Once, when we were both driving playgrounds
up to blackness where a blue narcissist heals the eye
We'd stumble upon nearly everything
High as a tower built by different languages
I scraped my knees on the tapestry
laid out obnoxiously on the demented routine
And you'd disapprove of the scenery
Overfed flowers with ancient machinery
We've been eating peaches under the circle
We cannot see
We live by what the river said to us
"Oh my creatures of flesh and heiroglyph
Throw yourselves in the heat and burn motherly fine"
I recall when we, laughing violently,
viewed the overblown mirror until we agreed
to loiter in the architecture we handsomely vandalized
with unknown signatures
Why did we think we were permanent?
Summoning Marys who, onward, accordingly sang
And you disapproved of the miracle
Naked on the roof, your confession was lyrical
We've been eating peaches under the circle
We cannot see
We live by what the river said to us
"Oh my creatures of flesh and heiroglyph
Throw yourselves in the heat and burn motherly fine"
Raise our purring hands to the moon and sigh
Like the cats we once housed, temporarily
And when the outflow from the cavity
takes on the form of a stranger one evening...
