from The Bone Pieces
She feels she has the right to walk. Back out into the know it all
sun. Outside a sequence of time. Lost in lost ozone. Fossils
protected. If who wins balanced on a beam. The ones they leave are
carted away. There was nothing personal in her car
In safe places no ground will remember them. You'll see the blazers
will lose and we will all lose just as some of us will win. The
Fingers touch a preamble on the ceiling of the chapel. Mischief in
small places large imperatives. There was not talk about coming back.
Or leting her go. We were bound to fuel a catalytic converter.
Don't flood it. Mastodon feelings of relaxation. Geographical praxis
shifts towards romance like oil spilling into an ocean. When his
bones were in place inside his body we were not interested. She was
left for dead in the trunk of here car
Seems having suffered the conversion we should be buy them.
It takes death and several centuries below ground of continual dying.
The bodies completely sculpted away by time's petty grievances. A
soul's soil nitrates. That they were abused as a child. Plastic
miniature dinosaurs on the surface of her dashboard the Blessed Virgin
Get but then. Why leave bones in them. The card almost hitting me
gets to the light and idles. Behind the wheel we are not quite human.
In time he can be eatan again as an encapsulated amount of surface.
Crude surface centuries later encapsulates them. Suppessed memories
of walking at the confluence of rivers. All alone would be her
extinction. Would burn the hole thru the meaning of her car
Oh to be buried at sunset. He has several tatoos that will not
perservere will. The tainted blood supply burbling. We will keep on
pumping. Remember always these causes. The little ancient art deco
gas station atones for the glass phallus girding in the distance.
Com on blazers. It's unseasonalbly hot today. The cataclysm of
centuries of unexpressed grief. What is the cataclysm of time
removed? Put on your tangerine shoes and let's go for a drive
