Vaporous Desires

February 3, 1993

 

 

I.
Overdriven foldouts reek
news stand poison
Charlie and Georgio demolish desire

Message Rings of Benzene:
One molecule in a barn of air
meets its target
Certain as Aphrodite's glance
Manifest destiny

Chemical desire
Molecular parsimony

II.

She holds herself tall like this:
Imagine a thread to the star
chin up
heels wedged
up
small of back, soft C
Venusian mound
alert
sentinals
Guard the vessel of life's longing
For itself
Breasts break for the light
Vanilla custard, delight wiggling
behind the beat
Circles in my mind
signal moist lips tongue

III.
Profumo
Tuberous smells
Earth black carved moist
steel arrowheads
Puncture
frozen winter death
Spread
Soft moist richly moist delicious moist juicy slippery

Darklight beginnings
Felt there
