Beneath your nail
Spreading out,
Maculate tines of crimson
Resound:
Wake, wake
Atop riots
In my slight atria
Rummaging
(And there—
There!
Cactus-like
Take root).

Starched ribs entomb
Motes by shepherding breath corralled
To slaughter and the hanging crook
In deeply chambered slivers of lung.

On my skin nerved with sweat
Press again the edge of imagined grace—
But I will no longer pretend to heal
When your hideous, icy craving is fed.

Slender, wilted arms of smoke
My once lavish avatar sheds
In flushed and fragrant metamorphosis
Climbing translucent, veiny husks.

Find me brining
On the crater’s shore,
Lathered sumptuously plump
And white with foam;
But elsewhere among these sandy bruises—
My severed, discarded neck
Squeaks.

Broken teeth by gaps combing
Mellow, archaic striations
Across the brow of distant night
Like many raking diadems.

Skyward strain
Your fleshy stalks
Like palatial beams
Capped off in frost,
While I sit perched
On my toadstool guarding
Moonlight’s motley shimmering sleeves.

Hold it aslant
And let me be
(Though sometimes unprismatically)
A pinwheel set by starry grains
In tilting discourse with a breeze.

What gossip from the emerald god
Do you, bright automaton, carry
With studious care and brooding step
To my drowsy, sepia, altar?

By a royal gutter I stooped searching
Like mossy Avalokitesvara
For sustenance in the squall of rats
And nirvana in solar rigor.

Chase me into deeper space
Riding wavy hiatus
Trampling dashes burnt to seizure
Clad in havoc's acrid mane.

The moon my golem in tantrum revolting
Spews icy vapors chiming
Darker intimations of menace
Burnished with decay.

I wish I could summon up,
Quiet above the earth,
Some dim spectre of relief
In floating apart.

Moonrise carved into your heart
Valleys once flush with beating
Dreams of idle youth now simmered
To rank arterial sludge and scar.

From lullabying air I will abruptly crawl
To lie with you on the rough concrete
In this cradle poured for me
To drink up my carnal, impermanent dye.

Scrape me bloody with seraphic tongue
Wanting ardor to infect
My welts marbled purple-black
Sewn into the lining of my mouth.

At the bottom,
An opening to a new sky parts
Like your lips unbraiding
Gestures of invitation
To graze.

Drum on brutishly
Through tumbling ether,
Past the stride of another horizon
Already stamping away.

I can almost snake into
Your chapped, sucking grimace
Like a vine moistened with teething
Through wormy loins of death.

Motion in motion unsteadily caught
In a net of a thousand streakings by
Trailing a thousand darts of light
Woven into rain.

May your carcass like the moon risen,
Paler than its shroud,
Catch me finally with brittle arms
When the earth is ripe for falling.

Soggy aspect of Cthulhu
Limp on my plate—
I stir your sleeping tentacles
Plump with hoisin sauce and doom.

Into the pearled ellipsis of night withers
Your bright corolla’s flesh strung
Like clutches of tinsel spangling
Daylight’s watery arc.

The tree on Enceladus—
In your slow winter’s dream
I, pining for the warmth that buries life,
Cannot much longer stay.

My lurid revels collect
With light brush of talcum
On a trimly wired breast.

Take a fall into the blue,
Chieftain of matches,
And spread your limbs like flares melting
All the way out of focus.

Now bellows from his cheeks’ crater
Summer’s phantom, putrid flower
Strewing on earth pale with use
His jaw’s sinew pulled apart.

Through smoke and false color
Hunts one truant sprite
Darting from field to flower.

In petals richly plumed,
Brushes a curtain
Falling like an open palm.

A thrashing of wings against my throat
Lapped wave-red and sore
With diving.

Bands of amethyst her arms bewitch,
Prying outward their youthful eye
Bearing the glare of sudden sight
Torn from her brooding yolk their center.
