dear mother
dear father
i don't want to be your bother
dear sunlight
dear justice
i have this rusty wish to kiss
the leaves
the will leaves
some pried off lid of apple fun
oh girl
remember me?
divide my body
eye surveys the nation's hobby
i've failed
i've stayed
as winter preserved marmalade
terrible tasting orange rinds
caucasin sweet turpentine
i caveat
i displain
i hobo through these human trains
i bother
dear mother
behind the trees that hide my father
cut down the words that count his life
stroke ancient braille
and green Barstow
today i leave this thing i follow
i nail
this picture
this preacher drenched in mixture
this country
this baby
aggressive thoughts of stagnant maybe
i and you
burnt pinewood
melted candle canyons
terracotta floor
sweep the sand
prayed the land
it's only war
