I am listening to pachelbel
I heard it in the movies
it is a canon
in D major
my two hands
are lemured
dear world & everyone
in it it is broken
in 99 places
Farley’s Biscuit versus
Farley’s Rusk
I’m writing a country song
when you pause
the carriage
is silent
STILL CRAZY
mind the gap
between the train
and the platform
anonymous
on the Ides of March in the graveyard she told me to eat crisps
after
smoking we ate old fashioned donuts with Infinite Jest I heart your lemur hot possips & floaters something there is that loves lemurs Bridget Lemur got married Bridget Lemur is happy to be home Bridget Lemur needs a vacation Bridget Lemur is glutton free with Edward Albee I want you Bridget Lemur with your racist gums vous fumez
comme une fleur now it is Dmitri waltz number two
ON THE TRAIN TO TORQUAY SITTING BACKWARDS
or I’ll drown
said my lemur
pulling a fish
into a tree
not older not younger
the lemur in the tunnel
might be my lover
beautiful and Hellenic
anyone anywhere love
existence is futile
but also good
livin on milk duds
& poetic justice
I’m tired
of this poem
but want to give you
everything
shoplifting
at Whole Foods there were sparks under my shoes lemur dreams excite me on the
circle line with Pussy Riot and The Raincoats when it’s morning it’s afternoon
in my brightly colored balaclava daydream nation and bored walks in Hyde Park
Cameron and
the jackals saint KGB the big dream my ass two cats two gerbils and a pound which ones are decent which will knock you up for next to nothing inside my head my dog’s a bear a meat eating liberal a homeless hamster & many other problems my name is hush puppy
and
I live with my daddy in the bathtub the jackals saint KGB the big dream my ass two cats two gerbils and a pound which ones are decent which will knock you up for next to nothing inside my head my dog’s a bear a meat eating liberal a homeless hamster & many other problems my name is hush puppy
ON
THE TRAIN TO EXETER SITTING BACKWARDS
sitting
on an egg
timer
I’m the last
of the Korean
lemurs
seeming so
Zen
this is a sonata
for spoiling eyes
cluck cluck cluck
there are crumbs
on my tongue
a week of metallic
throat
stroll past
All Souls
here there
everywhere
pre-chewed
gum balls
in the gardens
of Nero
hairs in the nose
grab debris
I want to be
adored now
ON
THE TRAIN FROM EXETER SITTING FORWARDS
at
the academy of performing arts I bake bread I hear America slinging
no
baby rice I didn’t add baby rice should I add baby rice I should be adding baby rice a year with night and other animals I’m telling you everything
it’s my turn to walk the lemur
ON A TRAIN TO READING SITTING BACKWARDS
floating
around
in
soiled linenmy nails too short
to peel onions
I wanted to
impress the pirate
girl with my kissing
thought ability
to hang upside
down & give her
a blowjob
like the hanged
man in a tarot deck
my hump my hump
my lovely lady lumps
if you paint a person
with house paint
they will live
if you don’t paint
the bottom
of their feet
ON A TRAIN FROM READING SITTING FORWARDS
today’s
morning lesson
is
on birds layers of fat
wrap heavenly organs
sexy people
make me feel
sexy shuffles
in power suits
in high heels
double dragging
on the way
to the office
the princess of the PEA
or the princess of Sparty LEE
she is giving me the WUMPS
daddy lemur has been eating
my porridge
three piggies are eating
my porridge
everyone is eating
my porridge
you know what I mean
I need a new porridge
so no one will eat it
how much is that Lemur
in the window
is he for free
or will he eat me
and that’s how this day goes
