privacy please (watercolor, gel pen, graphite on watercolor paper)

sky feet

and then suddenly

all the birds were back

flying through the water

their hearts covered in gold

pouring out song after song

until everything

was covered

in bird noise

my drink woodenly

in my hands in the black

of the club someone's daughter

tells me about a house she's sold

this night is lasting so long

until everything

is covered

in bird noise

death is heavenly

it's where jesus smokes crack

drying off the bloody led to slaughter

where you are always loved never told

what to do and nothing's wrong

and where everyone

is super hot

and beautiful

strap on the underwater gear

ted gets punched hard in the face

late that night is drenched in black sweat

bleeding he pours through his telephone directory

it's louder than the trajectory of death

her name is there in brilliant marble

armless he calls her number. hawks poked out his

arms they travel through time now in packs

their shawls are made of wax i've heard

you know they were there because you were born

forlorn in the eighties everyone on this dude

ranch was made from denim the often

softest shades of blue

his hope fell through the face of the earth

birthed into the bottom of the world. this

an abundance of bricks

is what gravity predicts

facing the pooper (watercolor and graphite on watercolor paper)

disturbing the dust

she rolls back on her head

the cactus cutting her soft hands

the blood pours out into the mouth

of the river, full of fish

at the bottom among

the bones of the dead animals

in between the moss covered

rocks she fills her hot mouth

full of river water

she is sick of everything

he is calling her from glasgow

on his cell phone. his name is

lit up in silver in her pocket

she feels like she is going crazy

she wishes that this could be

the last show of the earth

before forever arrives

tonight beams are blinding her
she feels nothing but knows

he is out there somewhere

the super trouper.

shinning

shinin' like the sun
smilin', havin' fun feeling

like a number one
