Glossolalia 9
Bear to be born
Born bare
Now clothed
In thought
Now stare
Through beer bubbles
Exhale symbolic noise
Cross-examination
Cross-damnation
Yes, the eyes ate
Sex flesh, wanton.
Eye be guilty
Eye be filthy.
Eyes see squabbles
Eyes see the synapse
Snap
No more thought
Crack, light
ning, crack the
Neanderthal eye
Spear the sky
Kill another guy
Spout another lie
Shoulder woman, cry
Hang head low
Thunder plunder
Face grip floor
Door roar
Rain tears
Clouds reverse
Evaporate
Dissipate
Squint, sunlight
Tear, torn ragged
Retinal memory.
Eye be in shards.
Death dealt the cards.
Stare
The open hand
Grips air
You are in.
No longer there.
