Black Hole Air

zebra black 1947 (ny)



her bones
like splintered stone
scatter the blood of a darker self

                               "a high note at a low point"
                

eyes flicker red flames
nightmare's wine
beats the soul to the ground
in secret's place
where bodies are poems

                             "bodies of a puzzled lust"

Venus in furs
fractures chime and broken bell

                             " tell me how she hooked your mind"

staccato aphasia
trembles disrupted linearities
in a coffined mouth
as visions brim
by a mindless god's
elective horrors
in balconies of eternity

                                  "let your hands be her hands"

vertigo falls through windows
black hole air

                                    "the coat that covers paradise uncovers hell"

M ABOUT MY POEMS: My poems remain explorations of the subconscious erotic. They are lunar anamorphic streams of consciousness from the deep subterranean glitz of transgressive impulses we all share Bwahhaaahaaa more…
