I look back on words and I don’t know them.

I burn and am reborn to burn again,
Immolate
Self-violate
Return.

Pieces of glory ll
We come
To the enchanted forest to find it is a pig-sty.

Pieces of glory

We fold, unfold and re-fold our memories expecting them to become more true.

The Black Pixels Out and Away

Some of us learn from love, others from beatings.

The barroom, the pub, the tavern, the bar, I used to hide in these places. I can’t say that I don’t miss them.

The Train Whistles in My Dreams

Tease of working and watching near the railroad track, seeing the freight and people disappear into the night.

Dancing with the underlings.
Years and years underground, out in the street, running for my life.

Words I’ve never spoken:

I’m in a bad mood today.
Don’t you know I can’t understand you when you’re like this?
I don’t speak Spanish.
Please tell me what you want.

The size and shape of the world is gone, retreated somewhere
Deep in my skull
I look into the mirror and
See no reflection.

I used to escape in the night to write forbidden poems in the winter air. I always caught hell, but it was worth it.

Retreat (silence) Retreat

Is there a way we can know ourselves through experience?

Normalize speaking in a series of paragraphs, and hearing a full story before answering. Normalize answering.

The dishes are not done. Some thing awaits, unfinished. It is the key to a lock that you didn’t know existed.
