bettr lving thru sbtractn




did you dream once the too-vivid scheme?
and were you splayed astray by those small purgatories
of the everyday?


like crook jowls of gasoline
seen upon the ashtray mind
which cleaves and contrives

and rather ignites the spit that it leaves.


Oh my comrades of strewn days            !

            come    impertinent dazed !

                 - what antagonisms became of us in sparks

                 &  boots blackened against the pricks

                 grasped in gasping smoke which
relays
     
what?       -      revolting

     -            rummage of illusions !

                              conveying -

                             - infinite vertigo

           - til all portions jammed zigzag      at loggerheads & brain quite akimbo!


blood clots the Lazarus plot -
                                 and cuts -
to  that which move us amongst the utterly unmovable

-      & cuts to that which  unhinged us against the jaw insatiable ,
whose capitalist tooth
           gnawed the marrow of our youth away.


     better living thru subtraction-
the entire initiative must be -
                       detached at the crux of memory -

this deprivation is necessary.
this deprivation is necessary.


- better trying thru deletion

-       its been most precisely rubbish anyways.
