime

You' re a point
on a plane
which is a point
the most pathetic eye-lash of mine
is Aleph of yours

I'll shrink and die in different complexion.
born myself anew
tomorrow
officially
Will have a good one.

Would you want to be a vampire?

I am oh so lonely
and my life is so very miserable
I wish the world had never begun
and I'm all out of potato chips.

Oh, oh, oh . . .
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh . . .

I can play the piano like some 16-year-old
blacksmith while drinking coffee
with the mug in the right hand

RIGHT!!!

What's so funy
about it?

Hostile Calm

Another sock reflects on top of each arch tale.
          A standard sack hooks a white room.
Whatever buyer freezes opposite the protocol.
          A dictionary dashes under a narrow assistant.

The chorus,
The chorus, the chorus . . .
The chorus resists the victim over the electric flesh.

The chorus,
The chorus, the chorus . . .

A defeat ruins a leather.

on giving birth

sometimes when people give birth
they can take an album -
any album -
to the room where
they do it.

this is awfully nice because for some people -
or so I've heard -
it's not so easy to find time
to listen to an album -
any album -
or so I've heard.

besides,
what else would you do
when you can't really do
anything?

just some ducks trying to eat a bun underwater

Edgar Allan Poe
was a man who sometimes wore a black coat
and sometimes
when I extend one of my fingers
just a little bit
I can touch some of the particles
outside my skin.

it's called correspondence.

Continuation Of A Portuguese Speech
 
A rain drop
to eat it with bread

Two smiles, almost true
to check them at the mirror

A flaming gong
to play it and be ignored

A yellow flower in the swamp
to admire until it grows

A pool of water on the air
to crawl under it in the night

A source of crystalline water
to avoid it and suffer thirst

A celestial rain 
to wash ourselves from the torrid sun

A sharp and dry wind
to erode our limbs
 
An ash heap
to swallow it with satisfaction feeling guilty

A true and blinding light
to protect ourselves from it with hands

A luminous candle
to extinguish with spits

A marvellous book
To close its pages.

A Little Tail (I Know More About It Than You Do)

I was born where most people would have fallen asleep instead
In the sauna where the Christmas midgets dwell
And I said: the North is not the place for me my hat
Is made of genuine leather so keep your plastic shoes off my
Sidewalk, pal!

Then she said: It'll rain snow soon the streets will be covered
With frozen water/snow compound tomorrow tomorrow is soon soon
I will go the Germany and you can't stop me!

This is where we came in.
This is when we will leave.
This is where we'll be leaving -

No More Physics

Now.

untitled #n or an oriental idyll

japanese samurai eye oh dear how cowardly
did he die oh my god the food will be ready soon
where does the glowing doorway lead to geometrical shape
standing in front of it kneel sword master swaying army blood shadow
uncombed hair kimono toes white teeth white skin not hear what a strange rose
her body boiling in some strange soup cauldron green liquid strange eyes millions of them
tied to a chair hot candle hot red skin boiling very large eyes wide open screaming in terror dark green night
what a strange lipstick I think it was an evil spirit large spherical shape at the top of the building dressing his wounds with a blue napkin
are we not going to return after all all the books in the sack I wish you would eat something but you're so very thin dead dog carcass on the floor you bitch

Two Tensions

Attention - Detention -
These are the Two Tensions.
Other tensions
When there are two of them
May be two tensions
But they are never the Two Tensions
That Attention and Detention are.
Attention - Detention -
These are the Two Tensions.

If I could turn back time
I'd be writing this poem
about a month ago
and on top of that
I would already have finished
writing a 6-8-page essay
on Orwell's Animal Farm
and Pink Floyd's Animals.

If I could turn back time
time would be a round disc
attached at the middle
to some solid surface
just like the wheel
of fortune.

If I could turn back time
I'd buy more of these Belgian
chocolate seashells.

They taste
quite good
actually.
