Mexico 2009

These electrical wires wrap up the walls perpendicular to the

rounded meeting of the roof and the wall. Some turn

in tight curves to achieve intended ninety-degree changes to run

the simile's parallel to that curve that is the grace

of so many rooms here. The double-barrels of something like

the white extension cords of my youth in the 1980's

United States of America running toward the room's ceiling's metaphorical

center (painted in places into the wall and escaping to

the unpainted, inverted plain of the ceiling's painted white blankness)

and crashing in a horrible mass of tangle and black

electrical tape.

Dialogue Poem 001

co-written with Minerva Reynosa

I'm thinking about falling in love with You.

Y no me recupero: sístle-diástole. Mientras am thinking la plata la sangre el costo

and the warmest place to do the mother-pain.

I should say that I am considering it.

I should say that the country is a terror.

Delimitación.

Dulzura.

Acapulco en la retina: rastamanes: un oído: once upon a time in Jamaica-España…

It would be simple.

When You look at Me with eyes: circle, circle, settle.

Lúbrica forever.

I'm caught. Caigo. Me envuelvo/desenvuelvo. Prolongo esta lengua de nubes disipadas. Un lago desdoblando su olor de húmedad: malseco / muerto / polución. Esto no puede ser óptimo: I sense the scene where two people in a crowded room become the only ones.

Don´t trust anyone over 30.

Don´t trust anyone over 30.

Don´t trust anyone over 30.

I wonder if that is not what You are creating in those moments.

Puzzle. Pedazo. Retazo. Escenografía. Parche. Remedo.

Do You lose yourself dijo cacaso and all of reality like some gentle madness manifested in a gentle red that coats: fenomenología,

darker than the candy on apples: and the sex and drugs and the complications, around your eyes: minha namorada cocainômana,

like falling backward into velvet: the cauliflower, wart tip, sea anemone landscape

of your mind,

deep into your orbits,

your canals: venice calling,

your consciousness descending; descending toward your center until You are a bright: el horizonte el movimiento mento vivo movimiento,

flickering candle in the shell of world: of the all of You

all gone out, except only that that is all You. Like the actions of an actress that has forgotten the why and lives the lines causing Me to wonder what will happen next. Y desde aquí, en esa línea perdida el psiquiatra / la paciente / los inadaptados sin olvidar a Marylin-estela-blanca de la nariz ida. Happy birthday Mrs. President. TV. Tuya caída la matriz pensando algo sumamente carnoso desde el ojo.
