WHITE

March 14, 2010 12:00AM

water pouring bright as raised circuits,
river scars, fainting legs,
groggy ponds, looping gruel,
knapsack gargle, lapping of sky-love,
sky-drain, gutter-swirl.

those eyes are full of
grain and boards
warped, whiskey creaking,
glommed-mopped locks,
stranded whirls,
rivets of green, glittering lures–bright
circuit-blinking-iris
stars.

knock, creak, breathe.

night as draining cotton, enter the door, a
mob of wrinkled spices,
laryngitis candle, warmth sings and you
a scarlet harbor, painted crepe,
gilded-jasmine wren.

there–fibrilated eye-space,
nailed flutter–A to B–
chest rising falling
flame drains, wanes–
WHITE.

clouds continue to preen,
–sequestered whining sky–
our ears hear nothing.
