from Black River Ghosts

the echo slowly consumed with you
waking caked with crackling moods
after transparent songs drift down the rain-wrung streets

a passage of moonfrosted cars

the field i first dropped acid in
says strong winds bring back her fathers hands
during import of our parents’ flaws
after faintness attains translucency
the scented epinephrine
whirling down upon zen-peaked roofs

says this and says that
after amphetamine spells your blood

from Black River Ghosts

the field with the astonished moon
says the music the music
after faintness attains translucency
in abandoned department stores numbers corpse and peel
voices of the shattered parking lot
crushing through smoky grades of icy slush
after troubled silence
licks the waves leave you with
waking to a health that burns
moon weeping into the roll of black river
