Staying In or Going Out

staying-in or going-out

The sidewalk never ends [although it may seem to break at times] crumble of asphalt, caked bits

crack of a chunk kicked carelessly unconscious epidermis of the razor edge of earth’s crust

\BUILT UPON

kicked carelessly by the step in a shadow of a storybook hero, unknown to him/herself

along the never-ending sidewalk

intra-terminal limen

things cross over on burnt rubber: the city is so noisy at intersections when crossroads are

both sacred and commercial

the soles of the tarbaby tap the sidewalk that never ends

moving out

striking out on its own

who thought it was steetwise and knew the love-words les mots d’amour

Return to Kerkstreet

floating on the figured bass

who recalled les amants d’un jour

it was the same way she moved through the museum, almost in a

crying mood: look down,

you see a painted sea

look up,

you see the sculpted mountains marbled into people, wondrous quarry

outside the world of sculpted towers looking down cooking down the brazen peaks of wall range

you only see the sidewalk as you crawl along wormy

not yet but soon

All the Maintenance of Roadways etc

while in the electrical stretches of stream

World siphoned City-wards; [evrythg]

it draws

it feeds on the countryside and its fields

it feeds on the oceans and rivers

it consumes the produce of glaciers on mountaintops

it draws on, dawning

setting trends and aggressively nursing the earth pressing for lifesblood

LIGHT POLLUTANTS and a prism of petals
