Month: November 2017

underlying patapsco

floating in the streets on the water
a time mirage
the beginning of value trust exploitation
winds earthfired and solar sweep across
chappedsmooth hands dangle and grasp from walking torsosleeves
their notions predatory desperate seek dissipating warm glow
rocks that burn
pieces of stars
promises
molded earth
minted metal
words that echo in dopamine
calculated payments
breathing dying debtors to the sun

church window at sunrise
(alex brown and sons, the baltimore-based first investment bank in the united states, was sold to bankers trust in 1997 and absorbed into deutsche bank two years later—brown memorial park avenue presbyterian church on park avenue and lafayette streets memorializes george, alexander’s son)

cirrostratus flyover

why am i in a jetplane bombs dropping
buffeted on updraft of ghosts from the fields
wings genteel rolling stolen beats
land far below golden remote
birdover cloudocean doors soaring
explosives infraready jewels to confetti
magic aluminum jeta spoiling sunshine and rain
speed bending flying stars into time
gliding near world top in heaven trip
tender joystick down through whirl wind
mind state perfect military tweaking vision
making money right
because i like my killing washed and clean

school at sunrise
(killuminati: the 7 day theory was released posthumously in 1996–tupac shakur began recording in 1987 while attending the school for the arts)

really big show

singing strutters drift in from deep ocean
whistling stomping
squealing plucking
barking blowing
chuckling serenading
wailing swirling
in blue orange black white
gathered separate focused diffused
sculpting color
windows doors poles trees cars cobbles frame
water flowing exploded fading
shops steps
assembling arranging
out of unseen sayers seers
neighboring culturing
pause
play
flying in timelight

fell street at sunrise
(the creative alliance started out as the fells point creative alliance from margaret footner’s café on fell street in 1995)

noplace

rescued superfluidities
coursing through shared pipes stopping combined gloria conservation mass
blistering superchilled chemicals proud and seething
defying the simple air surrounding
lording atoms
great continuance uncommoded
serene industrial sharing
shall congregate and mingle in fellowship
letting a long beautiful utopian scream

caol pier at sunrise
(in 1995 the fairfield peninsula was designated an ecological industrial park, and industrial symbiosis spontaneously and completely transformed the city, region, and state)

brown to bright

sun light thru simple path
objectively condensing
immersing in salty nitrogen oxide smog
soaring intrinsic rainbows
living cells absorb and illuminate
radiating color buzzing art and industry
saturating dull forgotten fields
in slow steady streaking detox

brownfield at sunrise
(in 1995 twelve sites on the fairfield peninsula were reclassified from superfund sites to brownfields, creating an opportunity for redevelopment grants the city never managed to use to transform its long history of abusive jurisdiction—as it now fails to seize the opportunity to use brownfields and, in cooperation with the port administration, collocated port facilities to provide clean, sustainable, just power to the entire state of maryland)

mountains of freak

i thought they might stay but they didn’t
fortytrillion oxygenflowers suddenly exploding
shards roaring through me
burning me toward sun
laughingsuffering vaporized
sinking floating swirling
theyrwithme iamwiththem
remaking painjoy in lonely

time

space

touch and touch deeply thems you love

and that will be that

from mount freaky deaky at sunrise
(from some places in some cities you can see a thousand years)
