Text of the page (random words):
zone is when you re trapped inside it it never seems to end joe haferbecker two poems sprawled like stars when sprawled like stars the stars themselves in milky light recall the specs they rounded up those years ago that told them shine and time to time twinkle hard those stars go on to bright real strong hunker down be real stars then for some there s a recollection when knowing deep their specs as stars they begin to entertain things whispered at twilight about falling called shooting about being total star rankling the known they look left and look right aim a tired awe at the gossamer expanse and fling themselves past the edge of what is held pin prick run let the breath catch let the will unravel spun far afield drag us scraping and bawling from ourselves gouge the heavens and call us to task the sportsman the sportsman was hamstrung bungled blinds and tangled makings of snares and sundry entrapments fully undone what conquest what dominant maneuver now is flummoxed in the wake of broken ploys the sportsman wonders what becomes of pursuit upended the chasing s all chased out the sport is up and all that s left is the man he mutters plumbed memories into the landscape rakes the known with the busted known renders older stories stock but sturdy trustworthy the sportsman shimmers something stuck shifts a husk uncouples leaving bare the right angles where the sinews meet the will like the angular serifs in a typeset spelling out the deeps by touch and touch and flinch now each year as limping seasons sell bootlegged ambitions to the easily duped the sportsman moves about the gloaming his response blooming fragrant as bourgeoning in a narrow space worn true with shed intentions cold remnants renegade longings loosed into the wild carlos reyes two poems graffiti high stone walls and iron gates assaulted only by bold graffiti words writ large as though they could topple these centuries old walls or regimes they shout to the world often in secret hidden away man s last squeak a pitiful exercise in the freedom to speak left in tunnels under dark rail overpasses in sightless alleys in cul de sacs buried election propaganda fading political slogans to save us votez therese hasta la victoria siempre here the revolution begins with words incised in the blindness of a prison cell even on the wall behind the last man standing in front of the always fresh and ready aim firing squad words one long sentence through moorless night we drift in darkness holding our breath waiting for the saving bump that tells us we have gone aground on the shore of some unwelcome undiscovered island creased the perilous reef just under the surface or our keel has sliced the dark rubbery back of some behemoth rising suddenly beneath us tucker stilley got a little something something for ya an unpublished steaming new collection it s a sort of theosophist heaven and prettied up version of the welsh annwn or the tibetan bardo anyway it s a bitter little distillation all for you written on a tobii eyetracker between 2012 2016 summerland california king i m over you like the sky blanketscape and dust mites sniff the nervous dusk sun going down behind my knees now i ve painted the view behind ernest s typewriter take it this majestic misfolded legend from which life some mangled odalisque stares out with servants trapped in amber hit me one time cokenail sundial by the broken moon and a cats brown skull cap my greatest fear a leathery inter dimensional parasite is wrapping parallel paralyzed me lamprey mouth locked on mind upside down kite fright these are the last days air tite but that s alright i ll be growing a cokenail namastã motherfucker i ve got a long way to go till it clearly gives the time of day dying in public buried in my town car shame dances the dirt edge with a rattle of dried pride mad props like a dictator so embarrassing exit stage starboard axiomatik the aphorisms come building up like stop action lego armor first around the feet i kick them off but by morning they re back sit down and shut up make more lemonade i took the road less traveled like everybody else full length self portrait reversing flipping you come filling space with noise an overwound hourglass sped up almost transparent spinning around its core searching empty hunting its own signal finding nothing a jamming station slurring feedback stuttering rising connecting imaginary conversationing leaping quickly over dangerous chasms in plot and my words permanently encased in italics bracketed waiting for a modifier float not so gentle in front of my ears please please don t shit in my head i ran into poetry i ran into poetry the other day after an interval of several decades time had been kind i have to say i had liked the looks of poetry right away but one thing i had forgotten she never would shut up first thought first thought clever i ll give you that yeah that s good like a respected but simile addled poet who s kinda showing off engaged in metaphor drift when suddenly again we wanted the skeleton of the perfect layup but we re getting every path that anyone has ever taken it fills the step up to a solid corona of description i will be i will not cry for maple anymore or aspen but i will appear pink in the fading light and in the morning spiral like a pine cone and blow mist over the southern face and hold up tiny birds as they please and curl in the dark whorlpools that fill the trees at moonrise in a valhalla the bear faery drinks patiently picking rocks here s how it s done you walk to the end of the coldankled iron hard dirt head down if you see a stone nestled in it s shrunken ill fitting pocket of earth you re gonna probly need a hammer to pry it out you re gonna grab it and just huck it slanting just under the dead sky to join the wall of rocks that is twenty times your age revlon rabbit we need the stinging blur to shout eureka and i with the saucer sized eyes i think i want to die can we agree here s a hint we thought you looked fine could you help me with my eyes please once you ve seen the truth there s really nothing else yeah it itches you could say my foot is headed for the giftshop dance dance grad students i want to see x subcommander z what happened i m subcommander z sorry man at your command would you have rather well i can travel each fork in the tongue unspill the clockwork unring that phone maybe unravel every knot we ve ever rung high on a probability hill at the bottom of a gravity well i don t feel particularly anthropic test bed here i lie in the bed that i have made of shit and plastic tubing it s quite a bed it s procrustean sure and adjustable to become smaller i think its overhanging monitor has got me by the face torturer i have been in the room against my will underground and naked lightbulb lit i have been in the room wave etiquette you do not turn your back on the wave you do not look away for one last glance at the clouds you do not become hypnotized by the surface you then run to meet it x ray dance maybe maybe it s because the shot is taken lying on its side and from a heroic low angle the muted earth tones of office plastic frank tunic gear con pouch ballistic nylon soft soft soft voice so far away x ray dance x ray dance superimposed superimposed i m double exposed my perfectly private hi tech ballet with multi axis nesting rectangles and hairy animals in green scrubs and masks great expense has been taken to learn how these beasts can perform this dance with this goddess the trio moves wing and wing murmuring men he is conscious of us don t forget your moves and 1 and 2 and 3 and 3 and 4 and 5 good hold on not so fast tilt 20 degrees x 2 degrees y activate the ray remember what you re doing where are your feet norman coordinate activate the wiggulator ok fold up half turn very good boys want a banana i bet you do only two more rooms watch out for the doorframe your high ness your highness i d better close the windows for you it s late and the bats are about shedding their red blue stereoscopic strobes indiscriminately about the room i ll call the spanish jack your highness to come and fill your empty core you ll sleep and tumble backwards through the dark the homeostatic dark your highness if i may be frank if i am to speak plainly you are a hydrocodone abuser your auspicious synchronicity is unfounded your motives derived from the rules of some splinter universe to continue oh most high and ultra elevated redacted in conclusion what can i these miles below you offer it s warm down here and we have almost as much light there re not so many karma showers punching through time runs slower in the pocket you can almost be almost all you can almost be dekon straktiv izt short sentences
