\n\u00a0A Kosmogony<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

intensity outstretched to explosibility<\/p>\n

comes full circle into the incipit<\/p>\n

of fire begging to be kindled<\/p>\n

out of the initial spark<\/p>\n

which the unstruck match,<\/p>\n

as yet untouched by phosphorous or hand,<\/p>\n

barely molecularly contains<\/p>\n

or, rather, is liminally tainted with\u2014<\/p>\n

only when the kosmos-producing fire,<\/p>\n

be it in whatever state of combustion,<\/p>\n

rids itself of the kosmos which it has produced\u2014<\/p>\n

or, even more radically so,<\/p>\n

only when the said kosmos<\/p>\n

goes full circle into the complete disappearance of it,<\/p>\n

which is to be done massively purgatorially.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00a0Dying Is Living<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I wish dying would just go on forever<\/p>\n

for, if it did, death would never come<\/p>\n

and I would get to be a dying immortal<\/p>\n

finally in the capacity to understand<\/p>\n

that dying is actually living.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Irrepeatabilities<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

transfiguration<\/p>\n

of the nuances of the ideas of the things of the minds<\/p>\n

with which I wrestle<\/p>\n

is not some subtle fight for the supremacy<\/p>\n

of these minds of these things of these ideas of these nuances<\/p>\n

but an explosion of almost prosodic sophistry<\/p>\n

which accompanies, distrustfully, what I perceive<\/p>\n

of the nuances of the ideas of the things of the minds<\/p>\n

with an irrepressibly repressible bent on<\/p>\n

irrepeatabilities<\/p>\n

of these minds of these things of these ideas of these nuances\u2026<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Lapidary Armageddon<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I catch a catastrophe.<\/p>\n

I throw it at the stars.<\/p>\n

They take it in<\/p>\n

Apocalyptically.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00a0What Religion Is to Me<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

the sky in the belfry<\/p>\n

is taken captive<\/p>\n

by the god serving underneath its<\/p>\n

steepled silhouette<\/p>\n

towering against what<\/p>\n

should all along have been<\/p>\n

the free sky<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
