last night i drempt today
id ;lose my teeth at th wave pools wit dad
& inc ase i couldn’t talk i <embarrassed
mycel>f admitting terror or fetish to porcelain/
bathroom sink vortex & charcoal toofpaste tube,
fora lil feelin /clung atmy brow:
the dream hangova
keep me’s closeby to its will , &witTH carwash vision toys
wit the thinnesz of sure mirror & roof plaster, spunning
me back to wehre
we trickd us awake’ from, & the
walls are animated with faces
(i haven t seen a in long times , again. “i am found by
— msyelf saying at the kid of me
‘call me as u are,
’away with the noise jazz improv>ed by my set-dresser, that
plays i as fuzz in mostevery nap hour
.y e s i a m caught with
the twirlin of the worlds that sought me out
out of place, outta body halfremembring
hair or wild grass biting underfoor . & from cloud grotto,, taken
aback like candid kindsa love rs
first doze.
“drift infru the night drain“lick blues
“Som timestill i scream aaaa
loud alone whil drivin thru
go(o)(d) night canal.
