Dance On The Windowsil And Thank Every Dog And Cat
I'm speeding
I'm racing
Blood in my veins is napalm
I'm headless and spineless
Watch from above or from
Inside or behind blue eyes or from a
Crater the shape of a whole life in the middle of my skull
Smack in the center like another earth's core
Solid iron and nickel, an alloy
In the center of a pale blue dot, a
crater: empty, voluminous, enough to hold
Medical bills drop a class write poems get internship Sexton Blake.
Watched this body
Waving arms and legs, an orangutan, a Dalmatian, emaciated, infantile
Dressed in my mountain chic finest
Walking back and forth, drinking more coffee
Sacrificed
Bleeding
Leaved a trail like a slug or a murderer
Think blank
Cratered head under a microscope appears exactly as the
Grid on the chalkboard, each
Box filled with a single letter exactly as the grid on the
Window
Thin, rectangular, high on the wall, a sliver
Boxes section it off into
Panes: sheets of paper, yellow legal pads, a notebook
Whispers of brick at the edge: sharp, asymmetrical
A million shades of red to mirror a million clouds lazing by
Directionless, come and go like thoughts
From grey to blue and white last week the hills were ablaze
They come into the field enormous and singular as
Whales or continents, and
Soon enough, shatter and drift apart happily and wisp away and reform and join fronts and pass on Past the bars and finally the razor brick
Why care about anything, the board reads, underlined
Deja vu hits like a fucking truck and
I'm on my knees clutching at a bronze belt buckle, lavender walls enclose
Dance on the windowsill and thank every dog and cat
Dance on the windowsill and thank all the dogs and cats
My head's split open like a crater Look at me
Under a microscope
Look at me
I walked around and around the block
Saying relax to myself out loud
Like some type of freak
Dance on the windowsill and thank every dog and cat
Every dog and cat
Thank every dog and every single cat
Please dance on the windowsills and thank all the dogs and cats
I'm racing
Blood in my veins is napalm
I'm headless and spineless
Watch from above or from
Inside or behind blue eyes or from a

Solid iron and nickel, an alloy
