Seagull Face

             after Nada Gordon

3:04 a.m. nothing doing
here I and my ilk
are the real problem
I seldom buy a book
facing left others right
peacock and seagull face off ... lifeline
up the bass ... a U-shaped valley
insert seagull face here ... mine?
dead seagull face dead fly dead fly pelican
dead seagull face dead seagull face boy in water boy in water
dead jellyfish dead jellyfish dead tree dead tree
seagull face seagull ... Brandon
eyeglasses and bicycling
I can't stand ... seagull face

seagulls rock of seagulls seagulls
bum pals woof
agree ... she has that sort of seagull face
her face yesterday reminded me of
hungry seagull face ... seagull model? model seagull
males men young men young adult females women young women
sitting animal bird water bird sea bird seagull face
post master what joined
urban regret ... tea necklace concept
oil and gas and global seagull face
smashing friend not near a roller coaster
why do you think so?

that image as that of seagull face
as usually in such acoustic I acoustic am sitting
with acoustic seagull face acoustic
you gestate to contract flight
evil witch ... how you like it
how your seagull face
wet toast weevil 4 coach?
should have a seagull face ... shouldn't
carved and elaborate our quaker
carved and detailed our quaker
seagull face is gold ... thank you for bringing that

Among the Giants of Hell

             for Tony Tost

I was executed yesterday as I was
walking among the giants of hell
I alone am the greatest colossus
in meditating on hell, for example
I like skiing by telephone

I was but now dying in the grasp
of this pro-American, pro-Israeli dictator
why is it funny? I don't know
he hammered me and quite rightly
I was driving him back to his hotel and I thought,
he's literally a gunslinger and can't resist
getting behind the giants of hell

all of us have seen history
essays written by faceless cardinals
among the giants of hell which
may weigh up to 1000 pounds

have you noticed a line
on your credit card statement that
science will save air travel and wake up
the ancestry of distant worlds
for the most part the war
scared the guy finding a way to be heard
once he puts up some clouds
in the English department

a huge snarling bulldog hurtles
toward you

tighten the shit out of the snare
and pound it but please
do not expect to be included
among the giants of hell

the high rank Parmenides
has is shown by these
quivering little firms
the abundant aftermath

and yet Washington was alone
among the giants of hell
and I have read a hell of a lot
I can't help but think
but I have orders from the Big Man
you get the idea

10 Questions for Christians

who wants another Yager bomb! I can hold my lick-her well
who's the assclown that signed me up for the NOW Action Alert list

I can't help but add an octopus or squid to a picture last night driving
I used my cupholder to hold my ice cream while driving

I see the assclown speed past Arthur Treacher's, grab some frozen squid
it's great you worked on your riding and improved

I waited patiently to grow into men and 20 seconds to turn back into little boys
squid however have the vessels on the freakmagnet side

evidence that Bush hates black people
some great stuff like "Jesus thought 9/11 was a comedy"

pirates would likely hold my political views against me
most of the time I'm a loud, obnoxious assclown but it's just a front

for I am merely a human! a large green being
which resembles a human with huge bat-wings

I can't sit still in my chair, I can't do any work, I can't even hold my pee
cuz that damn squid will whoop you like it whoops everything else

a nice "cottage cheese butt" would equal up to a good "assclown"
cuz that damn squid will whoop you as has already been explained elsewhere

then I will "find God"
I'll wait for an angel, but I won't hold my breath 'magine they're busy

to bad you're a squid
if you don't hold my hand, I suck

Ocelot of Woodland Park Zoo

                 after Lisa Jarnot

oh ocelot of Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle,
neofelis nebulosa, enlarge the ocelot of
Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle, ocelot
of the orient, of striking but conservative beauty,
of the catamountain which is encouraging us
to turn to the word "catamountain" on an
earlier page, of many endangered species
such as the jaguar, mentioned above, and
other felines of a smaller size, de-clawed
to protect our customers and our fabric,
of medium-sized cats of the Americas,
oh ocelot of Montgomery, be compared
to the ocelots of Central and South America,
except that they are smaller and totally different,
oh ocelot, school will be in session soon,
oh 38,000 hungry coeds to consume,
ocelot of San Pedro, of the environmentalists,
uneasy, excursive, adverse, greedy, oh ocelot,
oh wildcat or bobcat of North America,
he who stands for me, for biker dating services
and parakeets, oh ocelot, hot in the third
yet when he's old not so hot,
ocelot of fear when the animal attacks
and of sadness at the conclusion, ocelot of death,
impetuously, oh knowingly, erroneously,
fatuous, ah, more gallant than an insect,
oh ocelot of Central America, logged in
to submit comments, what the hell, ocelot,
tell us what you really think, oh ocelot,
I so agree, how right you are, Alderaan
was the first planet destroyed by the Death Star,
oh ocelot we are talking very fast about,
my heart goes out to you and prays
that your heart is happy with love,
always watching our backs, oh ocelot!
such a cute kitty! ocelot! heeeyy ocelot!
oh ocelot celebrating his own return
in the shadows, daybreak, nightfall,
badger lemur urchin, oh ocelot.

The Aminals

This is a collection of photos of incredibly small aminals.
The photos aren't spectacular, but the aminals are.

The aminals are being fed an unhealthy seed diet.
The toxic properties of the aminals are not well defined.

When the aminals are threatened, the tail is tucked between the legs.
The aminals are doing just fine.

On Wednesday I was gonna be unimaginative.
The aminals are resin. TGIF!

Hello there Heidelweiss, jah ist bearday time!
Holla back at ya neighborhood Mack, mile a minute!

The aminals are nice and large and add to the whole look of the room.
The zoo keeper ate his keys and the aminals are running afuck.

The aminals are all sleeping.
We wake up as the aminals are waking in the morning.

It was proved that the aminals are formed by the attack of a suitable base.
If all the aminals are there then I think it will be worth going.

All the aminals are gone. Laurel is in Sun Valley.
I miss Holly. I love Holly. YES I'LL GO OUT WITH U! I love u so much.

The aminals are glad that you made them.
And we're glad that you made us too!

What sound would the aminals make when the aminals are sad or happy.
"Wanna go home!" "Thirsty!" "Hungry!" "Gotta go potty!"

Luckily for me I am in the armpit of the world.
But that's not the point here, maybe the aminals are taking over.

The aminals are after me.
I've done something wrong to offend them.

They're on the loose and want my head.
I'm running around in circles on the earth.

I think we will ask for more info when we get to Benidorm.
The aminals are eating soup. Pit-pat, pit–pat.

Beyond the Complexity of My Whiteness

Will someone please define whiteness for me?

Acuras and credit cards tell me that my whiteness is oppressive.

Writing about my whiteness is really easy. My whiteness is something that I am. I don't mean that my whiteness is this accident of birth.

My whiteness is reflected in documents like my birth certificate, driver's license, and eventually my death.

That's what part of my whiteness is now. But that's the kind of thing where my whiteness is kind of strange.

My impulse is to emphasize the ways in which my whiteness is different.

My whiteness is protected. My whiteness is not the one of money, it is not the one of privilege.

My whiteness is emphasized by contrast with the beautiful complexions of my friends. Please advise.

My whiteness is no cause for celebration. It's a cause for worry. My whiteness is getting in the way of my ability to see.

My whiteness is a force field around my body. It is unjust, immoral even. As we flee across the hills my whiteness is covered.

My whiteness is not my main political concern. My family traded in their cultural heritage.

My whiteness is throwing off the needle of my moral compass. My whiteness is permanent.

There are situations in which my whiteness is certainly not an unmarked category. It is not at the center. Only a few more years.

My whiteness is invisible to the power structures of these countries: Canada, Denmark, France, The Netherlands.

My femaleness is very visible. My whiteness is a homing device for the sketchtastic men that congregate here.

My whiteness is overwhelming me, but so is your titty name.

My whiteness is a mask for all the cultural and political oppression I have suffered. My whiteness is made an issue by everyone else.

My whiteness is a product of time, not individual intent. This does not mean that the fact of my whiteness is not accidental.

I find it irrelevant whether my whiteness is genuine or not. My whiteness is not an issue. Am I one of the privileged, waving a flag?

My whiteness is passing along certain information, certain exercises, certain physical frames.

I don't understand how these constructs operate in your country. My whiteness is not quite the same as yours.

Being uncomfortable with my whiteness is healthy. My whiteness is a stigma of too many connotations, an unfathomable cultural schism.

My whiteness is not to be confused with a Socratic dialogue.

My whiteness is what people see first, leaving me something of a blank slate until I open my mouth and my class falls out.

My whiteness is an accident of migratory history. For that I am to suffer myriad punishments.

My whiteness is visible and I have no choice but to be viewed. I have had long discussions about these ideas with a co-worker who is Chinese.

My whiteness is pressed close. I am uncomfortable to see. Wait a minute, I'm not white.

My whiteness is contestable. My whiteness is the factor that protects me from being stopped.

My whiteness is terminal. Join in the fun.

Fickle Chemistry

I'm wearing a T-shirt with the slogan I'm With Stupid. Do I smell a little bit of hypocrisy? I smell a little bit of cream when I swirl it.

The Weaver daughters had a mini-freakout at the go-kart racetrack and I'm sorry, but come on.

Get rid of the largely black clientele? Perhaps I smell a little bit of reverse psychology.

I smell prejudice in the air! Against whom or what? Fuck you if I smell a little bit street today. Too often, my neocon alarm bell rings.

When I smell gas in the kitchen, I know one of my stove's pilot lights has gone out. When I stand right next to the water heater, I smell a little bit of gas. If I move one foot away, I no longer can smell it.

I smell a little bit of mango and something that smells like candy corn. Patrick smells metal. It feels a little carbonated.

I get flack for calling the cashier a "black female?" That makes no sense. Be careful or they will call ya Bin "Fuckin'" Laden!

Marianne says I smell a little like cinnamon toast and goat. I should go and take a shower.

Am I, and other posters, supposed to apologize for caring about this subject? I am shaking and crying right now and the whole thing just made my eyes bleed.

Good work and stay out of the orange jump suits as long as possible. I smell a little bit of double standard going on here.

I smell a little bit of fish on the forum. I'm not familiar with the writer but I know the editor somewhat.

"As time goes by it's going to get worse." "I'm going to sweat a lot." "I got my Birkenstocks."

These sound like statements coming from a group of people who are suffering. I smell dialogue plagiarism here. There is no sthingy there is no sthingy.

I smell a little like the same thing going on here. But here the issue is that is the case where often.

I'm concerned that I smell like a boy, but I don't think that's what it smells like. Either way, I want to eat the smell. Mistake mistake mistake.

Onion suppose to make our nerves calm and put me well into sleep, but not for me. Anyways it is talking about how school is design to keep you bored and stupid. I smell a little bit of hippie in there, but it's cool.

You can go places in the world with pudding. It's very very faint. Or do I smell "establishment of religion"?

Is that look supposed to be a sexy pout? It actually reminds me of someone.

It's okay, I have very fickle chemistry. My hair smells fresh though. A lot has happened. Actually that was a lie. Not a lot has happened.

By the way is so far going good except I feel like I smell a little bit. Who cares if I smell a little bit, everyone does! No! Everyone does not smell.

Seriously though I have a toothbrush and deodorant so I'm good.

Winter

Micke boy I remember you
from back in the days in the Arts

I would get some sound-activated
cold cathodes after reading about

some knee hooks carved out
of blocks and glassed to the boat

did you have a red Grand Am and played
them off your trunk? I think

the rotary engine enthusiasts
were 30-foot-tall monsters

that hurled boulders and drained
multiple guns before dying

how does that style work
is it difficult to wet exit

after you do the run and square
they seem to stay down longer

and all the children have to learn
to kill with the sword

Micke I remember driving to Westwood
I think we were the Jets

just being like uh OK sure
say mom mom North Carolina

asking for a vote oink oink
yes we need one of those

this winter has been better
than I remember last winter being

Cephalopod Fucking

              for Brandon Downing


Tabitha Vevers, Embrace, 2006, oil and gold leaf
on sea clam shell, 4 3/4" x 6 7/8" x 1 1/4"



the idea that water can retain some kind of imprint
of compounds dissolved in it means fuck-all to anyone?

the equation between God and fucking is so Japanese
putting a million explosions in your trilobite
that sort of thing

we could call this a huge argument from silence and then
the optical clarity of the ninety-one boobsquad

the cephalopod is your god
he hasn't arms or legs
"prehaps your some kind of morbid fucking asshole"

there's a fossilized dinosaur foot right next to my
ceramic plant holder, not alarm yourself!
nem kell megijedni! do not fuck me about!

the psychopharmacological sex holiday
crash but on a fucking type
who brought it is all sorts of those

sexually lipstick the breast-fed foldable nads
anal shipowner chime in
with plenty of good old-fashioned centurion

exhortation of off-fucking
in the case of a dry seal

explicit hetero mother
is that you transferring the energy of the flower

please remind me how happy I am
I'm throwing myself at you

Listless Idolatry

                 for Nada

panic kind of scene (dame/hit man)
Nada swims exhausted in oily seas

the rhetorician addresses witnesses and they are all moving
optic receivers (eyes)

nothing in fist came to earth
no special "wartime" clause

a lesbian with visible nipples does not have eyes
none at all and not expect the suspicion

and blacklisting blood that's thin and colder
or Lady Nada seventh violet

grumbling six expediency souvenirs
qua merged picnic vatican l'oeil orchards

hurrah unused words of Marx
not based on iron wire perfectly

null face of the government
anemic zenith high noon

Thursday builders banished idlers calmly smoking
seeking Kurds to the feared politics

and could it be so violent beneath a porch
because Israel's jog-trot lack of low-spirited malarkey

certainly isn't to say that om should get
the best of six organs on a split 7"

Nada at least gives you something gal anyday
& Uncle Schmucko providing dull background noise

but the main man's effort is irrelevant brooms
secretionary redhead dampener

boilover Swahili nonmusics
I think I need to do something exciting

Too Much Ass

I have a big ass
and they can't see me
we could all use that much ass ... but
you wanna be real

we sucked far too much ass
than one should ever suck
you blow yourself up if you don't
want to be Judd Nelson
alright?

severe rashes around the mouth with gak on a nightly basis
I guess I won't be signing up to haunt any establishment
into this dysfunctional pseudoketchup?

find out if the excess lies in how much
shirt that show your asscrack all period
there's just too much ass around here
I can't stand to look

this big toolbox was what the guys wanted to show me
so as not to appear homophobic
aRRrrrrrr!

in other Britney news, they're going
to crack the internet in half at some point?
WHO MADE THIS DECISION, WHO ARE THEY
they've got to tell the world that too much ass is fine
that whole scene looks so annoying

what plant maintenance do you do ... I'm an American
or am I? I don't know
[funny telemarketer call]
it really disturbs me to listen to lyrics

I hate them and hope they die
that being said, I'm coming over to your house
to get a job as a bus driver
they'll blur out some asscrack

I think you're showing a little too much ass
that is just way too much ass for one person
and I need to check it out
what you gonna do with all of that junk?
it would be better if it was squirrels on a bus

Thinging of You

oops I cant stop thinging of u
made me sad thinging how much

aww but Im ... wuddaappp! LMFAO
yeye me so sad out to the box

what does this mean? Vargon-Ferrets
are all u ever thing of / u dont know

we sometimes says better than duro in this case
depends in which situation are u is

home of the brave is what
this a war zone u see

the war shoved back on just when
I was thinging Paradise Lost ache

wish that the shakes disturbing
but we harld can open our mind

so u have been "thinging"
I always knew u couldnt thing

Im thinging the thong of the thouth!

I miss u kid
I haven't talked to u in forever

Commie Girlfriend

"I dance at a topless club," Tom's girlfriend said copacetically
"excuse me while I step on your face
Adlai-Stevenson-style"
you coming on to me, Myrtle?

a halfling rogue, an old human druid
who doesn't speak much English went totally crazy at some point and
it's off to the races!
anything his hand touches is smeared
he was talking to his MOTHER in Iraq, not his drug dealer
some COMMON SENSE SHOULD HAVE BEEN USED
he lives in freaking France for crissakes
he and his girlfriend love to rattle off foolish crap
"men are all pigs"
"guns should be banned from the world"
"I hate computer games"
it gives me the shivers, like it is a bunch of yakking

I've got the coolest friends
some dirty Irish sausage delivery man
who isn't a redneck and his slanty eyed commie girlfriend named Nada
trains are great
too bad human beings screw them up

men are dirty and bandwidth gums up our garage doors
so we had never seen a napkin and regularly had 2 colas
that's because the Vietnam War was a liberal sissy war
but Lady Macbeth will also do a lapdance for 100 bucks
non-commie homosexuality has to be filled in England for decades
yadda yadda etc.

the Lady Macbeth idea is interesting on paper but
you're automatically a commie despite circumstances
at least the girl that kicked my ass
in 1934 put an end to musical adventures like
"the world would be a better place if people ate more dirt"
goddam commies and their dirt

Old Groping

mommy why tentacle rape
read more about old groping together
and the third world sans Trojan horse
half the tribe over grease removal before long term care

I vote I groped a great deal
and raised oddly when I was unable to sing
unforgivable and immemorial groping
of theatre is the lobby which is other

you're so tentacle rape dedicated to your work
thou hast sold thyself to evil
the awful forums you've done while sleeping
it approximate might cool zoofilia

if Paul cheats on Liz with Susan with both hands
and she knew there was no tentacle rape
also don't get any on slightly she knew
it groped himself in the least stag of the gold chain

she began to moan school violence
with amor we had used since college days when our feats were new
forced to be a sissy that takes Mastercard
to break into a cop's house where it looks like groping for boobs

thereafter the ocean groped me its debt consolidation
part home mortgage calculator
part unwanted office orgasms that nature deeply my buttocks to cry
some other foolish golf equipment nice thanks golf equipment drunk

Tyra Banks getting groped 1
Tyra Banks getting groped 2
Tyra Banks getting groped 3
tentacle rape is just another way of saying hello

and well hey what else was there in 1996?
neither tentacle rape elaborated non-banshee configuration
it had Photoshop and plenty of ram and well hey what
I never wanted for anything I liked its Telnet better

Another Infected Chainsaw*

An incinerated stovepipe ruminates, because
A line dancer pees on a fighter pilot
Defined by an apartment building. A ball
Bearing feels nagging remorse, and
A radioactive buzzard goes to sleep;
However, a feline squid learns a hard
Lesson from a sheriff. Now and then,
The stovepipe related to another demon
Knows a somewhat fashionable cab driver.

The cashier flies into a rage, but another
Bullfrog for the senator barely recognizes
The lazily self-actualized hole puncher.
Quickly. Miles above him. A the dole
Queue at over from space, but they entered.
--Clearer ravines, stare into one
To see his so tense? --Yes, that's what am I?
--Hi. --No, nor why his head's and just fine,
He said. --Hey, come to of time actually here,
I only of that you can do idle whose?
--The cat's own tousled become
President of Antares (an the wind).
As with iron mallets; of I don't.

A hardly most difficult hole puncher,
A mastadon, and the globule
Inside a minivan are what made
America great! Some tuba player
Of a fairy recognizes a cough syrup
Defined by a parking lot, but an anomaly
From a paycheck competes with the cheese
Wheel around the abstraction. A rattlesnake
Ridiculously trades baseball cards
With a Eurasian spider. Furthermore,
Some feline salad dressing meditates,
And a steam engine almost plans
An escape from the spider a grain of sand.

The fire hydrant for a tuba player
Seldom brainwashes a slow cocker spaniel,
Because an ocean over a ball bearing
Steals pencils from a bartender
Toward the buzzard. The shabby pig
Pen slyly cooks cheese grits
For the apartment building over
The cocker spaniel. A grain of sand
Defined by the asteroid trembles,
Because some spider about a cheese wheel
Knows a thoroughly resplendent tomato.

Sometimes the greasy mortician prays,
But a garbage can about another turkey
Always steals pencils from a globule!

Furthermore, a minivan self-flagellates,
And the hypnotic cargo bay competes
With the tuba player.

Biggier Avatars

this is suppose to be the first chapter of a biggier story
I need help with my mollies ASAP
cannot stop laughing at Justin's armpit hair
my boobies are biggier ahaha biggier I'm stoned

I don't want to visit my brother because
when it comes to quantum mechanics somebody is "a blowed-up peckerwood"
I think it would be a good idea to add a watch tower

plus something about the flywheel weighing more
helping it stand up out of corners better
in which you don't have to squint
to see the future for biggier hurricanes

the crusades where just bad ex-uses for the European kings
and the soldiers raped and plundered for a good cause
in number terms alone often biggier then many others
then difficult but to me doesn't mean he/she will be the fish head maybe

I needed to raise the car due to the fact that
aircraft fusaldge is made out of aluminum mostly
the biggier its the more it costs
and like I said before there dickhorn we got biggier fish to fry then some

stick in this slot and stick in that slot
is that purple slot special?
any biggier and it's just silly ok
maybe more puppy dogs would help with biggier sadder eyes?

I think REM would have and did back off for Pink Floyd
one of my biggier females are in but I'm still not even sure if she's pregnant or not
no YOU go eat something
after I couldn't button up my jeans I just freaked out

Fascist Poem

Edward is possibly at home
reading his favorite poem
"God Bless Mrs Donald"
it's the most beautiful, wise, philosophical poem
others just think it's an inept horror film

I think he is an extremely confused man
who has been taken in by that poem
the key issue here is not literary merit
I do not believe that the poem
will be a horrid little abortion

while the obvious slant to this poem is a feminist one
it can also be interpreted as fascist
and it's good you didn't read that
it would have fascistized you faster
than you could say "Callooh! Callay!"

these are the moments when
the authoritarian modernists come to terms
with the dominance of the letter "I"
first they came for the communists
one day they'll be coming after poets on stilts

All Fours

remember they walk on all fours and can be found
beyond our horse of the old style
we've got to show them
the "dress code"

but not the police he caught his breath
as he saw his man through the tunnel
grow smaller in the distance
ripping until a plank or stick was left

whose holes throughout
the franchise lie flattish
and curved elegantly into the cup
last year keeping alive

some of the best craftwork comes out
of the trinity of dogs
in the middle of the rue
I I'm a aardvark

he darn well broke it
from a 2D snapshot he swept
from the 5 Kentuckians
sexually active shoplifting eyeholes

through the ruins
often loping ahead
to tell bullwhip inmates
were served bread and ersatz
