Tore The Root

{GREAT WHITE JUDGMENT}

To Be Disposed 
Of Immediately
The Body Kept Going 

All On Its Own.


No Pilots This Time,
They Abandoned All Cargo
And Remaining Crew.

The Parts Of The Body
Moved Further Down 

Toward The Back.

Fell Again To This New Change
In The Reverse Direction.

One Half and Another Also A Double
Coloring Conclusions Existence

An Object Of Knowledge,
Not Yet Come With Ease.
Conversely, We Are Said To Be Such
And Such Because Of These.


Even Though A Name 
Exists For The Reference
To Something Else,
For We Mean A Knowledge 

Of A Preference.

{1000 YEARS NATIONS JUDGED}

Traces Of Those Deep Cuts,
Lie Thickly Upon 

Some Desolate Avenue.

You Were More Beautiful
Than Anything In This World.


Until That Day.

What Happens From This Day Forward.
That Seems To Be 

The Whispered Question.

And When Does It End?
Watching Timepieces
That We Call Watches.

Do They Watch Us?

When I Am Heard,
And What I Say Is Solely Explanatory.
And If You Want An Argument
Then Disagree With It.

You're Always Blurring The Terrain.
From Observations
Laying On The Ground.
Watching Their Bellies Bloat.

You're Minds Out Cold,
Instantaneously.
Not Where Lamps Are Lit.
Writhing Their Stunted Limbs
On The Matter Of Snow
Here Both Of Us Have Grasped.
And Her Chosen Square Of Worlds.
Even As They Walk Around.

Still, Snow Haze 

Gleams Like Sand.
But You Think 

Your So Much 
Better Than That.

{THE NEW HEAVEN & EARTH REVERSAL}

While Mindlessly Staring Into The Sea
My Mind Began To Drift Off
And Somehow Came To Rest On You

I Found Myself Thinking Of Your Lips
Wistfully Trying To Replicate Your Hips


To Imagine Having Them Once Again Pressed To Mine
It's Almost As Though I've Forgotten 
How They'd Feel
How You'd Feel

How The World 
Would Drift Away
And I'd Be Safe And Warm
Lost Within You
Surrounded By You
Content In Your Arms
When There Was No Where Else In The World
I Would Have Cared To Have Been

Just With You
There
Like That

It's Almost As Though 
I've Forgotten
Almost

{BABYLON 1000 YEARS; ETCHED ON THE WALL}

There Is No Time Like The Present
Looks Like A Mess
The Closer You Look At The Letters.

Each Tiny Little Paint Chip.
Each Little Color Particle.

Crowds Of Onlookers Of Nothing Special.
Littered Spectacles Of Anti-Social Tendencies

That Final Routine Before They Put Us In The Ground.
A Feeling That We Are In This For The Long Haul.
The Never-Ending Road To Eternity.

{REFLECT ION}

Down In A Fussy Castle
Made Of Old Pasteboard And Wire
Looking In All The Windows
Trying To Wipe The Sting Out
A Pocket-Handkerchief
I Have Witnessed It Too

Through The Windows With The Bars
I Think He Knows It
He's Seen Me Here Before
He Pretends He Doesn't Know

{4TH SEAL: 4TH VIAL: 4TH TRUMPET}

I Tried To Send You Little Messages,
Right From The Beginning.
But Your Ears Never Twitched.
Artificial Arrested Motion Switched.
Change Unreadable Under Unaware.
Widened My Eyes.
Disaffected Movements Of Nightly Routine
Ears Ever Pricked.
Spy Vs Spy
Sending Out Messages.
My Hand Like A Jack-Knife
Launched Each Mission
A Wishful Puff Of Breath.

What Happened Between My Palm
Your Pointed Ears,
Messages Have Grown Grotesque
Flown Through A Radiation Field
Infested Waters, 

Too Close To A Toxic Wasted Dump
Grown Odd Legs.
Eyes Must Have Bulged
What Happened
Didn't Look Like That When The Left Me.
They Looked As I Envisioned Them.
They Looked Like Perfume.
Shaped And Colored Especially For Your Reception,
So That You Would Know
I Understood That You Could Sight Scent.

{TWO WITNESSES SLAIN & THEN RAISED}

Sees A Mirror For Which He Does Not Understand.
Sees His Reflection But Does The Reflection See Him.
Does The Reflection Share The Same Thoughts
Views As He Stares At Himself Staring At Himself.
Mirror Changes Into A Window
Looks Right Through.
The Other Side
The Mirror
Once Outside Of.
Inside This Room Is Everything He Ever Thought Of.
There Are Doctors.
Time For Your Surgical Implementation.
This Is Who You Will Be,
Not Who You Are.
This Is That Place And Time
Where You Think You Know What Is Going On.
Then The Room Has Changed.
No one Is Here Anymore.
Where They There To Begin With?

Posters On The Wall
Signs Of Sexual Obsession.
Body Aches All These Things.
Trading Reality For Fantasy
Doesn't Seem To Be The Way To Go.
More Familiar. More Comfortable.
Little Effort


There Are At Least Results Displayed.
Watch. 

This Was You Many Years Ago.
The Whole World Came Undone All Around You
You Just Sat There And Watched It All Fall Down.
Swimming In No Water With One Arm Flapping.
One Arm Surviving. One Arm Dying.
The Window Shut And We Are Back On The Inside Looking Out.
We Are Back In The Paradox World That Once Was Reality.
Spoon Bends In Our Closed Mouths.

{3RD SEAL: 3RD VIAL: 3RD TRUMPET}

Inside Everywhere
Something Goes On
Looking Into The Machine
Where All Things Are
Lubrication Starts The Cogs
The Wheels Start Spinning
A Violent Hum
Working Together
Against Each Other
They Are Friend And Foe
The Same Exact 

Moment Of Time
Strings Attached

Is There Someone 

That Just Helps Us To Pass The Time?
Is There Something 

That keeps Us Stimulated In Our Mind?

Cogs Still Move
Strings Are Cut
Let Loose It Goes

Monstrosities Gut
This Great Machine
Ladders Fall Short
Any Possibility For Escape
The light Is Outside
No One Is Home

Tiptoe Towards Unknown
Window Opens And There Is A Box
A Mannequin Inside Of It
Mannequin Is The One 

Thought To Be In Charge


Footsteps Rush Past Us
No One Is Seen Running
Everyone Is Trying To Escape 

Because They Can
It’s the easiest way Out

But Not The Easiest Way In

There's No Escape
Time Stands Still
What Do We Do
Destroy Time
Destroying This Place
Light Is A Being
I Thought I Understood

Put One Of The Escapees
Small Wooden Box
Faint Winds Blow
Crackle Wheat Grass Decaying
Sound Of Pins Dropping
Attack Each Other
Inches From Their Success
Light Shines Our Heroes 

Face From The Distance
Thought He Was Alone
Machine Moves Slower Now
Machine Slowly Stopping
Machine Is Decaying And Dying
Gear Feeble Attempts 

To Keep Going; Stop It; Undo. 


A Character We All Know Too Well.
If A Light Is Shining Through 
A Wall Do We Look?
Even When We Do Look 

It Is As If Time Is Going Backwards Now.
Buildings Rebuilding Themselves
Old Life Forms Undying And Returning.
Machine Attacking Itself
The Midst Of That Inch Of Safety
Try With All Their Might To Rip Each Other Apart.

{SHADOW CAST}

Sounds Paused
One Life Of The Many Continued
Shadows Lives Were Being Lived
The Rest Of Us Slept

Stricken With Insomnia
Runs As Fast As He Can
Down Cobblestone Roads

Stands On The Corner
A Street Waiting For A Train 

That Will Not Come
Leaves On A Tree Blows Sullenly
Ghost Train Approaches
Train We Never Thought Would Come.
Our Hero Boards.
Where It Will Take Him, 

He Does Not Know.
Whole World Is On Pause
We Are Traveling By Night 

To See Its Affects.
Leaves On The Trees 

Are In Half Mode
Carried By The Wind.
Shadows The Same.
In Transit.

Looks Out Of A Window
A Ladder Descends
Wires Are Sleeping
The Whole World Is On Pause
You Don't Know What To Do
You Don't Know Why All The Other Time
Ceasing To Exist And You Are Still In Transit
Trees Have No Leaves

Things Do Not Seem To Flourish
When Everything That Happens 

Has No Correspondence.
Nothing Can Be Recorded
Can’t Decipher When We Last Knew.
In This World Everything Is Confusing.
Everything Is Chaos.
Even This Ghost City
With Its Ghost Trains And
Its Ghost Shadows.

Board The Ghost Train To See Where It Is Going
A Clock In The Distance But It Doesn’t Tell Us Anything.
It Was Once Eleven-Thirty
Locked Stares And Locked Life.
Pictures Of The Past Tell Us Nothing
In This World Nothing Really Exists
You Don’t Even Know If It Ever Really Did.

Vessels Stuck In A Vast Darkness.
Ghost Train Still Travels.
Finds No Reason To Exist In This Time.

Lies There In His Room
Waiting For Life To End.
Nothing Flourishes In Stagnancy.

{144,000 WITNESSES SEALED}

Eyes Move
Across The Room
The Spreading Of A Malignant Cell
Spreading This Cancerous Disease.
Hollowing Out The Wounds.

Our Hero Is Broken And Tired.
Staring At The World Around Us
And Watching The Course Take Its Path.

Its Pattern.

Watching The Magnets Fuck
Because Of Their Attraction

Hands Move Because The Slave
Brain Tells The Impulse To.

Targets Are Never Really Too Far
From Where You Think They Should Be.

Eyes Are Overwhelmed
The Music In The Background Is Playing Slowly.
Notes Take On A Life All Their Own.

Wounds We Pick And Want To Destroy
There They Are Stealing Our Control,
In The Out Of Control Lives That We Live.

We Can Try Our Hardest To Eradicate
They Only Build,
A Legacy All Its Own.

{WARNING AGAINST TAKING MARK OF THE REVERSAL}

Asteroids Meditate,
Fighter Pilots Crash
Can’t Seem To Relate
Beyond Grains Of Sand

Freezing Cold Water
Scythe Towards Death
Nothing To Understand
Standing At The Gate

Sinks Beyond Emotion,
Infinite Pity Person Of Origin,

Uncomplaining Hero
Drains The Cup Of Suffering Virtue.
The Great Heart Of Man

Only Love And The Fields 
And The Bright Face Of Danger,
Only Sacrifice And Death 

And Unmerited Suffering
Humbly Supported

Touch In Us The Vein Of Poetic Truth And Irony.
To Think Of Them, We Long To Try Them,
Humbly Hopeful That We May Prove Heroes Also.

I Am Unknown
The One And Only Synthesis.

I Am Thought Empire.

{2ND SEAL: 2ND VIAL: 2ND TRUMPET}

Discontinue The Alarm
Rapidity Topped Harm

Twenty Feet From The Hull,
Died Out Of Foraging Lull

Not Diving Under-Water
monsterous depth slaughter

Brilliancy Abate
Suddenly The Gate,

Brilliant Emanation
Derived From Sensation

Expedition In Question
Fission Confession

Enterprise Hazardous
Pursuit The Animal
Capable Of Sinking

She Was A Night Of Great Speed,
Fitted With High-Pressure Thoughts
Capable Of Thinking

Exhilarating Glow Throughout His Body
Clearness Of Brain And Gaiety Of Spirit

Still, He Entered When The Bell Rang
And It Rang And Hung A Halo To Hear It

{1ST SEAL: 1ST VIAL: 1ST TRUMPET}

Whether These Pockmarks Of Wounds
Will Control These Unlocking Steps.

Whether An Asteroid Halters
For Undefined Footsteps

With Backfiring Falters
Decimations Will Dwarf

Carried My Heart Abrade
Immersed The Lagoon Mutation;
Just Sat There To Wade

Deaf On Hearings 

Never Heard
Straining Of Drivers

Finally Drive Off
Without One Word.

Afraid You Will Go Nearly Crazy
When You Read My Letter.

We Got Plenty Of Time To Die,
Let’s Just Do This Better

Turned Expectation Objects
To Objects Of Doubt.

To Watch Your Smile
Frown Down And Pout.

Even When Driving Down 

A Perfectly Straight Road,
It Is Necessary To Turn
The Steering Wheel 

From Time To Time

{QUIETS ON FIRE}

Arrived

With A Piece Of Mind
That Lost The Thoughts To Think
My Clocks At A Stand-Still
My Heart Softly Sinks

And Its Fidgeting By The Time
That Your Home

And Its Budgeting 

By The Time
That Your Gone

Left

My Shining Moon Sleeps
My Burning Star Blazes
While Your White Ghost Weeps

From The Museums

My photo
Brooklyn, NY, United States
EVERYTHING.
