rimbaud spent
(at least)
a season in hell.
i've done
a year. it's
been one
continual nightmare.
i hit
rock bottom
and started drilling.

you think
you know
but
you don't
till
it's too --

hell is --
beneath the dream --
what --
you sing through
the silence --
earth is --
a threnody
to the chaos of loss
-- once you
've seen
heaven

late/much/early

love or hate
{one energy or
the other
to fuel the great
movement --
romance,
violence --
meaning only comes
through
(re) (de) con struction}

this is the now
time
the no time
this is the one
time
won time this
is the un real
one real this is
this is is
is

i exhibit
in fam(il)y

from nous

to noose

I would be a liar if I said I got that.

I never know how to say it
as many times I have tried
how to complement a poet
for a Satisfying poetry experience
