puke is honing all our guild-ing mouths
river-lettings of cautionary yellowing
soupingly entangling with chunks of
scarlet red hollaring audacious bubblings
running on flooding all the soggy moulds
and rhythmating knolls’n’holes’n’souls
where we’re all just runn’n on here wait’n
imploding echoes are snoring in the belly
of all our rapaciously ajudicating verdicts
our fawning marble-ling institutions
and their yawning substitutions
and common disdaining ablutionings
are desperately devouring each other
for one another’s cracked cup
of some noma-nating brew
on and on and on and on
and always we acting like
this is something brand new
down’n is up’n and up’n is down’n
and moving all arounding
being here is being there
‘cause it’s all every where
thinking that’s it
when just maybe it aint
but it aint got not to be it
down’n is up’n and up’n is down’n
and moving all arounding
being here is being there
‘cause it’s all every where
eyes still try’n to be look’n down
from a here that’s there some where
so unaware pretending they care
when there’s no such thing as where
down’n is up’n and up’n is down’n
and moving all arounding
being here is being there
‘cause it’s all every where
‘spose i just gon’n’dare that
i’m in a here some where
got my phone
with the camera turned on
so there’s some kinda knowing
that i’m a here some where
down’n is up’n and up’n is down’n
and moving all arounding
being here is being there
‘cause it’s all every where
just a shadow of doubt
this what it be all about
don’t wanna find out that
i don’t wanna find out
down’n is up’n and up’n is down’n
and moving all arounding
being here is being there
‘cause it’s all every where
afflictionating in addicting afflictionationings
trying to paying no never never mindings
kicking ourselves here dead in the ass
like it’s just another hole in the grounding
arrogating in surrogating prevaricationings
that there’s never no blood in bleeding
‘cause every body they got to be knowing
there just aint no such’a thing
we orgasming in the salavating spray
of our lecherous asining gloating
spandexing flabby norms
for copy-cat-ing worn illusionationings
so posterizing fantasizings
dissolving on in teasing porn forms it is what it isso what the hell is it is promenading virgin whores
and diacritically ambivalenting hordes
who circling ‘round ‘n’round ‘n’round
all arounding right here in our heads
making more’n’more themms like us
stumbling and wandering blindly on
every where swallowing disclaiming
nervously portensively proclaiming “♪this aint nothing but justa thang it aint no shot but justa bang close your eyes keep-on run’n alone and holding on to the potion of just holding on !!!AND THEN POOF!!! it gon all be gone♪”
our burnishings and garnishings
are tarnishing most all every thing
and we’re just varnishing pains
through which we are wantonly staring
slumbering plunderinged morsel-lings
grabbing after gaudily painted what-nots
on dangling spangling bangling tables
over which we’re supposed to be caring
hoping they might swell-us-all-up
into sparkling little care-not-whats
they’re casting torn worn nets poured full
of porning midnight dancing shadowings
luring in patented promisory distortionings
of moldy-ing municipal adulterationings
loitering in jading charms of fading pastels
through which we’re militarily trompling on
patriotically flossing at bothersome notions
our prancing toothpic-ings are dis-sing
of a whom we’re always wanting
just ever barely barely only
always a little lessening
and never not so far
. . . contentiously just measuring each other
putting one up against another
and we’re doing this so it’s seeming
and sounding just like we’re grounding
in this gripping crippling oppositioning
serpentining here crawling all around
on down in our bellies up under the neath
a subtling nourishing addicting bequeathing
of nat-u-ral born contrasting-ings
breeding lethal social conflictionings
slithering on and dastardly flaunting
drowning us all in our ratiocinating
in this ra-ti-o-ci-na-tion-ning foam
see how short’s exposing tall
as large does so for small
and nothing next to all
up’s requiring a down
as here does all around
good and bad and glad and sad
needing one another just to be had
like weak and strong so fear be grown
contentiously all we’re doing
is here just measuring each other
by putting one up against another
and we’re doing this so it’s seeming
and sounding just like we’re grounding
in this gripping crippling oppositioning
serpentining in here crawling all around
swirling down ‘round ‘n ‘round
on down in our bellies all up under the neath
a subtling nourishing addicting bequeathing
of nat-u-ral born contrasting-ings
breeding lethal social conflictionings
slithering on and dastardly flaunting
drowning us all in our ratiocinating
in this ra-ti-o-ci-na-tion-ning foam

in a slow low mo’ humping sound
some where-ing-duh in’us head
turning over’n’over in a masturbating rhyme
syncopating marching to a synthesizing time
in a slow low mo’ humping sound
formed us warm born delta brown’s
hardly wandering ‘round amongst’us
found here and there bound
way down underground
in a slow low mo’ humping sound
some where-ing-duh in’us head
turning over’n’over in a masturbating rhyme
syncopating marching to a synthesizing time
in a slow low mo’ humping sound
us strangers here staring
running out at us selves
crashing on into on into one another
scattering on narrowing dirt paths
in a slow low mo’ humping sound
some where-ing-duh in’us head
turning over’n’over in a masturbating rhyme
syncopating marching to a synthesizing time
in a slow low mo’ humping sound
in a slow low mo’ humping sound

drowning on in themm’d themmings (ensconcing inside this blurring obscuring)
them themms keep on themming mo’ themms
who strutting on out the mouth of this womb
pompously adorning their anxious disdaining
of oracular warning of proverbial sins
they perpetrating with themm’d themms they
offering when to themm covetting themms
who callously moulding and coldly pouring on
through vicariousing veins of other themms
social matrixationing so for libating our thrones
themms fenestrating venderers jes like themm’ds
run’n scared trying to hide from what them too
pandering vitiating hustlers as heroic themms
who blowing slow low mo’ mo’ humping sounds
resounding in the holds of emptying arms
whining bags fulling on pretensifying mimes
self-cowarding pawns so prostrating in place
‘fore rusing algorithming pixillated rhymes
pervert’n on in the blues like themm’d themms
just surling swirling desperating redoundings
as this ever deepening invasive fingering
is enthralling us deeper on here inside
of our own swallow’n invisiblizing
swaggerly staggering arm-in-arm
invisiblizinglying invisiblizing
babbling mesmerizing mesmerizers
so ’cause all we all is just themms
with in this what we’re calling space never see’n all it’s boundless face why are we plotting our own disgrace to leave somehow a visible trace i’m scared of all that’s unknown

the blues keep feeding in the rhythm (what is this upon my heart it make me burn inside this dark)
bags
these veined dark hands they shrivelling
in the hungry plundering
of her old crooked fingers
her shopping cart loaded it full
of rescued things
tied up in the arms
of her many little strings
silver aged trolley whose shine done gone
mumbling words grumbling ‘round
in thick lipped jaws wit snuff dripping down
‘neath the smile smothered there
in the still abandoned yearning
of her tird brown eyes
her losing what her finding
in the belly of this night
‘cause the wheels wobbling ‘round
us bumping here ‘gainst the ground
her squat’n there by herself
nobody somewhere
big wide bottom hips fart’n bare
for all those flies they hurrying there
looking on they going pretending no care
swallowing the syrupy spell
of this vulgar smell
slobbering mouths their hands dripping full
holding our breath
while her moving her bowels
the blues keep feeding in the rhythm (what is this upon my heart it make me burn inside this dark)
the grave
this armless night is swollen in silence
and sudden echoes of broken glass
muffled in lowly mumblings
of drunken body screams
twisted dark faces surrender
frozen in the pain of having to breathe
and no one is ever here or even near
the ears are closed for all to hear
eyes they stare and on they stare
always there at what they stare
the blues keep feeding in the rhythm (what is this upon my heart it make me burn inside this dark)
ghosts
the echoes of what there used to be
and the tease of those smells they bother me
dusty toes dressed in calloused corns
stomping and praying on dirt pourd floors
and them hands dark hands they clapping hands
here juke joint druming in rebok shoes
shadows of fires and fat blow flies
syrup they knots tied here in my head
the taste of things they holding me still
they keep on coming here humming
and drinking my time
