Poet Introduction
i am everybody's stranger
Blood Cellular Transmisssions To A 'Velvet Nymph'
I'm a landlubber, Skyhawk!
Satellite! Avast ye, satellite!
We disconnected before connection!
Nephelococcygia has always been a science
for drowning pirates.
But what are sinking vesselmen to do?
Siphon the marine tank?
Put the fuel oil into a decanter?
Add these words, crumpled,
stuffed down the bottle mouth?
Into the neck?
Light it?
Throw it towards the first black osprey
tufted fabric rose
of liquid crystals
seen in the sky?

Glacial entropy star petal dictating the umbrage centripetal osculation of cot
Melt construction micro thorn passivity thus lit external stillness in woods
Gelidity demise god dirt-seed direction if black core rotation under cellar
Flame erecting insecticidal sky chaos for pallid eternal stop is heaven

Within Numbers There Are More Numbers!
Zero Times
I've seen through the cleaning with a barrel drone
My cobblestone flight tempered the sickle with a ruby glare
Certainly the two of divide while wading
You're circumvent mesh is the elixir step thresh
When I hold the inner hedge I blister sheen lids with single
The sway builds awkward
I remember the day sky-blood lost foist hinder
You, You and I, We severed east turn blank turmoil fissures with group

Letter to a Friend (upon being asked if I am a healer)
i'm not officially ordained by the ministry of science and politics
people tell me that they feel better when i'm around
people tell me secrets
the last secret was from a girl
we consider ourselves friends
yet we've barely talked
her boyfriend may be a bit jealous
one day she told me she was molested
sexually violated
she told me that she only told one other person
ever
and that didn't work out very well
other people tell me that i sooth anxiety attacks
