Turning

Posted in poems, tagged , on May 16, 2012| Leave a Comment »

People are moving towards another and an

other; towards a re-awakening delight.

           

            Using techniques of the automatic; I can say:

            this is as beautiful as chance.

 

Think of the reclining nude as traditional

as reinventing light                 through ligaments        

through flesh.

 

*

 

We fasten our inners to our outers; outers to our inters all to

enter the electrified common room of common life. (leave your

shoes at the door).

 

                                                           

We are:

                                                                our bodies

our meetings

our minds

our hits

our counts

our printings

our data

our art

our thoughts

our gestures

our need

our need

our need

 

 

Our need

Luster

Posted in poems, tagged , , on May 7, 2012| Leave a Comment »

Luster,

came away in one of those not-so ways& I want that Luster, here.   Back. Keep your handling to your hands.  You’ll mind me if I want you to  mind me & I don’t want your minding   … now                                                      or….yet…. 

If I say it won’t be, do  you think that it won’t be because I say it that it won’t be because I am a Lady? I can be all close-like,

 all wet-legged  & bellering.   (& is that luster coming away or my way?) because I’m not one of those women but I can stand the things I can stand & I’m trying to whet this. I’m not saying it’s not puzzling, but I can go where I want. No one’s got me.  I’ve got it all inside this, here. I am playing my instrument & recording every tune.
