enrobed in their
stiff distinction suits
rainbow coloured badges 
pinned to their lapels
they beat their breasts

thinking they are free-willed
and...

Humble came flying through the trees,
After the evil Blues-Bee,
And Humble could see Bee Bee up ahead,
Beeing chased by their enemy.


Humble was trying to dodge the Blues-Bees fleas,
As they...

Traveling through these great lands of ours

Places visited or lived in, diverse, memorable
Many messages I received...

As did so many that passed before me
Passing through each wilderness
Learning new steps to take.

Remember I know you,
you're not innocent,
you're not returning back to innocence.

Even with dirt on your hands,
a bad seed doesn't grow anything,
a rotten tomato will never be eaten.

Tonight the act of naming fell through the floor.
We speak permeable solids inflect’d by light.
Things move indistinctly: a pine palette floats
momentarily from semi truck’s bed, crosses
its body with windshield; ovidian shift from a

When I heard it will fall in the sixties.
Then dad said we’ll soon be losing degrees;
To me these things sounded like tragedies.

Continued for hours without count.

A shaded and ghostly shape,
With cobwebbed...
