Looking For the Traces of Vanished LightHe searches in the shady sides,
traces of vanished light,
a drift of the felt,
all of nuances and transitions.

idly reverberated (Billy me) rebel yell,

Asides Within a Last BreathThree lying deacons
swim in a handbag -
and a lone, celibate pastor
paces longingly bemused.
Michael, the Arc Angel,
poses silently,
in dusty Gabbana drag,
cursing the lipstick-painted laymen
writhing in rancid attar -

Four wide-eyed boys...

Which fail to light and wrap up
Enthusiasm in partners
Who feel our coquettish cup
Rains no brainers
That subtract sustenance and...

The Music StopsThe jaws sing
As the drip, drip, drip,
Of the petroleum chorus

Of summer
Or the fragrance she wore
For that final...
