Written (in the stars): our animal impulses,
but we are learning to cope with them. Ages 28 to
35. The Body In Full Bloom, a swimmer fully reclined
in death or ecstasy.
Another swimmer underwater, fully submerged
upside down. The Blues’
shadow eyes seeing through a death mask,
perhaps the face of God.
nabokov im ready to become a floweret,
bruleed grapefruit, how much does kendall
jenner weigh, house made of mammoth
bones, Nearly Wild. WHEN YOU ARE LOST
ADMIT IT AND ASK FOR DIRECTIONS.
A cowboy somewhere loves me. Secret sign looking
out. It’s in our favorite place,
I’m looking out too, reaching at the window. I need
healing.
Midnight Blue. can you be a monk if you have debt,
can you be a monk if you have student loa??
cheesecake nuns, how to be a hermit,
how to join a monastery.
What are you up to?
Looking at picture of the publix water tower
in the shape of a cake. Standing in the alley looking
at the cross.
Caesar’s Palace goddess looking at me, me looking
through cowboys back at her,
candle looking at itself. Pure darkness/car
window looking out into the desert.
