Eden, Then and Now
... My father worked for the daily paper ...
The Question
... The odors rise against one another, ...
Another Feeling
... After they took him, you began to suffer regret ...
1941
... in the arms of my total happiness ...
Look to the Future
... at the heart of light we are crushed together ...
It Follows
... that theyve taken from dead babies gums ...
The Wound
... of the face, something the throat wanted to say ...
Speculation
... The wits Of countless centuries dry in my skull and overhead ...
Genesis
... when we came together in the envelopes of ourselves, ...
The Mother
... Run children, run, the light grows dull, ...
Overnight Guest
... it will wave at younaive, apologetic, embarrassed ...
The Pear
... For that sweet suck the hornet whines his wits, ...
Shapes
... However, its that having lived, it matters ...
Peripheries
... Where cherubs hang, then slides toward spinning earth ...
Romance
... like your lips, slipping over words already said ...
