this is the poem told to me by the boy Medusa told things to in ancient times; the hair poets wanting the sky to be as real as a cat & cold in the street making for the door to the room left open w/ the stars full of live ******* mouths in black seamed stockings; finding a trace of blood & thinking instantly of red hearts walking, yeh & writing beneath the mind's ugly money used to set the sea on fire w/ the phosphorous blue remains of dead baby Americans; Igor's kids in space feeling but not hearing the Russian calls to truth in the spirit of the times; the nightclub where the blondes are better cuz the lady is at war inside her head etched in high notes; going to the window w/ her hands on her father's hips; hearing guys outside dancing, she latches onto the sweet female's great truth, walking in on the ***** whose ***** falls like stone talking to the future of freeze-dried death & eating souls so ***** while writing bad mirror images of boys ***** & deep smelling like wives; yellow children wail for their mothers; becoming stars whose lives return to speaking Cantonese only when her drunk son calls; waiting to work in the perfect place to turn pretty gay rolling & dancing in heaven w/ blind faces; walking, skipping, leaving her dreams to keep laying in bed sure to be loved by the three ***** & wet lesbians eating cool Christian pink; thee's story that of a goddess' voice wearing ****, lipstick & mascara; america's ghost filled w/ holy beauty is a painting of buttsex unseen
