8. The Sound of You



“Consciousness has nothing to do with me either
I’m just moving inside it, catch as catch can’t”
Fanny Howe, Selected Poems (U Cal P, 2007, p 9)

High drips afford us all
Pellicules and kittens tend
Ketchup smells the clyster
Unexceptional in my opinion

The sheep’s nose swells the precipice
Writing hemp agrimony is madness
Beef – are we begging it to eat?
Unpleasant flesh presses us

Diseases front it formal facile or
Hew our shilling to initial an alliance
Ebola brilliant it ransoms form if
Deaf I aren’t definite the foe

Heroes ring our upper gnomes
Sweeping me in needled flesh
If space behold our prince in riding clothes
Issuing you assume it’s true
