ITERLOGUE (5

Expensive curtain dropped
on a scene for one purpose

X in grass playing oddly
given a chance for friendly

escape even doldrums
regard as energy at the peak

Expression suddenly far out
into absent reverse zone

with edges of violent action
that has made an obvious

decision throwing text down
and over projected balance

Support role conducive to
nature behind thick glass

treading rhythm necessary
to incessant buzz of traffic

spread over massive critical
holes in a bridge of thawed ice

ITERLOGUE (4

Crazy about wanderings
that seldom dare to leave
mental cubicle holding self
I didn’t feel sorry for

Longing instead of moving
around in crowds
could survive like me
in a dream and alone

Encounters require nuance
more than visiting attended

Bent down by light from
a jolt under two trees
parallel branches form
an arch for wires scorched
like clouds in the breach

mixed with soot and birds
to avoid deserted platform
as I say it now appears

ITERLOGUE (3

Drive or be driven along
grievance repeated,
do target detail between
apples on shoulders

Feel scream run through
body silence that anyone
can have by accident

Protest ready at hand
distributes ungainly order
for all disparity

A group like dirt truck
heavy on each other’s back,
huddling under flag raised
in a gleam forgotten

ITERLOGUE (2

Framed need or wrinkled
wish that cannot be fulfilled

In the long run only pause
while existence has never

been more than dread good
getting used to static before

a transformation confused
with bushes leaves no trace

in the wind-ruffled prints of
bare feet and legs outstretched

on the move dumping facts
that give the impression of

a spacious landscape in the
windows hazy from smoke

while in reality air itself is
a forest of fading barriers

built up with transmitters
tempting manifold forms

determined to go by instinct
to judge demand returning

from a nearby market feeling
impossible attempt made

at communication during
torrent from book still closed

ITERLOGUE (1

Seeing eyes of screen which erupt
at regular intervals on command

Snatches of monotone humming
path to impediment flanked by

crutches at the back of an unlit room
Burning half darkness shows issue

spotted with mold as though the
structure had been broken and

resealed under vague threat
of a single point just beyond
