Crusie Ship Sam’s Cult from The Humming Prole - Video by jdaugh
twisted in the cord (delete heard ‘round the world)
dead torpedos sleep in uniform
red tuxedo, rented to perform
unworn ground mine
undetonated land whale
watch me beach mountains
carrying everything in front of me
and the rented unicorn
miles of stage
killed ographers of sand stuck in shoes
and creases in the mirage,
with very fine sandpaper,
we carve out our breath for one another
try to ride the same raft
floating in the same rash
in the (insulated) bubble of blown out symbols
printing paper
cuts for
the already cut in half
catch me climbing beached mountains
watching lighthouses fade
in the industry of gone
in ocean plastic pants
(up to our neck)
deep dog breath
paddle back in
for charge-less breakfast
chew staples, gnaw attractive clocks
complimentary meet
and drop bones
dead ideas sleep in uniform
undetonated ideas never sleep at all
watch the ticking ground, up underneath you
blood red tuxedo
can feel the ground(up meat) thru the microphone
shock and brimstone hat
hard on the aw and yea
can you feel me trying to tip or float
“i gave it all up for the”
depends on the stage
hope, file, save (,hope,dial,slave)
(signed, Plenty Slack Rope)
performer in un-uniform
push heaviest stage
drag bloodiest costume through barely seen and some felt,
the layers of underlayment, singing for the tips (and thrown life floats)
where the tool hits subject
where the would sands back down to plank
And for those who jump
And for those who jump
shrink ideal
pharma-even-keel
keeping shadows under heel
bury hurried feelings for the ceaseless stagnant smile
top ten bones to pick
on the doctor’s playlist
writing yourself off
washed up under the bridge
smacked with a stack of scripts , a financed fist
up where paper make sign
(where sign enforces direction)
the army’s bullets are bourgie
sporting sun hats ’n soaking in pie flavored smoothies
the republic’s jacuzzi weighs a ton
oppressive crown molding and fake scholar sconce
hottest pool heat
we’re dunce
cornered and all me me me
assuming and snooty
child’s pose and doctor’s consult
all that and wolves meat
every bone hung out to dry
real muscle rides in limos
the limited imagination stretched
like a rubberband around a ball of rubberbands
pulls up to the same window
yesterday bounces back like a bad check
cancel police (the majority of us don’t enforce the books we read)
shade is security for some, power and control a family tree
the majority of us don’t feel the fruit on our branches
the hand in our hands, death was debt to most, living was a payment plan
to owe death (your) life
when the only way to breath is to exhale
the only way to live is to let go

Pleather Beretta
linen shotgun rancher
came too take his green land back
riding an invisible indian and combing a pet god
sticking feathers in dead birds
bald on their last good word
cotton handgun rancher
farmer of property and harvester of great culture
came to, on a capital I sculpture of himself
posing as a building (an aging mini-mall
who identifies as a sky-scraping landmark)
sticking time in dead boxes
coming up bald in camera flashes
silk semi automatic assault farmer
rifling thru earth with his patriarchal teeth,
red and blue to the root
property marker for a spear
(home-team skin) (call all wands swords)
pay the pipeliner
dress the drag in unshrinking swords
beg the tip with dollar bills
a two thousand forty pound million
linen oozie Rig
in the middle of the at-lunch-(ick) ocean
full belly swimming in tin foil and cracked pottery
everything stood up on the hairy side of pacified
limp shovels, deflated circles, and all
arms around a sugar cane in a salt suit
anything to make the blood taste better
dad
drops a piece of bread
kiss it up to the fda
to the (approved) harsh-mellow walls
and swamp-front fema camp views
beg the rip with needles or swords
a fist full of twenty pound millions
a sac of native heads
wool dagger
smallpox farmer
life poacher
bringing the flesh(ed out idea) to a boil
memory-foam revolver
something warm and convenient to sleep at night
copper pepperbox political grazer
came thousands dollar horse and steak(e)
to take back Burn
to vaseline the exploitation
to oil up the oil
in a new dinosaur’s tank
(far from middle)
living nowhere
corduroy switchblade
nylon pick-axe
dollar dad
drops another piece of bread
fist it up to the empty hole in you
to the noise of the State you fill it with
your custard constitution and whipped c.r.e.a.m.
I was born in this pool, it’s mine
die yourself and you only
thousand thread comfort(er) shotgun
sawed off work-hard fingers and the master’s tongue
lick every word asleep
combing a Algonquin scalp
tilling the rich rock
wearing a paper shirt
thumbs green with blood
(what are your weapons made of?!)

Famous Light Switch
suicide forest
sadness row
most beautiful sink hole
stubborn tourist in (one of) Yellowstone’s
hot spring(s)
record temperature winter
hopped up on jumping off
golden goose dive, backward swan, into the moving gate
going under and
coming back up for air
(waiting to be buzzed in)
going under
and staying under
nusle bridge
beachy head
angel of the gap
mount mihara
aokigahara forest
four-mile mr. chen (w/ binoculars)
‘maid of the mist’s bloated side-business
22 veteran falls a day
niagara gap
prince magnet’s viaduct
luminous veil
lover’s leap
so we’ll film it
put up a fence & security cameras
“can I help you in some way?”
“no way to be sure”
(some same pitch cry)
suicide tourism
(bureaucratic assist)
list of cliffs and hawk nests
‘risk of fatal fall’
broken-neck hotline
‘deliberate jump’
i put my backyard chair in direct line with the Douglas Fir
(over the neighbor &)
across the street
toponymy sky moving quickly behind it
‘state your bridge for the record’
(name all your passed on for the record)
drowned hat
did you tie on rocks
or just take a deep breathe of water
did you tear up in the river
list of tall sweat shops
where we come to a point
dance on it
then jump
off
and
on
forever
