clamped between the harsh concrete jaws
of road and sky.
i am a thousand miles away, lost in some champagne desert,
all peyote and sunshine and bitter confusion.

set into frowning, crackled molds
are hovering like marionettes on invisible wire over the sky-painted streets.
the bus stops are filled with smoke, magician's disappearing acts
which leave only ashes
and transparent ghosts of words on flaking benches.
the sour taste of cold metal keys
at the back of everybody's throats;
the spark of dying bulbs as they flicker like dim signals of distress over oil-steeped water.
girls in plaid and steel observe the stars
melting into dawn like mints under their own tongues,

Church on WhiteMary The moment that the world started to turn was on my seventeenth birthday at approximately 6.43 pm. At that time, Andy Hunter and I were sitting on the purple frilled covers that were on top of my queen sized bed my mother had bought for me, holding hands while the music my mother insisted on playing at my birthday party drifted up the stairways towards us. He leaned in to kiss me and I just stayed there, letting him do all the work and when it was over I felt dizzy. I mean, I know the earth is constantly turning in our big black galaxy, but the truth is Ive never really noticed it happening until that exactChurch on White

A Deep Thought: Of all my relatives, my friends and I most liked "Uncle Caveman." We called him this because he lived in a cave, and sometimes, he'd eat one of us. Later on, we found out he was a bear.
