THE SHORES



                    to feel all things in all ways                             rising from the sea



                                    today we have harmony                                   in the harbor



                    where three boys fly kites



                                                                                                    from the rip-rap



                                    boats and bodies                   eye each other



        horizontal                         and                 vertical



                                                    their masts form                                 a pile of spines



                    (hulls from above                             hulls from the waterline)



lash and oar                                                                                     green prow curves



                                    return to the peripheral



sky offering                                                                     floating debris



                an atlas                     marked with shores



sinking                                       continually slower and slower






THE COLLECTED ESCAPES



who                                      preoccupied with mysticism
sews into pocket or pouch
charms                             (a stone                 a coin
                knots in the right hand)
suggesting a sum of threads                       spells


our home’s collected escapes


uttered incantations
                wrapped in date palm
                              tossed into a well
                                              blown over a body


                              small photo of the Wonder Wheel
                              shot by Karl on a rainy morning years ago
                              tipped into a tiny square tin frame
                              guards the entry

                                                                        with an evil eye
                                                                        Susy hung one morning


                a hand-painted sign over my desk


                                               ADMISSION $1.00


                extracted during Minneapolis
                burlesque parlor demolition


evils and impurities
stitched along a length of black ribbon
                                 appear before judgement
                                               before sackcloth
oil blotches left padding
                                               alongside blood flecks on the cuffs


red napkin pinned to the creosote
board (quivers in the room’s airflow)
its curled corner gestures outward
to a third                                           dimension handwritten
Yoruban proverb from Soleida Rios


                                               Pájaro que huye Morir de Noche
                                               Cae de Mañana


                                                               the bird who flees to die at night
                                                               falls tomorrow


atop the bookcase a black matte
record sleeve (without record)
                SOUNDS
                OF SELF-
                HYPNOSIS
                THROUGH
                RELAX
                -ATION
A DOCUMENTARY RECORDING WITH MRS.
LEE B. STEINER. CERTIFIED
PSYCHOLOGIST

CORDING HAVE BEEN VALIDATED WITH

on the mantel brown glass elixir bottles


                        sulfato de sodio purism en pulvo
                        lino semillas
                        urotopina schering


driftwood from the north shore of Lake Superior
and a paper men’s suit in a box
which I was told would bring
good luck if I set it ablaze
