Hailstorm in Chalon
breezing outta the upstairs changing room
hair blowing, scented
like a slowed down music video
radio station static
tout droit
wire's in a coeur corner
head hail:
made up
arriving at the station
ax wound weeping
I'll palm the patch
before piscine
a pig (not dio)
a shaved man on a run down road
eating a bunch of grapes
an apple (balled by a melon)
it's obvious
that my feet aren't in politics
unless
your set lips
cause allergies

Table For... You?
Table for two?
No.
One.
One more
Hit wonder
One liners
Born every minute
Une nuit
Yeah, one piece
Suit for sharing
One eyed jacks
And up
In a million
One on one
One off
For all
An eye or shoe
Pair of pearls
Where's my shoe?
One pound
Of prickly pears
One egg missing
A room
One way
Cul de sac cunt
No return
1 above
Above none
You
Not some

Sea Legs
As he packed up
Leaving behind remnants and cobwebs
And tenancy dust
We broke this bed:
Support straps snapped
The map of France flopped
Ships in the sea
The legs gave way.

Tourists at Petit Dejuner
All showered, shitted and shaved
Armpits, pussies, legs
Men in denim
Shorts and shirts
(all with hair)
At 7 a.m there's no one
Younger than me
I'm on concentrated juice
And coffee, no sugar
They stack plates:
Ham, jam, pastries
How saccharine
These couples that have
Curled and cuddled
As I curdle without G
My guarantee
I can't help from looking outside
We get a taxi to the airport
And abandon
We don't book
Or research
We go where we see
A sea from a room
I get up and groom
Clip and nip and lay
On marble
Waiting for a breakfast
Of honey
Ham
and sugar.

LIPSINKING
These are lyrics to cervelle musique
(avec ou sans capers)
I'm in Seville kicking peeled orange skins
At pigeons that don't know where
Worms wiggle.
My kidless kidneys dance
On the other foot
The white robe worn
Is a hotel bathrobe
My hand in my pocket
Feeds snails named Alanis
and Anaïs
Who else: Henry Miller.
And after
Plucked from the garden
Fucked into a brown bucket
To shit it all out:
A detox for death to be delectable.
My pupils have been lessoned
Regarding this photo of us
It opens my pours
I'd swear on the heart of Christ
If i'd jamais met 23 versions of your shape
And look my search would constantly
Be to try and find a switch to finger
Not a trigger
But you are
A floodlight.

Licking Out Logarithm
Your Da sends you a picture,
Of your camera,
Post quake,
what scale
And I think of
(though you haven't asked)
sniffing the ravine's curve,
diving into you
on the Costeria Amalfitana,
demain demons,
Frizzante bottles
In the fridge of a
Rented room by
a freddo sea as seagulls
shit and scrounge.
The discovered city's clitty,
semi dry holy wine
and cantucci,
Che figa,
the cissy chapel,
the mortadella bella,
lumache l'amore,
the letto macchiato,
meravigiosa meals
In our hotel,
And the headline hangovers
that vanish in fume
lava and ash
As I eat gnocca
for breakfast-
the paper unread,
coffee cold,
the dog huffing,
by the closed door.

Lean In
You've pondered, that's plunder
Too much thinking,
Thinking 'bout thinking,
Me thinks Meta,
Fuck off you.
A red carpet stroll,
Casual capsule,
Catspulted and crowbarred.
I'm funny too:
Jaded in gaol
Gloves in the toilet bowl
Fingers wrapped
'round cold bars
covered in cocoa.
A jug raised (to us),
With slick sangue of a hare;
My key pulled out of a stomach
And left to be rained on.

Bukowski, this must have happened to you.
And you sit there in the kitchen
low lighting and cigar butts
smoldering and a woman on your lap
and one on the phone in the bathroom
to her dealer and the typewriter
covered with cloth or a bed sheet
when the one from the bathroom returns
she turns the television set on
(bending over you admire the shape of her rear
and she drops an earring and crawls around
so you rise at the sight of her tits)
and you see a cheaply made show
but the volume is down and you see me
on a busted bed with wet red blood
not from a frog
not from a self harm wound
and she's letting out oxygenated laughing
thinking it's cum
but who cums menstrual malade chiens
barking as furniture moves around the womb
(hit the ceiling with a phallic broom)
who cums a city's artificial lights?
I'm not phased by the mania (of course, this feeds a mania)
It's the glory of showering off réglé
at 4 a.m on a Saturday
as the 7 million eggs
you were born with
diminish and soak into
a bed we get back
get back
in to.

The City Between Her Legs Is Not Verona
Otherwise I'd be leccatura
The same stone already had
By Montague
And the dog would be white
As opposed to
That one that's following me
And sniffing at my crotch
We'd be bronze
With an aura... borealis
Vetivert introvert
Meets a Taurus flower
And like back garden children
Chewing and scratching this été
We bite the ripened apple
On the grass

tout ce qui brille n'est pas
'Men lie about that Spoonful' Howlin' Wolf
Paillettes faces
from tenants past
in East proper
as this myriad eyed thing
with wings
watched me do things
That were done before
(you know where)
an after a.m lunge
the huddle in underwater
underwear
no prospects to prosper
couldn't sift the sugar
on a full chest
But spoons in that sink
light down
A camera clean up
rying to find
a hole
or a whole window
in a home
for this
frustrating mess
something from
Meet the Applegate's
or another similar
50's horror

Bon voyage
Remember rappeler
use the city you live in
as if
you were on holiday-
visit the parks
the theatre
go tour
go ists
debate dates
Call upon the lipstick saint esprit
live cheap
avoid sleep
the stay home
Baby bubble
is not eggs and caviar
cooked by Guérard
cull crap
suck sap
between branches
listen to those
accidental/suicid
écoute to those
who have almost died
and plan on getting into
prescription painkillers
see:
darvon
vicodin
Oxycontin 40
Dilaudid
tramadol
écoute
to vomit choking
carl crack
delirium tremens
loose pubes
hydrocodone headphones
self inflicted insults
overboard verbose overdose
anti depressant presents
b. a. l. - 36%
drown gowns
peeping sills
peered over yards
Seconal supermodels sprouting suggestive schiap nars
Coked out country collisions
Buttes Chaumont birthday boy
benching barbiturates (not dying in Bernett's)
this is an alphabet
autopsy
the report:
possible
Atherosclerosis /aspergers
asphixia onanism.

drôle
When one was labelled
Funny - see drôle
The ingredients
Read:
Mustard powder 1/2 tsp
Salt liberal
Pepper to taste
A case of Bourgogne Blanc
Three caffe corretto's
A child's skull
Fly's on fishing rods
One (unused) copy of Men's World

The gum seat
A woman stuck up a tree
A handful of stones
Tinned Anchovies rinsed
Lilliput Capers
Chitterlings
Flour to dust
Butter soft
A pan big enough to fit a cupboard cunt.

Reste
At dinner in another's home
Coded in to the reste of Christmas
The tenant before hadn't pulled
The blinds up for 30 odd years
He gave me a stewed lapin head
The jaw gave way in my palm
I sucked the langue
As she bit hers
And asked again
Où es-tu?
Post wine cheminer:
The city's seal unglued
Spread on the Blvd Clichy
Coded in to the reste of Christmas

De Attrait
Down Metro Louvre-Rivoli
There's glass benches
And up there on hot rue's:
Topless drunks
Misogynist cabine's
Morrison's expatriate hangout
Ghost writers drinking from haunted
Cocktail glasses at Pont Royal
Algerian socks
Eyes bar
Styrofoam snails
The Baci marche where P.P
Bought still life apples
Beef cheeks lettuce heads and
snacks
L'hotel where Wilde popped
And passed
On Mouffetard
Ernest got ossified and wrote about men
Without women.

Rezo
Dolled and tuned
Check
Through a wind
Bills building unsettled
Sheltered I chose
Thick sopa and two bottles
The place had started
Saints had already listened
To south American rezo's
But for another's sake
They couldn't put
That part on a common map
Two different directions
East arrow faltering
Before a set
This was why they thought
The world was round...
A gate over her décolletage
Fitted in fabrics
Melody puppetry
Those cinema scenes
Where they don't speak
And your head eats itself
I should of skipped the casting
Fired the agent
And gone dressed as a dog
When a chanteuse sees
These soft pupils curl
In a heavy tête
They compose.

Escape Map
This was written at the Picasso Musée and was published two years ago.
Pablo, when my knife
Peels fruit skin,
There’s subliminal Spain
And Paris before,
This century played people.
Women,
Gathered knocking,
For a kiss.
We have hands, round heads
Busy producing coloured
Shapes of
deliberated choice.
Before lunch,
Down Rue des Grands Augustins,
I waited where you created,
What hangs on Madrid.
Tell me, did erotic ombre’s
Posses you not going dry?
Stuffed strong,
Forward desire,
Cools by controlling
Relief in percentages.

A Horde
A painting is a horde
Of destructions
Said Pablo Picasso
And I stay here with
Whore's deconstructing
The constructions
The cellar door
Booted in
By an El Paso Jailbird
On a large charge
Finger finding a switch
But no hits
Her photoed tits
Post shower cop off
Hairdryer plugged in
Bunched towel
The kids back from the monkey run
This time I shower
And feed them change
And from under covers
She tells the eldest to straighten
The painting
Ties shoes
Let the hound out
From this bathroom window
My dog chases 'em
She shouts in
The cellar's got guests again
I know they're back
They will chirp
Cheep chirrup.

Laying on hands (Not of)
Getting sniffed
And seen through glass
The bolt
Or mad surge
Take a stance:
Knees on the floor
Mains together
Virgin Maria?
Santo Antonio?
The weight of waiting.

For That Year
Fitzgerald full stopped at 44
With coco covered mains
Smudged prints on the Princeton Review-
Big Scott got $13.33
The year before
And Ernie
The hardheaded prick
Couldn't make it to his wake
So Francis Scott
In death
You received
What you asked
But couldn't see
That one you had thought
Had fucked off
Fame.

The rope in my mouth
Not the ginger red tom cat
Not the railway nazi
Or boozy Bardolph's rose nose
Not a donor - blood or sperm
Organ
Related to ripped royalty
Reverse to my perversions
Not typing in a Cuban bar
Renting a shack
A capricious dog owner
Not knocking over milk glasses
Moving to Nassau
Penetrating virgin's
In their 20's
Not a dab hand
A silver bullet
Accelerating behind the wheel
Of a '78
Not behind tinted windows
Blasting 'The Chronic'
Not roped into
Fallopian tubes
Daytime drinks
Doing reps
(Lie)
Afraid to get laid
While hitchiking
Jump into a 18ft deep pool
(Lie)
Not there
Respond through text
Callus Calls
20 or eaten
By stomach worms
Not eligible
or legible
Brazen
Or at the school gate
Not idol
or residing in birth
Not in pictures
or numbers
Maybe through
medical histoire
Not fluent
Or what they could
Sense.

Beware
The window boxes of Paris
The overwatered soil drops
Mashed into rues
Topor’s landlady
The Metro bums
Bats shacked up
Under Hôpital Broussais
Parle in a guinguette
You visit others in air flight
And the nouvelle France café
Transforms into a noodle bar
They don’t want you
In the plm hotel
And this blvd is part of
A Maze.
