heavy-lidded remote manifestation, carnal
smoke dream. come here. the midnight console
lights dim and sultry as any club. hues of orange,
deep magenta, white blue, hazy red. behind the
scenes the selfsame agent inserts his modules, going
by instinct, eyes moist and lambent
as the blessed buds

arrest this poem
sweet thursday is more than just a Steinbeck
fable; it's the warm hand of fall and a day
like today when there's a fair chance
of airing out the neurotransmitters, taking
them for a little ride (come on,
you know what I'm talking about,
and 2 days into this pungent, fraught
season of angled light and leaves
is when the Molson tastes best)
ah, shit, it's the dying days of the world
and America

the tony robbins of the mind
must always remember there is only one chance for me now and that is to write and write long and write serious with Kafka, Van Gogh, Jimi Hendrix as spiritual guides, with Charles Bukowski methodology, and with something else I can't quite mention or else lure the jinx even more but I bet you can guess
man I feel like such a loser sitting up here in this state and yet I wouldn't be anywhere else, only doing something else and that is why it is critical for me to remember that there is only one chance left for me now either way, whether get paid or no, no matter what level of success achieve, the goal is to do this and to do it some more and once have done it to perform the follow through things one must do once have done it
shit may have to do it drunk some nights, might have to do it in front of the Red Sox on TV if do it starting right now rightexactlythisweek and month, but must do it and will do it, will cheese it up if necess., will do with abandon, the key is lots of dialogue and scenes from one to another and the waking dream. shit. why not do it now. no I mean right now. why else have a dead-end job in loserville 45 minutes from where you were born. but that's OK. because
there is only one chance for me now, only one watchword, only one key, only one thing
to do.

uneven strain
brian meniscus
what a fuckin laugh,
this is a "That...is why
you fail" moment
standin smokin by my truck
this morning I felt a pang of worry
for my observatory powers
such as they are
got bombed on Zhenka last night
and missed the best parts of Schilly's
best game
it occurs to me that I could use
a vacation from
the bullshit, well,
who couldn't?
but I'd take just being baked
concomitant with the, um,
rightexactlynow
or else fresh sober in some more northern woods
with a bow
or else at home writing a story
or even writing from this vein of crap I write in here
or else driving to New York City concomitant with the condition
that it's to somehow get crazy paid and then leave
nah, on second thought,
fuck NYC, you
can have it.

destroy these instructions
what's been wrong, what's
been going on, he asked. It's in the vodka,
it's on the paper, I said, it's
in something I put on the paper
while I was in the
vodka
the all the time whisper
ethic
uneasy sleep suspiration
gambit lisps,
chanteuse...
yeah, then I reach back. but the past
is no fun anymore, my specific masochism
requires some blood in the now,
I want some rack tragedy, Becky,
I want to be hurt by your intrigue and better
you be drunk and livid. Score me
with them green fingernails again write
on me one last time your snailwise reverse
blossom tragedy of woe and lust
and later smoke cigarettes with me at 4 a.m. in that blue diner
by South Station above hot black coffee
wiped out among tacit afterglow sadness, no tell,
no motel,
we did it in
your truck, now
your black hair's woven
through your palm, wrung for grief of what?
I never had no trouble playing fool,
look here, I'll play it once more for you
tell him it's the puppetry of fate,
eggs on a plate;
let's find a rooftop
and get blazed this morning
(you see it's so no place here and
this coulda been something this coulda been
a contender)

fool subliminal sandbagging the piper
haha who lost his guitar
the phrase"they who claim the Reign of Al Bazeel is here"
just flashed into my upper consciousness - take that as
an indicator of how the motherfucking life is kicking
right nowrightexactly now
neutral causes conspire man
arboreal pauses require and
adverbial clauses from liars
suck the air straightup out my tires you
fat motherfuckerthat'swhyIfuckedyourbitch and
I turned to one man and said:
What I can't figure out is all this time
I thought you'd straightfront abandoned me
but your real scene is evidently way more devastatingly
banal
And I turned to another man and said:
Hey you go gobble that head pill
then I dropped that line with decamp,
and snuck off into the bed night dream arbor
with you. her. one
business card dipsomaniac bathe
slave garbed
in diurnal ejaculate

negativity, man
pin pains in the left knee
Parliament Lights
too short nights
of no illumination
job woes
so it goes
feel like I can't win
in my picayune disaster
life
sucker

bad
I had to run back in the pines and scratch into the earth the map of how bad it all sucked
rather than tell her
it was a fucked up pentatonic dream
and I couldn't wake up
