lyrics

A pair of Wings
A pair of Wings
Crash
High winds of Karma
Sirens
Laughter & young voices
in the mts.
Saints
the Negro, Africa
Tattoo
eyes like time
Build temporary habitations, games
& chambers, play there, hide.
First man stood, shifting stance
while germs of sight
unfurl’d Flags in his skull
and quickening, hair, nails, skin
turned slowly, whirl’d, in
the warm aquarium, warm
wheel turning.
Cave fish, eels, & gray salamanders
turn in their night career of sleep.
The idea of vision escapes
the animal worm whose earth
is an ocean, whose eye is its body.
The theory is that birth is prompted
by the child’s desire to leave the womb.
But in the photograph an unborn horse’s
neck strains inward w / legs scooped out.
From this everything follows:
Swallow milk at the breast
until there’s no milk.
Squeeze wealth at the rim
until tile pools claim it.
He swallows seed, his pride
until w / pale mouth legs
she sucks the root, dreading
world to devour child.
Doesn’t the ground swallow me
when I die, or the sea
if I die at sea?
