The Horror Poem

2006-03-31 Thread Uh Ak






Since the seashore tomb too horrible to go. Also the seashoremud fallen and is desolated. A child below hats with a stoop to bend-low. Sitting down AND also moving toes.
Ships under a flag lean to the cycle.E-v-e-n Cannot Cry.

Found Xeroxed Folk Poem (at a Coffee Shop in Gresham)

2006-02-23 Thread Lanny Quarles
one night i had a dream
a strange occurence
dark and mean
a dream about our leader's fall:

the executioner has put on
his best red velvet hood
his smart tuxedo
looking good

the axe is shiny
curved in space
to part the head
with loving grace

the leader's chains
clink on the wood
his face is proud
what a weird dude

the redcapped masses
howl and pitch
but the executioner
will make no glitch

no missed attempt
no sidling glance
this human chicken
will not dance

this wretched pilot
was taken down
proletariat promethu
rage unbound

but at the last
the executioner sighs
unbinds the leader
and slaps his thighs

he slaps his head
he slaps his mouth
he slaps his face
he slaps his pout

the leader weeps
and the audience sighs
what the fuck
is up with this guy

now do you see
how all this feels
we don't want this
on our real

the leader nods
he understands
the executioner
shakes his hand

you work for us
not for our things
we want to help
not murder kings

the leader sobs
the band strikes up
a doggy prances
a newborn pup

a woman sings
in high clear notes
the nation cheers
and casts new votes

the moral of this tale
leader is this
don't lie to us
or we'll be pissed.

then I awoke
and was frightened still
I am some strange bloke
I need a pill.

slup:  dang throat I hosed, I lungish, my held the belt he cusp, I came, steady

yes my pee's room, for all I saw dust was, so I layed those bugs, taped my 
tail, yes my mail's laid, in my pockets I felt the leaking, before I came you 
scribbled here and dribbled after, bird sluffs down twitched head little dusty 
bugs press against the glitter-wall where I thought I drink but stared:  like 
my dream's sinking to the astral mothers, I need to breathe I stared, my boat's 
in you or lip yclept, fallows was I cloned to you surpation spread me, glance 
on me I'm Dawn and Socks, orange balls throbbing in smoke, I was sighed with, 
breathed outside the lens or faced my fairly hair of lifting, oh I renewed 
and, I ask myself, Will I ever be?  I'm crouched beneath the grape arbor 
watching a refrigerator burn in the yard, My tone ignited off sleep or face, 
how'd I hoping my eyes under that faltered lust, wristed moon you masticate my 
calendar's crumpled ball, your ash on chair I floated pages and, I fingered 
noise and night, your pleasant foam improvement rains my belly flags, place 
your nets across my belly for the stains removes, Oh how-de-I o'er 'er raring 
thighs flailing a thrust -- fire I could claim but window, spoonish dribble you 
I train inhales, Spit it out I urge, thighs flowing past my head desired

That is the conflict. I must confess, I am fascinated by the
ambiguity/acuity, stumbling across a stone, a poem, mostly
indecipherable, knowledge obscured, critical information masked,
buried. Archeological clues, left to the viewer to interpret, to
deconstruct, to reconstruct, the poem as landscape, language carved in
stone, permanence, immortality, transience, the unfathomable detritus
of communication? The lyrical made concrete, isn?t that poetry?

Thanks for asking Alan.

Yes, I agree with you - the issue in an odd way is the 'hook' - perhaps if
more were legible. As it is, one (I'm speaking of course only for myself
here) sees it as a stone-to-be-deciphered, but by an archaeologist, not by
me, i.e. the reader of the image; not enough is present... - Alan

Farewell Tookie: Food For Thought Is Better Than A Meal
By KRS-One

“They killed the teacher!” said Snoop Dogg at the funeral services for
Stanley Tookie Williams December 20 at the Bethel A.M.E. Church in Los
Angeles. Rev. Jesse Jackson, Bruce Gordon, Minister Tony Muhammad, Stan
Muhammad, Rev. Dr. Lewis E. Logan II, Minister Lewis Farrakhan and Tony
Robbins all listened as Snoop Dogg brought the packed Church to its feet
with a poem dedicated to Tookie entitled “Till We Meet Again.” One line
that caught my attention was when Snoop said, “Food for thought is
better than a meal.” This phrase stuck with me, because it reminded me
of man may not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedth
from the mouth of the lord and coming from Snoop showed a level of
maturity that I wish his Girls Gone Wild, pimps-up-hoes-down, gangsta
nigga audiences would adopt.

And I am NOT being critical of Snoop at all! I’ve been watching Snoop
settle his beefs with others, start programs in the hood for at-risk
youth, seek God and denounce gang-banging publicly. But this is my
point. When has a man done enough to be called rehabilitated? What must
one do to be actually free from past wrongs? When is a man truly forgiven?

I arrived at the Bethel A.M.E. Church to a beautiful scene. Several
blocks before we got to the Church helpful, pleasantly spoken,
informative Black and Brown police officers were stationed at strategic
corners directing traffic toward the Church. When we arrived at the
Church we were greeted by the Fruit of Islam (F.O.I.) and escorted to
the press balcony. There was literally nowhere else to be. Even members
of Stanley Tookie Williams’ family were in the press balcony! When this
was discovered, Rev. Dr. Logan II requested that the first ten rows of
people give up their seats to these additional members of the Williams
family and everyone promptly did what was asked.

The Church was so packed that many people were in another room outside
of the main knave watching the proceedings on a huge flat screen
television. When I walked into this room I saw Tookie on the screen
saying, “If a man must fight, let it be to the death against the beast
within himself. Win that battle? No man, no woman, no racial hatred, no
system, no vindictiveness, and no Machiavellianism can ever defeat you!
And then he said on behalf of the children; teach them how to avoid our
destructive foot steps. Teach them to strive for a higher education.
Teach them to promote peace. And teach them to focus on rebuilding the
neighborhoods that you, others and I helped to destroy.” And I can’t
front, I was renewed even in my own spirit. To know that one of the most
significant outlaw figures in modern American history went from criminal
minded to spiritual minded gives all of us (especially those on the
frontlines of ministry work, counseling, mentoring and rehabilitation
work) hope in the transformation of the human heart. That our work is
not done in vain.

I was totally impressed with the organization and security of the F.O.I.
Hundreds of people was jammed in the Church with even more people
outside trying to get in yet the Church and the whole block itself
(Western Ave) was at peace. It was beautiful.

But as beautiful as it was, the Church was still teeming with suspicion
as to why a completely rehabilitated man could not be offered at least
life in prison? How was Tookie (the co-founder of the famous street gang
the Crips) who spent 24 years in prison, wrote nine anti-violence,
anti-gang, anti-drug children’s books, received an honorary Doctor of
Humane Letters degree from St. Moses the Black Theological Seminary, was
nominated six times for the Nobel Peace Prize, and received the
Presidential Call to Service Award from President George W. Bush for his
volunteer efforts to help steer youth away from gang life not
rehabilitated? There’s even an award-winning movie starring Jamie Foxx
entitled “Redemption: The Stan Tookie Williams Story” that teaches the
path of rehabilitation and forgiveness. All of this, in addition to his
website and phone

Unwoven poem


To possess and demodulate a cipher
wallowing on the wings of an interleaf
where nodes of another exhaust discern
the bloodsucking sextants of interspersed beings
(rhizome, corm, tuber) on the cylindrical coils
of a mucked up rotten disk
swallowing a dash of burnt umber
in one gulp ::

To flax with the gibes of a gaseous hatchel
slinging sticky spatter around
without even one inhaled hyphen
of secreted xococ xocolatl in sight ::

To flog the vestige of a dumpy rod
with a hollow core memory intensifying
a magnetic field by the windings of
an asexual splitting into fragments
of fissional unicellular nuclei
cleaving to a double curve
with the shape of an elongated S ::

To minify a hollow cosmogonic floating point
soaked in a chasm of piteous non-linear eardrums
shafting the flue of a conical utensil that mooches off
the act of embodying an incorporeal fucklessness
that emits a fickle shininess precipitated by the folioing
of what palliates unnumbered leaves
drenched in the slickest intervening
of adroit slipperiness ::

Smote sent me this, seems he's trying out my recent sonnet
form:


Whip


With the sardines of your neighbors
those very pretty plastic balls like
hosers on the shore strong models of your
jungle verbiage in the cellphone lake

Lick every entity

Organ hand and legless jokes some
jackoff zoo with puddles of cough syrup you
stirred the long mud clues and stacked
gum smokes, the eggless hands and doormen

Lentils’ heavy dick

Cake dome hell on the swim curbbage’s bumbled
glove your yodels snore the bomb closers
petting every wall in spastic clothes: oh
neighing floor of hard beans: “the whip”!

In that all of us went on.

The boat dances

 Political Philosophical Poem*

Be affected by phenomena.
Leave numbness to the dead. They like it.
So it belongs to them.
Show them the money
And they laugh loudly or quietly
The more and more of it you show.
When your miracle
Turns out to be a wet napkin,
Did you renounce your mistake
Or continue promoting it and yourself?
The art of conversation
Requires a basic understanding of silence.
Few talkers grasp this.
But you may learn it if you try.
If the name of your magnum opus
Sounds like a restaurant,
Where do you go from here?
Suspicious awareness
Has always been an oxymoron
Except when one's life is in immediate danger.
Blow smoke rings around your hopes
Before they vanish.
The absolute dictatorship of time
Disintegrates when placed in your hands.
How you handle your own name
May or may not involve saying and signing.
In this battle of the titans
All the false gods fall.

He needs to see it close.

The next minute it's another joy.
Still, they were enough to be his face.

really like the 'I've lost it' refrain here. a lot of people, myself
included, have worked off of gaming - this refrain is really strong - I do
think it's a bit weakened by the gaming context, and I'd leave out the
other statements, inventory, etc. - alan

THE MOSQUITO
By Phan Van Tri 

O mosquito, you're blessed with all nice things!
What do you lack? Why buzz and still complain?
You've rested on jade mats and ivory beds.
You've stroke and kissed rouged lips or powdered cheeks.
You've spared no children, pampering your mouth.
You've hurt poor people, glutting up your paunch.
When a good swatter someday comes to hand,
I'll pay you for your crimes without a blink!
(Vietnam) 
 


They hang the man and flog the woman
That steal the goose from off the common,
But let the greater villain loose
That steals the common from the goose. 

".at a time when I am speaking to you about the paradox of desire -- in the 
sense that different goods obscure it -- you can hear outside the awful language
of power. There's no point in asking whether they are sincere or hypocritical, 
whether they want peace of whether they calculate the risks. The dominating 
impression as such a moment is that something that may pass for a prescribed
good; information addresses and captures impotent crowds to whom it is poured 
forth like a liquor that leaves them dazed as they move toward the slaughter house. 
One might even ask if one would allow the cataclysm to occur without first giving
free reign to this hubbub of voices"








Tosca Poem

2005-09-28 Thread Thomas savage
 Poem*

Mrs. Overcoat has a theatrical memory.
When the statue wiggles, don't mistake it for a wink.
For every key there is a dooor.
A bath may be on order soon.
Recognize harmony and join in.
Aha, they cry together,
Touch-appointing for grownups.
Not so up close but still very personal,
Spectaculary brief like most things
Remember as glorious peaks.
One grown-old wife thinks you're another's complaints.
"Libertine", a word I've never used before.
In a free country,
What stops me, I wonder,
But not for long.
The usher gets to sing in the chorus.
A young Michel Simon as Scarpia
Might seem a bit strange.
But in the new old world we see today,
It could happen.

Dust off that statue.
You needn't make it smile all the time.
Imperfect life with real people
Smiles only as it sings.
The raid of life
Runs through all kinds of waters.
Die, go, before we dissolve.
My ultimate thanks
May be from children to come
Whom I will never see.
Lucidity and levity walk hand in hand.
What direction they take
Is up to you and to me, too.
We carry enough scars with us
As it is. Let us
Leave them aside now and proceed.

 since milosz write that
 
 it's not a found pome

i would say that is precisely what is at stake.  but maybe it's not a
very good poem.

it is awful about the vonneguts steve, i'm so sorry.  

galapagos is supposedly written on the air by a ghost's finger.

Hmm, maybe a vonnegut-signed ruin, if you've got
one around.

found on the roof. But, as a name, it wears three star pendants, but no 
long, upturned nose. The glyph changes into a long-nosed star creature when 
set on the huipil of the middle figure. She also has a "star emerging from a 
star" crown or headband. The second female wears an eagle with long feathers 
that, because the name glyph above her contains a clear scroll effect, 
probably indicates "fire."and fire is the louse on the

the waters of the lake (as in Lamina 14), it would then become a fish. 
Mental transitions such as these, illustrated as simple line graphics

to be primitive.

Pipa Poem

2005-07-29 Thread Thomas savage
 Twnga Twang
 For Min Xiao-Fen

Play me a koto, a lute, or a pipa
But emphasize the distaff, off-staff notes, please.
Someday you'll play like this, Merry
If you spend a couple of happy lives
At the koto factory.
So hit that box, too. John Cage kisses you.
All ancestors descend to our ceiling.
It is a healing all angels endure.
Grace is the primary element in sound.
So dot...dot. . . . dot
 Tom Savage

A few moments of mandolin.
A couple of days at the 20th century harpsichord.
It all adds up to sweet air.
Good gods borrow; great gods used to steal, ahem.
You shook your box. I shake your hand.
Even if the medium is only some intermediary space,
Kimio Eto and some old pipa players
Whose names I currently do not know
Bless you with their outstretched, glowing eyes.

Found Poem Lost In Translation

I found a poem.
Then I lost it.
If you know where I left, ,
Send it right back to me.
The border crossing guards will help you.
They may be Muses or extraterrestrials
But they know their jobs
And are sober enough to see.
Real mothers find poems in their babies' teeth.
Fathers may have to look elsewhere.
Godfather poets get hired and fired.
Last born; first reborn.
This revolving door between lives
Accommodates almost all.
If all you know is media,
You may need a mediator between you and life.
You can choose between an angel,
A devil, a priest, or a lover.
Only one may prove qualified.
It's up to you to decide whom
To trust your present  future life to.
Be sure to leave a tip before dying.
You may be assured more ease the next time.

I refound the lost
Found poem I lost in translation.
Someone left it for me
At the Lost-And-Found:

The midwife had
A midlife crisis
In the midst of
A video arcade.

Where have all
The subtitles gone?
Long time passing out
And in,
Then vanishing
Into water-fat air.
