"Potatory Inlet

this
thing, this
morass.

not are you out of it
yet:
having to walk with your
head turned away all the time,
gives a stiff neck
& you keep tripping.

but me, I
parted with that piñata
a long ways back.
O, I can't more than
crawl
with the floor this canted &

really wish
all my stuff hadn't fallen
down there out of reach but
I know where I stand
in this thing, this
tender boggy quagmire

fathomless
--not infinite"

Sciamachy chill

hazarding myrrh chill

Than final dust crystal flying lungfish to

Ink dark cant wodwo unknown Grinchus

"Precisely when the students think they're really writing about 'what happened to them.' that's when they are most in the grip of literary clichés and stereotypes. What excited them to write about an incident in the first place was that the reality was already so close to the cliché: that's what made it seem such good story material." --Samu*l R D*lany, in: Across th* Wound*d Galaxi*s, L McCaff*ry (1990)

   "Suburbs"

Profound crystal doom
of down lungfish indigo idol

Act frabjous
nyctalops is strung raucous clasping idol

Mountain rotor impacts doom
of idol borborygm twisting indigo

Slow fulcrum indigo igloo off
gill as shadow lilt

Inform idol filth against
doom dizzy

   "THERAPEUTIC MISADVENTURE

In the Morgue of Dreams
I found my own.

Not yet prettified by the undertaker,
it still bore the marks
of how it had died--

by violence,
by many hands."

--Aaron Gut*n, op cit
