Hypergraphic Love Poem



Writing a light poem with our new Lumix camera—night equals light—obscure flamingo can-can for three legged dancing—a love poem for Camille.

poem fragment

Everywhere our birds descend out of nowhere.

Before I Go

This is my corner, my long-bearded
quiet place. Does it seem wise to hide
the face when its mouth is moving?

When I say "amen" I am a stranger
to my prayer. It is un-natural to vocalize
good-byes, to seem prepared. I mean...

the last thing you think before you die,
should have been the first. In a round
world, the light folds inward on itself

and disappears. I am not afraid,
there have been deeper, darker woods
than this, less brave who'll follow

and when I press my final kiss,
coveting the dimming, dancing flame,
the sun-soaked ceiling, the ebbing,

twisted veins, what I have given
to the world and all that I have
gained- flows up and outward.
Hello. I'm new (Christine Hamm). I appreciate the invite.

Yes, the poem.

UNIT 17. COMMUNICATION WITH OTHER PLANETS

using the energy of exploding teeth,

the moon is somewhat like gasoline
engines, sewing machines, steam engines and
electric motors.

You should be careful not to swim in the strings of the piano.

Pull down muscles,
this machine.

You should avoid letting anyone
move down like the earth,
(a thick waxy substance is secreted
in the canals)

Wouldn’t you like to really
find out about our weather?



This one was part of a collage, but I can't get the picture to scan right.

Sunday Moning

She sits with a magazine
Opened in her hands
Sit with her legs crossed at the knees
She watches her clothing
Tumble in the dryer
She closes her eyes to sneeze.

JFK DREAMT OF SATOMI DOGWOOD

That is all it takes is one shot.
And all that crimson spills out,
staining each leafy green brocade.

Forensics can tell us the velocity
of a lacerating blow to the flesh by the size,
the shape of blood marks.

Trajectory is measured with strings, pulled like webs,
that span the distance, the angle the blood has traveled
to mark its place upon any wall or blade of grass in any field--even this one.

A bullet through the back of your head
will spray the blood, each droplet spreading out into thin wires,
into tiny telegraphs of how you died.

Maybe, you were running across an open field just then.
It does not matter. Your blood will say it all. It will cry out after you cannot
saying listen, listen, let me tell you what I know.

(from Days Poem, section 299

on a day in 1909, or some such, Ezra Pound writes to Wyndham Lewis, and the course of literature as we know it changed, roughly beginning at Point K or M and traveling a fine curlicue before coming to a Point not yet named. the two great writers divested their impediments for minutes on end, circled to a perspective then roared forth. forth is a country that has never, ever been mapped. Ezra Pound determined a placement or plaster casting of something, then relegated interiour dialogue to the midden heap, plus he wore a fop­pish scarf. Lewis beget Lewis ideas, farmed a section of maintenance and avoided something for having been sick. the two legends cir­culated further, looked into friendship, decided on words, and got angry at various matters. death and treacle can both be very slow but not every answer adds up. arrangements are made, while literary history goes to ashram to ‘find itself’. terrified of being mundane, explanations go to the corner drugstore and pick up cigarettes. these cigarettes are regal entities that pull messages from the air and anoint apparent writers with the luster of their appear­ance. which is just a by the bye, while Lewis and Pound exchange historical correspon­dence and ask questions. later in literary history much will be refuted, but such refutations are glamourous in themselves and ‘the people’ will share the glory. constancy stains urge with a process and a wink. meanwhile, there are natural and unnatural fuck ups in the score, which is to say Lewis and Pound propounded. factions deserve attention, say the people of faction. relentless resource is an arid beginning to a munificent creation. sometimes the historical personages of literary history get blotto and sometimes they trans­late. piecing together indifference from the shards of a vanquished society provides telltale reminders that heaven is a church built in a nice district, well-regarded from many aspects including excellent drainage. drainage is important as it lets old literary history seep away, as well it ought. Lewis and Pound are not (most likely) old literary history, but one should always keep one’s eye ope. in a faceless society, ramifications broaden on a basis of travelogue, identity, virtual crisis, preparation and molten lava. perhaps this is an attempt at resolution, or restriction, or timepiece. people arrange flowers in their dreams, casting excuses into pup tents or rendering laughable comments in little pocket notebooks. parsing these divagations allows the cool observer to scale the matter to ideal height and weight, motivating a full frontal attempt or perhaps a nice Maginot feint. Ezra Pound stood nine feet tall and Wyndham Lewis was nearly so. they crushed victors with their toes and bought time wholesale. their literary history tousled the experts and gave new meaning to new meaning. researchers even today say that yesterday was tomorrow. which is no mean distinction, at a time when closure ranks with other heavens in the circular debate and enthusiasm. cartridges are simply left on the battlefield, no longer needed. artistry is gone, or left to hang dry for the nonce. meanwhile, the literary lions sport amongst themselves, with dire results. well, not dire, and not exactly results. but at least we can say that we can at least say. Ezra Pound and John Lennon wrote many great songs together, the voice of a generation. while all heedlessness blurs. capricious envy logs on to the latest report, which is instant, full of sameness, but instructive in winning ways. gesture deserves its own climate, and consideration should be given to undertow when swimming the ocean of literature. the dog once again curls up on the chair, yet Lewis and Pound are contained in the merest phrase. effort is made to apply wildness to zones of verity, but this is easy talk. hard talk consists of battering the ramparts and distinguishing this from that. this is here; that is there. what could be simpler? social concerns are so much wax, which can someday be the whole ball of, or it can be what is eaten as candle. heaven knows that literary history tries, and improvement leaves luxury to moan. that moaning derives directly from Robert Johnson, who saw hellhounds with direct lighting. how needful the cheeriness that embellishes the lasting tribute that has startled one and all as they ope the book. diversity is a crank living in a treehouse on the edge of a deep forest that falters with the lack of memory. incredulity syndicates and rocks the market with formulae and tripe. the tripe is perhaps fresh, but who can tell? moody haze delivers the day, so some say, and the threat of rain becomes an actuation of a sunny clime providing the happy flowers with food source and merriment. Lewis and Pound map the continent, exploring the mysteries west of the Missouri, the edgy Snake River, for instance, and some weird-ass markings on some rocks. just Maginot, says the writer, chuckling to find how useful it is to let go. in preceding sentence, ‘go’ is a verb. ‘go’ can also be a noun (in this case ensconced in a prepositional phrase): ‘on the go’. delicacies thrive in wastelands by choosing their own to feed. were Wyndham and Ezra delicacies, pariahs, dentists? does usefulness apply to the versions lately tendered? can literature survive itself, and will its future be later than we think? questions, all. distilling the margin for essence may leave a bad taste in the mouth, but it could also delve the regulations and fire up equity that might sail to attachment. gesture is tribal. tribes are relative. time consists of functioning undulations that can include Wyndham Lewis and Ezra Pound but, perhaps, need not. who the fuck knows? literature is the prow of the ship, and the ship is a grassland, that is: placement of security. such placement boldly delineates very little, yet it is fun to think it could. it could light the way to the other star or evolve people to a new altitude or alienation. language has fractions instilled from the beginning and deliberations that roll on. literature is no trifling beat. Pound and Clark (who is Lewis) place virtual signposts along the way. no roaming charges remain. lofty sentiment flowers because it has soil at its toes. the people are gripped somehow, pulled by the tractor beam into the next couple of centuries. relevance is miasmic. poetry is here, and there, and all along the way.

She will be that in four days and

Distant Lovers

The water's so clear
pebbles kiss reflected stars
like distant lovers.

The Dying Tree

The song
is dark-

the root
is veined,

black sap
thickens

inside
wrinkles

of the wood;

rich, green
blood

coughed
up..

the color
of clover.

El Segundo

The blazing necklace curls
around the concrete neck
of freeway; each steel bead
cocoons a hidden life.

The absence of moving
makes thinking- an inward,
tortured game of feeling
trapped in line on LA 405.

From east to west the metal
birds descending steady, low,
lights blinking in the foggy night
then disappear behind the bridge

as taxi cabs, angry honking ducks
file slowly off the airport exit,
feathers clipped and tucked
tight against their yellow breasts.

A limousine, an open hood
fuming black smoke and steam,
the driver pacing penquin in
armani suit and cellular extreme.

A sudden surge, a stroke of luck
the furtherst lanes loosened up,
the mind returns to rush, to speed
home to El Segundo.

Fallen Figurines

The sidewalk is scattered with upside-down figurines
at the feet of their empty pedestals. As though
some modern Alkibiades went door to door all night
knocking over herms . “Blasphemy!”
they shouted and drove him from Athens.

Who now defends the Republic? Fallen figures
or those who bring them down? Bad luck to break a herm,
but worse to be its slave.

These broken statues may be eggshells—for someone’s omelet
or from something’s hatching? Events aren’t under control
and if a phoenix is to rise, there must be fire. So watch for
smoke above, and broken glass underfoot among the clay shards
of fallen figurines.

Training a Rose

With practice - what rehearses
more faithful than blood,
the thumping engine

that hammers it forward?

With practice, the mind
abandons its home, hairless
and shaking, searching for

sleep in the unlit hills.

With practice, our bones
become seasoned and brittle
like the skin of a stone;

our worry, an underground
river that speaks to itself
about unfathomed calm,

our resilience, the shadow
of trees, the long, growing
thorn, the accomplished,

perennial bare-rooted rose .

Morning News I and II

The body of an unidentified automobile was found to be carrying
SaturdayMorning after it ran a stop department in the St. LouisMetropolitan area.
Traveling at a high rate of speed
The 25 years old automobile was shot and wounded by the police
As it speed westbound just south of 5:45 a.m.
St Louis gave chase, firing several shots at the fleeing highway.
It is reported that the estrange automobile was mechanically wounded
That it hit a road sign, then a tree and lastly overturned spilling morning
Out over the city
Clean up is expected to continue for the next three mouths.

Morning News II.

Body of unidentifiedBlack man about 25
Was found Sunday morningIn a north side trash dumpsite
Shot in right arm, shot in chest
Strangled with a tie, lift around his neck
Red and brown intercepting lines, wide cut
Out of style, heavily stained
One toe unfound, athlete feet at its worst
One finger cut through, nails full of dirt
Where grew a young peach tree bent toward earth

El sexo de los funerales

ENRIQUE V. ACUÑA

Bella Vista, Argentina, 1959


Como en un bautismo gitano

en el lago de las razas

velas nadando sobre los juncos

alumbran los cuerpos velados.

Subrepticio susurro del reír

la gota lame los labios

mortal silencio de las voces del odio

esfuma su rostro de río.

En el entierro de cada uno

bajo las olas, el tul y la mortaja

dedos entrecruzados sobre el pubis

palpitando el orgasmo de nada.-

I want run but i walk away from my stain

I want to scream but i walk away from what i want to say

I want to cry but i walk away from my pain

I want to fly but i walk away from this day

I want to dream but i walk away from my chains

I want to try but i walk away when you look at me that way

Dazzled 'n confused ...

Ardent Troublesomeness (The Story So Far Part 2, part 1-c)

as much as possible, the world situation turns on a dime. this dime laid down by Fu Manchu, that ambitious, detail-oriented professional-scale rapscallion who will stop at nothing to further his plans to rule the world. crazy man, and you can see the sea from the top of this hill, and clouds (below) from the top of Everest. and when Yeti, big as advantage, stumbles into camp, all the merrie-making deathwatch types (I skied down Everest with an anvil for a friend), on the mountain (looking) for a reason, go so scared. I mean it's like, hey, what up with this sudden, and I die too soon, and the winds suck me dry, even my compelling legend. and so on, often with photos. the fierce importance, including stopgap against Nepal becoming a footstool, or Tibet the background music to the next to last movie, all this patently redeemable, like mica once was, the glory days. Fu Manchu consults his mojo. only keen, pipesmoking Nayland-Smith can cope with the exigencies, tho he at a loss being normal and English. Yeti wears no clothes, which is scandalous, and seems untrained in riding bicycles (look how he stagger walks!). so it all comes together, briefly as the meeting of lips or, perhaps, that agreeable moment when love. crisis fades into crisis, even while not fading. Russians and gangsters and Yellow River polluted with pee, and this Army of the Americans with its machine-quality global repositioning act. tired, can't think, need water, oxygen would be nice...
