Consequently,
It Has the Potential to Improve

Consequently, it has the potential to improve
Likewise, it is not the shape of the window after death
But this time, too, as in childhood,
He was the successor to my internal organs:
Compact your basis,
Spark large fire Feed’st
And the famine, there were so many
His enemies will distress you, cruel mouth and you want:
The kit is now clean
The fact that it was adopted, and the variety of colors and heritage,
The content of your seed in Burien
Family and evil mind, confidence, self-love to look down niggarding:
Oh, and there is something to be greedy,
The diet consists of a mixture of these two worlds.

Lyric

Ladders cross the blue sky
in a wheel of fire. The red sun

gnaws at the spider. A person
is throwing a stone at a bird,

the beautiful bird revealing
the unknown to a pair of lovers.

Techno 101

No. I don’t know what Pokémon Go is
and what all these things are…You’re talking
to somebody who made his first phone call
at age 17. You’re talking to someone who doesn’t

have a cell phone, for example, for cultural reasons.
Tell me about Pokémon Go. What is happening
on Pokémon Go? Does it tell you you’re here
at San Vicente, close to Sunset Boulevard?

But what does Pokémon do at this corner here?
When two persons in search of a Pokémon
clash at the corner of Sunset and San Vicente
is there violence? Is there murder? Physically,

do they fight? Do they bite each other’s hands?
Do they punch each other? I have no clue what’s
going on there. Yeah, you’d have to give me
a cell phone, which I’m not going to use anyway,

Diana

After the flood
new angel
still feminine
flower myth
at the core
coming to bloom
a woman for gods
in Sunday best
Diana in
the autumn wind—
this flower
wishes to fade
before the snow.

When Nothing is Cool

A time for nothing much,
one child teasing another,
twins committing suicide together,
a man drinking in the woods.

We dialed F-U- C-K- Y-O- U
and L-O- V-E- Y-O- U
to see what happened.

Someone called Vincent
rang at the door and gave his ear
in a folded piece of paper
to the person who came to open it,
saying, “Take it, it will be useful.”
