Tea Baron
absconded on horse back
excellent change of perspective
 (tea baron
in a panama)
that's you
talked
to the horse's flicking ears
Shaitans
By the tethered camel
Russians watch Houston,
this medicine will be quicker than your question.
Acropolis
from Athens
vintage postcards
I sent
so you could be attendant
to the cloud nets.
Reminiscence
This comb
binds time
in your curls,
each word
left tiny creased
folds of crimson,
smudges of butterfly wings
on dusty glass
(the shadow of money
on a courtesan's pillow
does not free her desire for it)
It takes so long to turn these words to nothing.
Propitious east calamitous west:
after Artemidorus
Zephyrus,
concussed
not butchered.
he,
by any means
arbitrary
considers clams
preferable to mussels
and
(it seems)
the brain of monster
is brain of rooster.
Anomie
The girl was hired for her capacity to scream
lapses cover small details
Ichthys never swimming in circles
behind Italian glass
(It's absolutely crucial no one notices
it's a black eyed fish)
the other one hangs head down
tail floating on surface bubbles.
Sleeping?
To have memory you must have language
That colour we spoke of
Is Πορφυρεος.
