Of synesthesia as certain small
Mysteries continue
To animate the instant and you are
As much thrown
Into it as you can be
Said to own
Any contingency in its improbable
Production, this morning I dreamt I
Was looting the house
Of a former reality
Television runner-up only
To be squealed
On by the rich kids, my books
Are yawing atop
The green nightstand
The flow of thought does not
Follow a fallow
Plain, the plan of the day
Is to let desire more or less trump
The mere pleasures
Of fact as the squat woman
On the train garbles
Obscenities of gender and the car
Precipitously buoys as she
Makes to leave before
Abruptly returning through the pursed
Black lips of the door, yellow
Is calling out
To brown, warbling trapezoids
Stalk the stoop-ridden
Periphery for warmth, the stubble
Of winter razors
Foward and I feel more
Comfortable amongst the indefinite
Articles, I feel no
Relief in the parentheses
Dictated by men, when I was a child
I wrote body is where
The knowledge comes from and now it has come
Time for me to choose
A different body, one that intercorporeates
The world as one
Would hold the pattern
Of words unresolved, each a plane
Which normal consciousness
Does not reach, intervals
Where the absolutely new revives
Its excitation and yet I can’t
Get the image of the man on the bike
Smashing into the cab
Door I had just opened out
Of my mind, or is it my mind out
Of the image as the sun
Has left us in a prematurity
Of night
