                I want to write  
            like an open wound could
           no one can  stare  and  prepare
                the untapped hood
            of a dark dressing room
               with the stains on the ceiling
          of a cremated  superstar
                    lost without a  meaning
               gravy  sort of human be(ing)

            was  there supposed to  be
               a story telling  need
               my   patient preist
              my    pregnant pun

           the certain arch  to my  back
            an opening called a  mouth    
                   as wide as  any vow
             now let the sound show you how

no longer afraid of the dark
       or mid day shadows  
nothing so ridiculously
     teenage and desperate
