the article as biographical blurb [2012]

          "Parts for the writing on the stove,
         at rates that twin their touches bare in memory typology.
         Every one's a snare."
                       -- Clark Coolidge

there is a centenary hovering here
hampering an open field    a justice
but writing is not observed in cubicles
or in a bathroom stall with Saori

leave this limping fabric its lust
like loose is only one acquaintance
manifest as the figure of a rooster
fisted at the foot of the bed

one reads the rental and the rhythm
rounds corridors into an orifice of Coolidge
and where pages are simply whispers
wonders are found     snared

these tight babies     born of tumult
skirt the issues of shit-strung stock
inhabiting occasions of malice
like so many heartbreaks     or tunes

I am a beatbird     and a Starkweather other
lungs strummed as constellations of foil
and this polyhedron is smiling faces
ornate     against monochromatic frowns

or another word is me
the world's strongest man    or an icicle
this is where     stretched beneath precious lines
blame is bowing bridges for leaping

interminable is recollection lumped
while realigning knowledge is weighted
and attention is unavoidable     enormous
as fluting phrases reach the habitat truth

initial me here     in a snoring reflection
a typology trespassing and diurnal
my miracles are unframed gestures mentioned
as empathies     or abatements
