sound ritual number eight

stars twitch, rattle from

the futile anemic sky.

switch off the scratch'd

moon in the pooled liver,

sour favor of the botched

tars witch, battle from

inutile asemic thigh.

hitch off the ratchet

spoon mulled river,

flour savor of the notch

arse itch, twaddle not

the ant hill, pansemia nigh

rich off racket from scratch,

tune in the lone survivor,

our saviour's flavor of the catch

sparse niche

wading knots

thanatos pill

pansemic high school

rich golf

pocket form scats

tone in the lune

surf visor

our wavicle's labor

in the batch

​sound ritual number ten

ten reduces to one-

burnt orange fall &   ten lady

bugs coagulate like so much blood

fat in the high corners of the workroom

mostly red    they soon

fall,       they drip blood

ten reduced to one

​multicavity klystron ​   a typical

hot-cathode thyratron    ​resonant

cavity magnetron    ​Puerto Rico

abandoned without power    ​rain is

a postcard from god    the ​hurricane

unearthed ancestral artifacts of the

​extinct Calusa tribe  shell indians

shellslady bugs       shells as home:

Puerto Rico

if we could be

reduced to one

we would get it

​sitting at my desk

staring through

my reflection

at the backyard

beside the alley

it is 8:13 p.m.

and one poem leads to another
