Germ Philosophy






When the sound is thickest it's time to divide

your time or dive into this facsimile of water

for other than what it would not be

in this connection of severing strokes from afterglow

it hinges on the prix fixe axis of huffing zap

the importance of being ornately ingested.



Cannons slake their thirst, this the syndrome

the mobile camel of insertions and denials

as you come upon a proviso in the desert.



Something took you there in the clued jargon

of epistles and faulty nectar, nicotine of the gods

and gimlet-eyed puzzlers notorious as buzz.



Pierce the invariants, the concrete rictus

oft lingual opt subvocal sheering mechanisms

following the pillow toward an epistemology of sleep

in which dreams form an itinerant aesthetics

slow pulls of scruple, quadruple ethics,

rubbed eyes and rubies, a logic of locking on.



The club of dissatisfaction shadows the neon

it's cool to twist light at nighttime

like the rhetoric of reggae odds against the purplish

and the glimmer, that nimbus, the counterfeit

where insomniatic brethren turn their breath

to straw, fore of before and aft of after.



So to unbuckle the babysitter in high art's chair

the system of the ant farm reconciles real time

to the closed-captioned simulation for those

nearing impairment in sense horizon here

at last adhere the insert to the wee hours

between pronouns without referents

citizens of the parochial go jogglars.
