Sturm und Drang are
such my thang,
Ride, Valkyries, Ride!

Fear is my friend,
I face up to it often.

I know that feeling
flying rudderless
emptying my captured
breath.

not tethered to you
I disperse like hydrogen

Lighter than air
I look up
to see you
disappear.

 

[Tzara]

Ionosphere.
Gee, never been this high!
Hope I'm not acrophobic.

I am dying, Isolde,
content. Affirmed of our
unstained love.

We had a
Wandering Jew plant
we called
Edgar Quinet.

some drinking
creates new thirsts
that last even
through death.

(that's wild)
who named it?
Tristan? Jean-Paul?
At whose stone?

 

[Miss Oatlash]

Forget forever.
But never forget today.
All ways.
Always.

Prelude's anxious chord
initiates tension
unrelieved
until transfiguration.

The end.

Quinet's here too,
Before me.
I want Simone's strawberry tart.

Avoid the Concorde

Seine.

Sewer gas.

perpetually
elusive
regarding
familiar
entities

thoughtlessly

trigger
ennui
noir

dont ignore
friends
or spend nights bored.
