Turbulence

A night out with mosquitoes      for a sharp
comment of urgency      to end the war after a decapitated
unnamed flesh of words    found six inches short
I can write only poems     This very ordinary life appears
to be worthless

without vocabulary     unsemantic  between us   I am
enslaved alive    going beyond the stings in my
heart     I try to find my voice burning inside    a never
gone pain     do you hear me    I am very lonely in the 
jungle of falls     Am I descending

infarcts are spreading    the paresis    inability
to raise the finger    fear of manuscript   I am
never   was there in cloudless desert   the starless
night   moonless sky   it is very dark    Out 
of emptiness comes an explosion   Is it     a new creation
